A Girl and Her Dog

A couple of Sundays ago, Mora went missing. After 3 nights out in the cold, snowy, mean streets of Chicago, she was found. While lost, she was deeply missed and we are so very grateful to have her home! Here is a little video celebrating the friendship of Mora and her best bud Matilda :)

Breakfast Time

It seems like every morning as we sit down for breakfast, Matilda has discovered a new sound or has something new to say. She is quite the chatterbox...must get that from her dad!?! Click on this link to hear what Matilda has to say this morning: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiF5awcc4ao

Cute as a Cupcake

While Matilda has made no attempts to crawl, she has mastered her sitting skills.

She can sit like it's nobody's business

Whistler, BC

From Vancouver, we took a two hour drive up to Whistler. The drive was absolutely beautiful.

On our way we stopped at Shannon Falls.

Shannon Falls is the 3rd highest falls in BC, rising over 1100 feet.

When we arrived in Whister, we walked through the snowy village before heading up the mountain on the Whistler Gondola.

Once up the mountain, we went inside the lodge to warm up with a cup of cocoa. Matilda passed on the cocoa and ate a few cheerios.

Next we boarded the Peak 2 Peak Gondola which is the highest lift of its kind at 1,340 feet above the valley floor. It is also the longest unsupported span of 9,921 feet...the longest continuous lift system on the globe.

Matilda had a blast and enjoyed the amazing views.

That night we wondered through the village and stopped to watch the fire and ice snowboarding show. Pretty cool!

The next morning we enjoyed the most delicious cinnamon rolls.

Where's my food?
