Snow days...

Yesterday was a snow day, today is a snow day... tomorrow they are calling for sun and I hope we can get out of the house. :)

Today, Daisy tried out some "new" toys.

Kati loaned us a jumper... Daisy is still a little young for it, but I think she'll love it.
My sister gave us a Rainforest Jumperoo playstation. Daisy has loved getting in this and playing around.

We've been just hanging around today...Daisy has played some music while we watched the snow.

D-Fense!

Today, Jessamyn Anna (Losse) Newcomb is MASTER!!!

At 9:30am this morning, Jessamyn defended her master's architecture thesis! A small group of us came to support her (and learn about what she actually studied)!

She did fantastic!!!

While we were at Jesse's defense, the Williams ladies (Kati, Maggi & Hayli) watched Daisy. They had lots of fun together!
CONGRATS JESSE!!! WE'RE SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!

Snowy Sunday

Well we're sleeping in today...no church. Lots of snow outside!

David posted a bunch of videos yesterday morning. Hope you enjoyed!

I took some photos from the rest of the day...

Daisy in her snowsuit.David, Wade, Jim, and Marcus (who was in town) went down the street and played no dribble snow basketball.Daisy and I went to watch for 5 minutes just to get some exercise. We didn't stay out too long because it was so cold.Daisy on her belly.Today is Evan's birthday. A group of us celebrated last night with dinner at the Cellar and then games back at HOC.MarioKart was a hit...The boys played poker...Scotty & David were the last two.Folks caught up with one another (Terri was in from out of town...)
Jim & Daisy having some fun...Wade held Daisy while some Wii was being played...

This morning, we just lounged around. Here's Daisy just relaxing on a blanket.David using the meat slicer to cut up some cheese. We got a big block at Sam's Club, and David sliced it up and we sealed some to save, kept some out to use.Yum... look at all our stacks of cheese. I think we might be eating some grilled cheese soon...

These may not be masterpieces to everyone, but hey I'm her daddy and I'm biased and I say she is a masterpiece!

Wake me up before you go go

Well daisy is awake and happy after her little hour nap. She hasn't eaten in many hours and she isn't grumpy yet!

We were out of pancake mix so blueberry muffins are in the oven with water warming on the stove for hot cocoa when mommy gets up. Here are two videos of daisy just being daisy and the snow...

Let it snow let it snow...

Let it snow!!!! Becauuse... the fire is burning brightly... And daisy is dreaming of sugarplumb's dancing in her head and daddy will just have to dream of carol lees as they appear closed today... Off to make blueberry pantakes...

All through the house...

Not a creature (besides daddy) was stirring not even a daisy mouse....

The only noises in the house besides daisy's cough which two doctors say are okay... Is the crackle of the fire and the rumble of daddy stomach... Now that daisy is asleep maybe I can sneak out to carol lees...

Location:All through the house

Oh the weather outside is

Frightful, but you my dear daisy are delightful... All snuggled up in a blanket that has been more entertaining than any other toy this morning while daddy made a fire and debated whether or not to run out to carol lee's for some fresh made donuts and hot chocolate.... Yum!

The day after a great win...

Last night was a blast! Hokies won an amazing game in overtime! Wow! After the game, Lisa brought a pizza to our hotel and we chowed down.

Below are a few final pictures from the game last night:



Dongbo and Wade went to the game, too -- it was Dongbo's birthday!

Friday morning we slept in at the hotel. Here's Daisy snoozing in the room.


Once she woke up, I dressed her in her pink Nike outfit that our friend Jen gave her. Isn't she sporty and cute?


For lunch, we met our friends Ben and Emili and their two children. They are friends of ours from college and moved out to Los Angeles a year after graduation. This past year, they moved back to Virginia and now live in Charlottesville.

After we left Bodo's Bagels, we headed to Lisa's house to let Daisy hang out with her Aunt a little longer. We then went to Anna's place and hung out for a bit, ending our evening eating dinner with Anna at LittleJohn's.

We made it back in time tonight to beat the snow... I'm guessing tomorrow we wake up to a white ground!
