MP: that is very cool that Mr N is adjusting to his new visualness! i know that it made my world so different once i had them on...had no idea how little i could actually see beforehand lol.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend facing such a loss so hard when we lose a parent/parental figure.

We are busy planning a night away in Marysville so that we can go to lake mountain for the snow i am really looking forward to it, might as well embrace the cold hahaha.

Our party plan is a 'dragons in the clouds' party. DH tells the girls a story about the dragons every night (he makes it up as he goes) and it has been going for about 4 months now and the girls just love it. so loads of white tulle for table decorations and paper pom poms and a star pinata ('cause in his story 'stardust' is a dragons cryptonite lol). i am also going to attempt a castle cake...
