Ready for Christmas

Did I tell you I love decorating trees? We have a total of 5 in our house right now and I also decorated one for one of our friends. The bottom tree is our main tree. It took me a full day to do it all, but I sure had a great time and my wonderful husband brought me an egg nog latte (which I love) to help me through the day. I look forward to sharing the holidays with family and friends. To all of you that we will not see we hope you have a wonderful holiday. We hope you know that we will be thinking of you all on this special day and wishing we could all be together.

Welcome Snow

On our way back from Thanksgiving in Colville we saw our first snow of the year and yesterday (the 28th) we ended up with about and inch. As you can tell by this photo it is almost all melted.

Brinkley and her ball

Well the wonderful duck she loved so much is now in the trash as she tore out the squeaker. We now got her this hard ball that squeaks and it is now her new favorite.

Baby Shower

My sister in law is due in February and we had her baby shower today which was tons of fun. We were also lucky enough to have my brother and his wife here for about a week. It was great to catch up.

Dad

Dad we hope you know how much you are missed and how often you are thought of. We hope you are proud of our choices and that you always know we love you. Thank you for the laughs, hugs, love, and the years we were able to share with you.

Always.....

Brinkley's new truck

So here is our new truck. We decided to sell the Dodge due to the crazy gas prices (which are now not so crazy ha!). This is Andy's new work truck. It is a great truck and of course we still need a truck to haul Brinkley. For those of you that visited our 1st house you might recognize the fence...yep...this truck was bought from the couple that bought our first home. Funny story as they recognized Andy's screen name on the computer. He was able to tour the old place when he went to look at the truck and he said they have not changed much and that they are really enjoying the home. Small world.
