Cinnamon Rolls

Clarissa is home and she is the queen of making homemade cinnamon rolls. They are soooooooooooo good. We kind of suggest, ask, demand that she make them, but this is what

the kitchen looks like before she is done. Are the cinnamon rolls worth it? YES! YES! YES!

Everyone is home...........time for pictures.

Clarissa is going to Ireland

It is official. Clarissa is going to Ireland for four weeks starting in May. She is going to the west coast of Ireland to a village called Dooagh. There is a field school there that she will attending. Then she plans on taking one extra week to explore Dublin(so I guess that is five weeks.) How cool is that? I am almost as excited as she is, lol. Here is the link to the school and area.

Guest for Dinner.

.
This guy was outside in the backyard dining on bird seed. I was about twenty feet away or so. I don't think they see that well, because it took him or her awhile to waddle away. It is almost cute, and check out those pink feet.

Back to School

Back to Madison for Clarissa. It was a fast, but fun month. Study hard Clarissa!

Kaiya

This is Kaiya Kraner. She comes to our house Monday-Thursday while her parents are at work. I really enjoy having her here during the day, but for a few more days I have to share her. Clarissa is home from school for winter break and she has spent time with Kaiya and is quite fond of her.

Clarissa's favorite thing to do is be the first one to Kaiya after she has awakened from her nap. It IS the best thing! As you open the door and peer down, Kaiya gives you the biggest, sleepy smile and then she stretches. Ahhh, the baby stretch. The best thing about nap time!

Clarissa will be here until this weekend and if she's not in Spain for spring break, she'll see Kaiya in a month or two, unless she comes home before that :) Just think of all the fun stuff she will be doing in two months.(the baby, not Clarissa)

Kaiya is also being a good sport about having a camera in her face quite often, ;] I bought a new camera and she is doing a great job of baby modeling.
