First Gingerbread House

I had so much fun making and decorating my very first gingerbread house. It was the perfect indoor project for a cold, wet morning!

Snow in Southern California?

Concordia University hosted a Christmas celebration last night that featured a snow making machine. I had so much fun...but I can't wait to play in some "real snow" when we visit Washington this Christmas!

Some of the Concorida athletes also let me pet this donkey from the Live Nativity.

By the time we took this family picture, I was pretty tired as it was WAY past my bedtime!

Breakfast with Mr. Monkey

I shared a breakfast of banana oatmeal, banana yogurt, banana muffins and banana juice with my friend Mr. Monkey this morning.

He was still hungry...so I went to the oven to get him some more oatmeal and bread.

My mommy is so excited to have a new camera card for her camera, as she hasn't been able to "blog" in awhile...we lost all the pictures from our Thanksgiving trip to Zion National Park due to our unfortunate "camera problems". But she made sure to capture my breakfast with Mr. Monkey this morning!

Hill Repeats

I'm more than willing to jump in a workout with the team....even HILL REPEATS! Notice how I'm "stride for stride" with Josh - one of our top male distance runners...we've created a gap on the other runners.

How long do I have to hold it like this for the paint to dry??
