Our House is (kind of, not really) Famous!

A few weeks ago, we got a knock on the door from someone asking if they could use our house in a promo commercial for the show Portlandia and we were like "sure!".  On the day of the shoot, they invited us outside to watch, and even let me help by calling "Action!" for every take!  They were so friendly and I loved sitting in that Director's chair!  It was a pretty darn cool way to spend an afternoon!

Loved the clapperboard!

I came out to check things out for a minute, but I'm a little more timid than my crazy little brother, so I spent most of the shooting time inside playing :)

Waiting for the next take.  Ah, the life of a Director:

It was a little chilly out there, so one of the ladies wrapped me up in her blanket:

Intense Air Hockey Game at Leapin Lizards

Score one for me!

I spent most of the game like this - laughing so hard I could barely hang on to my paddle, and barely staying above the table because my knees get weak when Harrison gets me laughing like this:

Okay, time to get serious:

Oh, is this not legal?

At this point we had an audience, so I pulled out my dramatic air hockey moves to wow the crowd:

It was a nail-biter til the end...and we have no idea who won!

Career Day at Pre-K

Today was Career Day, and since I'm almost 5 it's high time I start thinking about what I'm going to do with the rest of my life!  So of course I came dressed up as a veterinarian.  


As soon as I got to school, I set to work taking care of the sick animals in the classroom with the vet kit I brought.  You'll be happy to know that all of my patients are recovering beautifully and will be going home at the end of the day thanks to Dr. Love!

Another Day at Work with Mama

Mmmmm Cocoa Puffs!

And a couple of hours later - lunchtime!

Um Mom that is quite enough pictures for one day!

So she snuck a few while I was absorbed in my ice cream + comic books:

Then a little kitty took a nap under her desk:

To end the day we took a walk on the trails and I insisted on stopping at every scripture plaque, reading it to Mama and then asking to get my picture taken:

Could This Week Get Any Better?

Ah another home day...let's start with a nice cozy fire:

And then head down to the church again:

The snow was a little too slushy for sledding, but worked just fine for a snowball fight:

This is going to smart a bit:

That's just fine - I got him back!

A snow treat on our way back home:

One last picture before we head in for the day:

Another SNOW Day!

Snow day = morning snowball fight!

And that is coming straight for my head:

Ahhhh a nice warm bath after spending the day in the snow - this is the life!

Menchie's

It's freezing outside, so who wants ice cream?  Um, we do!

Huh?  Um, what?
