We loooooove snow...


By far one of the greatest memories made to date! Just watching Henry be so brave to go sledding all the way down the hill by him self... what a proud moment! The snow was coming down hard and we were laughing so much! We made snow angels and had tackles a plenty. It was over all a 10 for fun!!! We are enjoying all the snow and look forward to more in the coming days. Poor Saylor enjoys from inside, but we do hold her up to the window to watch a little of the fun. Fun it is...












We love you all...

Just wanted to say hello to my mom, dad, kath, may and family, gg and all the rest of our friends and family in Coos Bay! We love you all dearly and miss you. Happy, happy holidays to you all. May you all be blessed with the gift of love, laughter and joy this holiday season. This video was taken at about 8" into the snow storm! We went sledding too. Stay tuned for photos!

Just around the house...





Let it snow, let it snow, please let it snow...

At 6:30 this morning I excitedly took a peek out the window hoping to be surprised with a blanket of white, beautiful snow- no go! I was sad, but thought, oh well! Then, 7:30 rolled around and it started to snow, and snow and snow! It has now snowed about 4 plus inches and we hear that we are getting about 2-4 more over the afternoon and evening. We took full advantage of the beautiful snow and have already sledded, followed Henry around the neighborhood is his monster jeep and even made a couple of snow balls. It's wonderful and we've been enjoying it all! Saylor wasn't sure what to think, but mostly I think she enjoyed herself. This is what Christmas is all about...

Monster Henry, oops, I mean monster truck...

So, Henry got his Christmas present early. Don't ask us what we were thinking! The truth is that Henry LOVES his present. He even wants to go to the garage just to "touch it" he says. It's the first thing mentioned in the morning... "Ride my jeep, Mom?" he says. It's been great leverage for getting Henry to shape up and listen to commands quickly. I know, I should keep it a secret, but we all know that the way to a child's heart is bribery and candy, right? KIDDING. We promise to raise Henry and Saylor with great morals, manners and respect for all man kind. Scouts honor! This is a new generation...

A very merry year...

Christmas tree hunting at it's best! If I didn't have another present given to me this whole season, I would be happy... I GOT A FAMILY PHOTO and that is enough to make my year! Okay, I know it's not professionally taken and you can barely see Saylor, but it's the four of us, all looking in the same direction. This is the farm that we get our pumpkins and xmas trees from each year. Henry loves it and gets as dirty and wet as he possibly can. I have video to load soon of his great mud-puddle excursion. Until then, enjoy.
