Dear Santa

Watson has been a very very very good dog.... Most of the time! Thanks Grandma and Papa for the pillow.

Guebert Christmas 2010

 Below are a few pictures from the Guebert Christmas:

Watson

Our Bulldog Watson has become quite a wonderful dog, despite weighing almost 100 lbs!!  Not to mention, he has also become very photogenic.

St. Louis Holiday Traditions

Since we spent the Christmas Holiday in Southern Illinois this year, we decided to take in a number of the St. Louis holiday traditions.  This includes the outdoor lights at Tilles Park (strongly recommended!), St. Louis Zoo's Wildlights, Mass at Our Lady of the Snows, and a visit to Ted Drewes (Sophie's first).  Below are a few pictures:

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!!

Sophie experienced her first venture into the snow this morning and had a wonderful time!  We got out the old plastic dish sled and pulled it around using Watson's leash.  She was not able to walk but she really loved the RIDE!

Do You Like Green Eggs and Ham?

We recently visited one of our favorite new Breakfast restaurants; Eggsperience.  On their Kid's menu they offer "Green Eggs and Ham" and since Sophie eats just about everything we put in front of her, we thought "Why not?"  As you can see, she loved them!!

Apparently, many people order Green Eggs and Ham for the kids only to have them returned; "I do not like Green Eggs and Ham.  I do not like them Sam I Am!"

2010 Binkowski Christmas Weekend

Since we will be spending Christmas in Southern Illinois this year, we celebrated Christmas early with the Binkowski family.  We exchanged gifts on Friday night at Tom and Karen's House:

 

And visited Chicago's Winter Wonderfest at Navy Pier on Saturday:

Christmas 2010 with Sophie

Below are a number of pictures of Sophie preparing for the Christmas Holiday.  I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

Pictures with Santa

The excitement of taking a photo with Santa, Watson and Sophie far exceeded the final product.  Better luck next year.

My favorite things

Rudolf and Snoopy.... Sophie is proficient at pressing the buttons to play songs on her plush toys. She loves them!
