Through the Looking Glass

Or, in this case, through the trash can. At Target.

Tracy: At Target looking for a bucket to put light sabers and swords in. Turn around to this. #whereisfinagoing? #canttake13yearsoldanywhere

Jamie: Probably expecting to pop into some magical kingdom through the bottom...

Bethanny: So *this* is what happens when Alice goes to Target during Easter bunny season!

Matthew: Maybe Tracy was doing something crazy at Target and Fina was hiding her head like an ostrich

Bethanny: Also a very real possibility...

Jennifer D.: Why does this seem totally normal for your Family? 😂😂😂

Lynn: Jennifer D., you have us pegged!

Imagine That... More Snow

Snow day, no school! We got another 4" of snow, or so, over the weekend. Getting real good at shoveling! It was actually fairly pleasant on the deck this afternoon at 28 degrees.

Lovin' how the sidewalks get plowed first!

Dinner and a Show

Lynn and I headed for dinner at Odyssey Gastropub downtown and then on to Springs Ensemble Theatre to see The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. I thought about auditioning for this show, but chose Sister Act instead (impossible to do both). Thoroughly enjoyed the pub, and especially nice with Monday night pricing we had the whole enchilada from cocktails to dessert for about $90 (tax, tip and all). And thoroughly enjoyed the show as well!

How's that for the lighting at the pub?!

Woodworking Kits

The twins went at their first woodworking kits today. The instructions weren't the best in the world, but everyone seemed to have fun anyway.

Another 6" of Snow

The snow started late yesterday afternoon, and made the trip last night to the airport to pick up Matt a little longer than usual. This morning we woke up to 6" or so. We've never been this far behind shoveling the driveway, but it turned out to be a ton of fun for everyone, including the neighbor.

AJ had to try this out after seeing a Facebook video.
Didn't work out too well.

Fina made herself a chair. Didn't last long.

We helped shovel the neighbor's driveway, too. Sorta.

Fina got him a few times.

The courtyard always keeps its snow the longest.

Into the Woods

I took production photos for DCC's Into the Woods, running this weekend only. Tickets. Reminded me so much of Fina's last show in California, Into the Woods Jr, July of 2017. Here's a side-by-side comparison. More photos of Fina in the 2017 production are here.

Pikes Peak or Bust

It's Pioneer Day at DCC. Kinda gives ya a hankering fer the Colorado gold rush back in the day. An 1850s' day ya understand.

Careful, dude. It's 9 degrees out there.
