Thanksgiving 2009

Someday... someday, little Sparrow will be able to reach the towering (and taunting?) heights of her older sister.


For now, Sequoia shows off her artistic prowess with this holiday-themed ditty entitled "Thanksgiving Tunnel."



Sparrow is content to at last tower over someone else- another little sister in the family.




The Sanchinis had a wonderful Thanksgiving 2009. Sequoia is still thinking about those delectable olives!

Yahooie! Yippee! Sequoia's Turning 3!

Well, she turned 3 in November and I'm just getting around to posting it now!

There was all kinds of fun stuff to do at Sequoia's celebration:

Tunnels galore...

Right this way to the balloon room extravaganza!

My family almost got swallowed up!

Bubble magic was a favorite with the younger crowd

And of course, hatching my plans to take over the world while sweet Grandma Iris and dazed cousin Lucas stand by.


I've got Grandma Karen in on the plan now, but Lucas is going to take a little more convincing.



Thank goodness Uncle Chris stayed after the festivities to help me with his superior medical skills. I have developed a nasty habit of swallowing puzzle pieces a la Curious George and have become a frequent flier to the imaginary ER. Nothing a little tickling, surgery, and band-aids can't fix.
