Annie the Accountant

After a very wintry feeling Saturday (snow, cold, strong wind), we were pleased to see the sun (and feel a bit of its warmth) today.

All in all, we've had a good weekend.

We enjoyed time with friends on Friday afternoon, walking at the Mall with Lily, River, Emily, Ashley and Erin--and then all returned here, joined by Eric, Brett and Greg, to have Annie's favorite--gingerbread pancakes--for dinner. After dinner, Annie and River got ready for bed together--impressing each other with their splashing and kicking abilities!


The rest of the weekend was pretty low key, we enjoyed getting to spend time together. Annie enjoyed having a spare bass drum (Eric had borrowed it for a concert this weekend) in the living room to play. She also has experimented a bit more with walking, taking just a few steps at a time (crawling is so much quicker at this point) but doing this a little more regularly. She enjoyed a trip to a local greenhouse where we all pretended it was much warmer than it really is.

Our weekend ended with a trip to visit our tax lady where Annie was quite fascinated by her cats, lamps, and explanations of our taxes. She was invited to join her practice at a later date if she's still interested (taking after the Olsons?!).

We hope everyone had a great week!
