New Countertops

Our new countertops were installed today.  They came a day late because of the snow.  Here is the before shot, with our old, bad countertops.

Here are the countertops, with integrated sink, in front of the house.  You can see all of our 

snow in the background.

Our old countertops and backsplash had to be removed.

There were two workers from the countertop place and one plumber

Here are the new countertops.  The color is Sea Foam Quartz.  The countertops are made by LG, a Korean company, which means that the Gordons have two Korean cars, two Korean cell phones, a Korean Blu-Ray player, and Korean countertops.

We like them!

Seneca

Seneca turned three yesterday.  She had some neighborhood kids over for her birthday party.  We couldn't go anywhere because of the snow.

Seneca and her Dora cake, which was a family effort to make.

Seneca and the chef outfit grandma Joy gave to her.

Seneca's first haircut EVER!  She had five hairs dangling into her eyes, and her curlies were getting long in the back.
Happy Birthday to Seneca!

Snow Day

You don't get many snow days in Western Washington, so when you do get one, you have to take advantage.  We have a snow hill near our house, and the girls got to sled down the hill.  We had our old school wooden sleds, which were a big hit, and a new blow up snow donut.  All the girls went down, even Sarafina.  Seneca was very brave.

Grandma visit

Will try to get a family picture with everyone later. Seneca almost allways lives in her pajamas.

The girls before school, Seneca will sleep till 9:30 if we let her. We have had to drive the girls to school its been cold this week. Eowyn got a new bed last night, she did not get home to see it till 8:00 and was up late aranging stuff into her new spaces.

Nanni was able to see Seneca open her birthday gifts. She will be suprised to have another b-day so soon on Saterday. Mom testing the new toys.

Giana is doing very well in school and dance, and karate. Eowyn is working hard at school and her other activities. Gia is typing on the blog, and Shawn is back to work. We have a busy next week we get new countertops, and the girls dance for people at the nursing home. (will post pics)

Happy One Birthday / More naught baby

Sarafina turned one year old today.  She had a good birthday, and enjoyed opening her presents with her sisters.  Her favorite gift was the box of tissues mommy gave her that she pulled out and scattered around the house.

This is an outfit that all four girls have worn.  Sarafina looks good.

The naughty baby crawled into the dishwasher.

Here is a video of us singing happy birthday to the baby.
