Tasha the Leopard

Lauren drew the cutest picture of Tasha the leopard... I had to take a picture of it!

A pretty photo of Emily wearing her purple glasses.

Valentine's Day and Art Hour

The girls are still enjoying weekend basketball with their friends...

Last Sunday was Valentine's Day... when we came home from basketball, Justin surprised us with tulips and chocolate covered strawberries that he made himself!

This weekend the girls and I took a painting class at My Masterpiece Art Studio. It was really fun!

Bend Ski Trip

We recently went on a ski trip to Bend with our friends and had a great time! Here is Amanda, Lauren, and Emily geared up and ready to ski. 

Our official ski crew selfie.

Pretty scenery at Mt. Bachelor. 

My view on the chair lift.

After a day of skiing, the girls like to swim at the hotel pool, go out for dinner and dessert, and hang out in the hotel lobby in front of the toasty warm fire.

Father Daughter Dance and Piano Recital

Justin and the girls went to the father daughter dance at school on friday night. The girls were SO excited!

Hanging out with friends at the dance. 

Post-dance ice cream treat!

On saturday the girls performed at the Oregon Music Academy recital. 

Emily played "Once Upon A Dream". 

Lauren played "Part Of Your World".

The girls' friend Justus performed too. Everyone received a flower after their performance!

We also went out to dinner at Meriwether's this weekend to celebrate the girls' great school reports cards and piano performances!
