Professional Pictures

We had professional pictures done in October. I have always wanted them so for my birthday, Christmas and all other gift-giving holidays for the next few years, I got these pictures.

I love them!

Mei-Mei's purse

Hey, what's this I found? Hi Mom! I found Mei-Mei's purse. No, she won't mind if I have it..... I just want to look inside here for one minute, then I will put it down. I promise!

Mei-Mei

Mei-Mei plays reads books and plays with stickers with Chloe Jean and .... She makes her look adorable in pigtails!

Madison Leigh is such a blessing for Chloe and our family. She is here every weekend and is so loving and attentive to her 2 year old sister. Chloe loves Maddi and calls her Mei-Mei. Mei-Mei actually means "little sister" in Chinese, but in our family it means "loving sister, willing babysitter, hairstylist, librarian and entertainer."

Tacoma and Family

Daddy and Daughter THE SISTERS!

Chloe enjoyed the snow by making snow angels. Of course, she can hardly move in the fab snow suit she is wearing.

And Madison successfully built a snowman in our front yard.

Mount Rainier

Mount Rainier looked beautiful against the autumn colors. Keil did a good job capturing it on film

Keil, Chloe and I were able to do a hike in the fall before the park was closed because of rain damage.

Good-bye Salt Lake!

I love you Aunt Betsy and Uncle Jim and George! Good-bye!

Good-bye Jerry! I love you. You are MY Ju-Ju!"

Good-bye Donna! I love you and miss you. Thanks you for the toys, hats, bottles and everything that you gave me. You will always be "MY Donna!"

Good-bye Ellen! Thanks for blazing a trail for me here in Salt Lake!

Good-bye Shay! You were a good friend!

Good-bye George! Thanks for my first kiss! I love you!

Holidays 2005

We spent our first holidays together in SLC with our dear friends, Betsy, Jim and George. George was the boy who gave Chloe her first kiss - right smack on the lips!
