trying to get a picture of the kids. Bridge- all I see in Emme's face is Ramona and Dawn. Don't you think?
Much better. Look at those cuties.


Opening presents with daddy. This was a present from Kiki and G-Pop filled with Alaskan books and a moose purse!


We can't wait to read it! Thanks Keeks and G-Pop!

Here's the moose cake I made that morning. More of a horse likeness, but you get the idea. I couldn't find any brown pipe cleaners without making a drive all the way into Anchorage so I just stabbed two branches in the sides for antlers. Much more authentic anyway. :)

Em decorated a piece of cake too which I dare say looks lovely.

G was a little too busy eating her cake to look up for this pic.

Poor girl looks like she's been caught red-handed. She loved every bit of it!
