It's perfect for the young lady being baptised in the springtime! What a neat story...Liv is an exotic fashionista already! That was very kind of Armida to give your daughter such a special gift!

One thing that was funny: our dog Tippy would SNEEZE after she stuck her nose in the snow. Ooooooh!

If YOU were getting SNOW BALLS in YOUR fur, you'd HOP like a bunny, TOO! How about the snow clods between their toes? You can tell Kara found herself a shallow spot to stand...all puppies gotta learn their lesson! Barkley, she just loves that ball, anyway.

That was a historical game. A nice experience to have together...even with the traffic and the stairs. You were being a good sport, Niki. I totally relate to those public events "en pregnato". After a while, the comfortable sitting positions get all used up.

That is so fun. The snow looks perfect for playing right now. Reminds me of when my brothers and I would go to the big open field across the street from our house up in Catskill and play chase with our dog, Tippy. She would tear around in the snow and wrestle with us. Even with the hard work of trudging through the snow and getting hands and wrists very cold, it made a lot of fun memories. Enjoy!!!

That play structure looks WAY cool! That would be great fun going down the slide with some snow on it too! Nice practice for climbing sleighriding hills. Good climbing, Jack!

My kids like Tetris just as well as I do. Just like the jaw-wrenching appeal of Slim Jims, Tetris is a great stress reliever. The appeal was not necessarily "winning" the game, but winning between players. During that whole era, someone's gaming notoriety was based on how far up the high-score list you got. The goal at any given time is to get as far as possible past the point of the excruciating anguish your fellow competitor reached when he hit his "ceiling". When it first came out, we'd have it going on in the background at parties, and people would take turns between refreshments. Back in the late 80s at the end of the cold war, part of the novelty was something fun coming from someone who sounded Russian.

When I saw "March 20", I just KNEW my Mom would chime in... Very exciting, Niki. You and Liv are a winning team!

What's not to love! Looks like a great way to start a fun day!

That's fun! I'm hoping that when it's Liv's turn to wear that shirt, the Giants can be in the Super Bowl AGAIN!
