Songwriting Sensation!

I'm not sure where this song comes from, she just started singing it one day.  I'm sure it's inspired by one of her favorite movies, "Barbie and the Diamond Castle".  Here it is, for your listening/viewing enjoyment:  Aurora performing her new song, "Diamond in the Castle".

My apologies if the video takes a while, I'm not sure how to make the file size smaller...

Happy Mardis Gras!

Galveston loves Mardis Gras, and with the celebration comes the carnival!  Aurora has been asking to ride a ferris wheel for quite a while, so it was nice to finally get on one (we had one nearby in Kemah, but it was knocked over in the hurricane and still isn't up and running).  She did well at the games, too, and walked away with a new kitty and iguana.  She had a blast!

 

 

Our little monkey!

How cute!

Some more new pictures...

Here are a few more pictures of Aurora. Grandpa Goat came for a visit and Aurora had a great time getting to play with him! She's becoming quite a reader as well, as seen here reading her Bible and then with Grandpa reading with her. Play-doh is one of her new favorite pastimes and she's been hard at work getting the hang of her new trike. Of course, like her daddy, Mario Kart on the Wii seems to be a favorite!

Some new pictures

Just a few new pictures so you can see how big Aurora is getting!

Vacation in Spokane

Aurora got her first taste of snow, and a white Christmas to boot!
Spokane is so beautiful, and so so cold.

Vacation in Phoenix

We had a fun trip to Phoenix. Aurora had tons and tons of fun with her aunt and uncles!
