So ...

We're up in the Great Northwest again. Drove two long 14-hours days to get here. You might think from the pictures below that we drove thru a bunch of snowy landscapes. But we didn't. That snow below? We hit it just outside of Los Angeles. Not more than 100 miles from our front door. And never saw any more snow on our way here.







No white Christmas this year. :-( No sledding. No snowmen.

But look at this little doll. Can someone please take my adorable niece away from Big Dude pronto? I don't want him to get any ideas ...



Speaking of Big Dude ... This heard on the car ride up:

BD: "You all play nice now and take turns killing each other or we'll take those DS's away." ;-)
