Pictures!

Okay, I think the picture problem was something with Google Chrome. Which is weird because I use Blogger to update my website (or "blog") and it is run by Google. Who also controls the universe. So, I am using IE today and it worked fine. Of course, it could have been something wrong with all of Blogger and it might work today. But, alas, I am too lazy to test any theories. I will try it next time. Chrome is a great little browser, I would highly recommend it, except for my snafu the other day.

And pictures.
Hazel's birthday party: The fabulous cake that I made for her. I foresee many New Year's Eves to come I will spend making some sort of fancy cake. Which reminds me, I need to return the pan to Julie. I am sure she has been wanted to make doll cakes and couldn't, because I have the pan.
The birthday girl in her crown. I bought (not enough, but all the store had) crowns for the party and then a giant bag of rhinestones, and then double-stick taped the back of the jewels. The crowns and jewels and other things to stick, seemed to be a hit. Hazel still has her crown and wears it regularly.
Not as much as she wears the dress, however. She loves the princess dress. If I wasn't so busy, I would make her another one (one not so....Made-in-China-y). That way we could actually wash one while she wears the other.
Hazel and Geoff made a snowman and a snowdog the other day.
The snowman later collapsed on the snowdog. (the wreckage is not shown)
Rockin' the side ponytail and twirling.
Hazel started ballet. Which she loves. It is just community ed ballet, nothing fancy. But she is only three and she loves it. They even get to have a little recital at the end. Anyway, she looks adorable in her little ballet outfit. Geoff even managed to get her unruly hair up in a ponytail.
Ignore the messy house behind her (seriously, could Geoff not find a plain wall for her to stand in front of? I don't like my mess broadcast to the world, or my mom!).
Hazel has become quite the computer addict. I am now limiting her computer time as well as her TV time. I don't know about Geoff, however. Wait, I do know. He doesn't limit any one's computer time. His or Hazel's.

Like your mom never saw a mess or even had a mess of her own. Thanks for the birthday pictures, sorry I was not there. The ballet pictures are great. She looks SO serious. I am glad she is enjoying it. Let me know a head of time when the recital is and maybe I can make it down.

Pretty much ditto to your mom's comment. The party was great fun, and I love the pictures-the princess, the ballerina, and the awesome snow sculptures. I, too, would love to attend the recital, so keep us posted.

That snow dog is excellent. & Hazel is so cute, of course. Sorry about the conditioner on your computer. Oh, and the water. :)

Hazel's pose and face in the second to last picture, cracks me up. I'm glad you figured out the picture thing. The party was fun too!
