Gotta Have One of These

Tanner's 1st birthday party was a success with pulled pork sandwiches and ice cream cake. The car party theme went over well with Tanner but we still got that timeless "get me outta here, i don't want to celebrate my birthday" face at cake time!

I think this may be the start of Greg's film career!

The Yared/Strand Clan in Tahoe

This one was taken in the pool at the Ritz in Northstar. The pool was 90 degrees, there was snow all around us and the outside temperature was in the 60's....ahhhhhh. (left to right....Sami, Greg, Kyle, Kayla, Cindy and Gab)

The Night Before....

The night before we left for Tahoe Kayla insisted on wearing her "Tahoe" hat with her Dora nightie and her rain boots...all over her pajamas in anticipation of her big trip to the snow.

Kayla and Brady Fox

The Fox boys came over to play. The only photo I got was of Kayla and Brady hanging out together on the glider - each with a baby in their arms!

More Dora (Kayla)

Kayla posing as Dora before her "adventure".

Dora the Explorer (aka Kayla)

Kayla is starting to morph into Dora.

How Big is Tanner?

This video is a little long but worth watching. Especially good when you get to the part when we play "how big is Tanner"... I think it's safe to say that he likes this game.

Dora? No, Kayla Sue!

Aside from all the silliness in this video, Kayla tells us her name - Kayla Sue Strand!

For Mia

These photos are for Mia....Mia made a similar "funny face" as a kid and I used to ask her to do it EVERY time I saw her.
