Our Anniversary

By -
Last night, Sean and I celebrated ten years together. It is crazy that it has been ten years. Do not get me wrong, sometimes it feels like it has been ten years, but other times, it does not. We went to Kobe, a Japanese Steak House here in Anchorage. The food was wonderful, the atmosphere was great and the price was right. Autumn was very entertained (yet afraid of) our chef. She did not know what to make of the big fire, but she didn't cry about it. She gobbled up almost all of my shrimp. This was the first time she ever had shrimp and I had no idea she would like it so much.

We have a lot going on this weekend. We will be celebrating Autumn's birthday one week from today and have things we need to take care of for that. We need to get some things accomplished around the house, but we are making time for fun too. We want to go and see Coraline, go to the Museum of Natural History, go for a family walk and go see Kelly and Ashley cross the finish line of a 100 mile trek.!! That's right, I said 100 miles. Some people think that is insane, but I think it is cool. I would love to do something like that one day. They will get to see things the rest of us never will. Kelly will be wearing a GPS tracker so that we can see where they are. To check out their progress, click here.

I wish the best of luck to those guys and hopefully, we can get some pictures of them as they cross the finish line.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

Playing with fire.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e...

The man in the box.

Not really, it is just Autumn but saying the little girl in the box doesn't sound as cool. Autumn got in the box and was popping out of it. Then she told me, "Mommy, go that way." I think Autumn is on the tail end of this "cold." She already seems to be feeling better. Her nose is drying up, so that is good. I gave both of the girls a bath tonight, then I even got one! Emelia did something today that shocked me..... She rolled over. Of course that happened the day after you leave. Something else that waited for you to leave..... a 4.9 earthquake. It was the first time I've actually felt one since we moved to Alaska. It was, to say the least, scary to me! It did sound like a train/car/plane hit the house. Autumn was in rare form today. She told me that: She was going to take a nap on the stairs. Just kidding!! Such a sweet girl. Tomorrow we go to the Buckner gym for the first time with Emelia. I'm feeling a little nervous about it, but I'm...
