The Fairy Chef, Her Hungry Little Sister, and Their Very Special Daddy

The Fairy Chef agreed to make a special appearance at our house a while ago...

She was alarmed when she found the Little Fairy Sister so ravenous she almost consumed her favorite airy fairy skirt!



Unsatisfied by the sheer garment, Little Sister Fairy turns her curls to search out a more satisfying smackerel...



She eyes the toy bins, but can't make up her mind where to start.

They Fairy Chef recommends a rainbow ribbon snack, and Little Sister Fairy considers it an amusing choice.

They head together to the table, but decide to get started on their Valentines rather than continue the hunt for a fairy snack. Fairies are very loving creatures, you know, and they love making Valentines.



Sequoia's first Valentine was for Daddy.





Someday I promise I'll learn how to take videos in the correct orientation! For now, please bear with me!



The finished product- straight from the fairy chef to her very SPECIAL Daddy.

2 Little Curly Q's!

Both Sanchini girls have such beautiful little curls! Not sure where they came from or how long they'll last, but we're learning how to handle curly hair!

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

It was a cold, cold winter night, but the Sanchini girls donned their winter best and rode in style!






This house on Cielo Ct. in Rohnert Park is fantastic and well worth a yearly trip to gawk!


Sequoia found that guiding a sleigh is surprisingly hard work!





Try as she might, little Sparrow could not measure up as an elf recruit.


Bubbles make everything more magical!





Smiles all around for a fun family outing!

Christmas Morning 2009

Sparrow had no problem learning how to tear into her presents!




Nothing like warm fleece jammies and a new DVD on Christmas morning. Santa must have known we were ready to move on from letter sounds to constructing words!


More fun stuff!


Hmmmm... this thing required a tutorial from daddy!


Tia got to be here to see the suprise and joy when the munchkins came down the stairs to see the stocking full to the brim and presents under the tree!


All the toys and treats, and Sparrow's favorite gift was a tube of toothpaste!



After all of the excitement, Sparrow went for a little bounce for some R & R.


Sequoia, on the other hand, took advantage of special Christmas rules and decided to get sugared up!

Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad!

Merry Chrismas! Feliz Navidad!
