first off, this is the cutest girl in the world, yes? 

yes

since we left baby's boot in mom's car when we got dropped off at the airport, mom had to mail it to us.  

thanks mother!

we love having the boot back!

we also really enjoyed using the packaging for our evening coloring.

we really enjoy trips to the mailbox when the weather is nice.  what about when the weather isn't nice?  well, then we just don't check the mail.  ;-)  true story.

like i mentioned in this post, it is so crazy how the snow stays if the sun doesn't reach it.   seriously, the left and right sides of the street might as well be two different climates.

so some houses are covered in snow, and some have not a single speck.  this house is lucky.  our house is one of the ones covered in snow.

the sun was really bright.  hence the squinting.

this picture deserves to be in here twice.  for some reason i love it more than i love most.  ps- her hat looks like that because she insists on putting it on herself.  i love it.

daddy daughter street hockey.  see the foot of snow in our yard?

she likes to fetch the ball and put it back on the stick.

and our neighbors have no snow.  i hope that was a selling point specially listed with their home right up there with granite counters and fresh paint.

they are so cute.

that night, we went to petsmart and the pet store at the mall.  i think that was two weeks ago tonight.  y'know... back when colorado wasn't covered in two feet of snow.

and these are from our group visiting teaching outing to gotcha yogurt... which after only two visits, i am totally in love with.

and you can tell baby loves it too.  she was soooo patient and well behaved.  it surprised even me! 

so these pictures are all from two weeks ago... when i was still taking tons of pictures... before i had my wonderful "it's gonna be okay" experience.

but at least now i'm a little more caught up.
