Alison's silly and The Storm's get a new fish

Alison was really in the mood to get her picture taken a lot yesterday.....so we tried to oblige her as best we could......

She's posing with the new toy box that Papa made for her......I think she could hide Grace in here without us knowing it.
Making a fashion statement with a nightgown, PJ pants, and an elf hat (complete with a jingle bell at the top)
Alison thought she was playing Wii tennis with Grace and me.......
Some sad news to report.....Saturday morning, we woke up and Dorothy the fish didn't.....I had been under the weather last week, and I'm usually the one that's feeding him. I think we forgot to feed Dorothy last week......big oops! Grace took the news ok at first, but after speaking at the memorial service, she cried. Poor thing! Anyway, we went to get a new fish at the pet store....another Beta, named Zoe Fishy Storm.....
The fish jumped from the container when I was trying to get it in the bowl....hopefully it survives the trauma of me getting it back in the bowl by it's back fin....

We have not had the camera out enough this summer, or else I keep forgetting to post to Little Storm's. Today is Ashley's birthday - Happy Birthday, Ashley! A few pictures of her and the girls from tonight....

Who can get the biggest smile going?
Grace told Ashley to go upstairs while we hid to jump up and yell surprise when she came back down....
One of Ashley's presents.....a new jacket......it has to go back....... :(
Grace "Ansel Adams" Storm took this photo of Ashley and Ali......
Alison taking a rest from playing Leapster......
Ashley picked Boston Cream Pie for her birthday cake......I put a 32 in the frosting before it hardened.....
