My latest adventure has been attempting to learn Russian. Randy served his mission in Ukraine, so I thought it would be neat to learn the language. I got a preloaded mp3 player from the library with Russian lessons on it, and the first day I tried it Randy was with me and he said he couldn't understand what I was trying to say. It's difficult for my tongue to spit out some of those crazy sounds. But I've been practicing for a week and Randy said I'm starting to sound pretty good. I can only say a handful of words but I'm working on it. The title means the Russian language. I found out that Tripp speaks Russian too, he says "Da," all the time and that means "yes." And of course I had to post some pics of my handsome man.
I love this pic! He's in a tigger robe that is way too small for him, but still adorable.
Tripp has decided he is big enough to feed himself. Which makes feeding times extremely difficult and messy. Not only was he covered in rice cereal but I was as well. (seriously covered, it was on my face, neck, shirt, and pants.)
And we went to the doctor today and when we were checking in, Randy saw this sticker in the basket. So I just had to take it. Pretty sweet, huh? I don't usually find my name on those keychain and licence plate trinkets, so I thought it was pretty cool to find it on a sticker.
So here's the men in my life on the snowmobile for the first time ever, and yes those are socks on Tripp's hands -had to keep him warm somehow. Randy is also wearing my pink goggles. We were also pulled behind it on a tube, that was crazy! I fell off a couple of times and my body was surprisingly sore the next day.
On Christmas day, at about 6 am, the power went off. There was a huge wind/snow storm all night and we had no power on Christmas morning. So we opened presents by lantern, candle light, and flashlights. It was actually pretty cool. See how tired Tripp is in the pic? Thank you Aunt Zayna for waking us up at 7 am! Not Cool!
We were all a bit tired. I loved how all of them zonked out at the same time! Tripp is top left, then Asher, and Zelda on the bottom. Such adorable cousins! Here's a few more pics from our vacation: (Randy and I found that we never take enough pics, oh well)
This is Zelda, trying to be helpful, showing them how to play with the drums. It's actually pretty rare to see Zelda with her clothes on. One minute she has clothes and the next minute they've disappeared.
Being silly with Grandpa
Randy and Tripp riding the purple dinosaur. It was fun being able to see my family again and relax and play. We enjoyed our Holidays with family and are happy to be home now.
