Chevy & I have been having lots of fun….

One night we went to the Peachland Light Up , Chevy had a great time – she even got the front pager cover shot of our local newspaper!!!  Her grandparents were SO proud!!

Then it was my birthday and Chevy helped celebrate!

Here she is showing us how she can dance.  She’s dancing in the living room at Cindy-Lou’s house…funny thing, her daddy met Chevy’s god-father here many years ago  at Cindy-Lou’s house.

We took Chevy for her first ski of this season.

Here she is stoked to be on the high speed quad chair lift:
