Class Act!

Boy if I've ever known a class clown...you're lookin at it! What a character! She is entertaining the church goers after a Sunday Morning worship service. Bashful???....not a chance. She has a friend everywhere she goes and if she didn't at first she will by the time we leave.

Christmas Tree Cutting/Sledding Party

I am so thankful for good friends. We have a fun tradition of going out and getting our Christmas tree the weekend after Thanksgiving. And it's a good thing we did cause we got 3 feet of snow the next weekend and we couldn't have made up to the good tree cutting areas.

Even more portraits

Kid Portraits

More Portraits

Family Portraits

I recently talked Morgan into getting our annual family portrait taken. He despises getting pictures taken, but out of love (& fear) he consented. And here we are

Rock Climbing

What Janessa lacks in soccer skills she makes up for in creativity. And once in a while she surprises us with her physical abilities. At Angie & Junior's engagement party Janessa climbed to the top of a huge climbing wall twice. Micah hollered and was pretty much lifted up the entire way. And Alysha was lifted up about half way.

Soccer Mom

I am officially a soccer mom. Today Micah & Janessa both had their respective first games. Micah's was at 8:45am in White Salmon (25 minute drive) Janessa's was at 10:30. They couldn't be more different in their outlooks on the game of soccer. Micah tells his teammates where to go and what to do...and Janessa is just there for the social aspect. They certainly don't take after Morgan or I in any way, shape, or form... =)

Friends

We....meaning the whole family are totally stoked to have our friends Steve & Brooke visiting us. Brooke was my roomie in college & Steve was Morgan's roomie in college and now we all have kids and we have (I mean we get) to take turns with the kid duty so that we adults can play. Steve & Morgan's play involved a cave, lots of dirt, and they were WAY past their curfew!!! Then Brooke left them with our combined five kids while we went out for fancy dessert and grocery shopping...the big fat chocolate cake was what Brooke ordered...and we both worked on it but couldn't quite finish it all.

REUNION!!

I can't believe that it's been ten years since we were in college. Well we had a reunion this weekend and what a great reunion it was. Who would have thought that in ten years we could produce a whole village full of kids. The five mom's pictured here have managed to bring 14 kids into the world!

Country Livin

Living in the Country definitely has it's perks. A natural "waterslide" practically in our backyard. It's actually our friend's neighbor's backyard but we have permission to use it whenever we want...

Bike Racing

Everything is a race to Micah. We have been going for a bike ride everyday for the past week and he will be WAY ahead of Janessa & I, then he will slow down and ask me if I can go ahead of him then he will get a little behind and start speed racing to catch up and pass me. It's a great game for him except for when he does it to Janessa...the scolding from her can be heard for miles. Especially because he cuts over in front of her just centimeters in front of her front tire causing her to have to slam on her brakes and scold him for all the world to hear. Its quite the ordeal...and for the past two days we have invited our neighbor, Pam, to join us on our racing/scolding/biking excursions...so I now have a witness of what I have to deal with...
