Artists

My mom does sewing for a girl named Maria. She came over yesterday to pick up her things, and Sydney was insistant on painting her a picture before she arrived. She came by and the girls gave her the painting they did. She loved it...here is a bit of the email she wrote to my mom, attached with the picture above:

Please share this with the twins. I really love the painting they gave me. I actually just bought a frame last weekend but what stumped what to put in it and the watercolor works perfectly. It even mathes the colors in my house. Believe it it not it looks like real art!! Please tell them thank you!

"Going on a Run"

Some of you may know this already, but Brandon and I are running the Vancouver, BC, half-marathon this coming May. In preparation and training, we obviously have been doing quite a bit of running. So...today, the girls came upstairs as shown above and announced to Grandma Kendall, "goodbye...we are going on a run!" She couldn't resist the Kodak moment!

New Coats

Aunt Corinne and Uncle Clark got the girls new coats for Christmas, complete with matching scarfs and hats...which she made! They are adorable and wear them nearly every time we leave the house!
