phone number problems

We have had a horrible time with our phone number so if you call us and it is disconnected, don't worry - we know. Call our cellular phone instead until we get it fixed.

Happy New Year! Nate's parents are coming in for the weekend... photos to come!

Christmas Morning

Christmas Eve in new jammies... We had a wonderful Christmas Eve service at our church.

Sam's big gift: a wooden train set.
Grace opening her gift.
Rita was very excited too!
Ellen's gift was such a hit! She loved this little scooter and she can be pushed around on it.
Happy Birthday Jesus!

Christmas Eve Service...

A casual family shot from our Christmas Eve Service. Soon after this, things went downhill in the sickness department... everyone got sick between Christmas Eve and tonight. One visit to the ER, one visit to the peditrician and one visit from Santa! The morning after Christmas, we found real deer poop in our backyard.

Not your typical family party...

Classic

You better watch out...

1st Birthday Girl

She got her own cake and was so sweet when eating it. She didn't know if she was "allowed" to dive in so she did it slowly. She kept licking the cake and then we ended up giving her a fork.

" Can I Mama?"

Delicious!
Happy after a bath and her new toys and jammies.

Home Sweet Home

We are settling into our new home. We love the space! We love the neighborhood! We love the yard! We are starting to hang things up and ready for Christmas. We have had terrible trouble with the phone and computer lines (at my moms right now), shower heads (too MUCH pressure) and a toliet leaking into basement. We are going to redo the main bathroom soon b/c of the leak and damage to the floors and wood under the floors. Photos will come soon. Thank you to all who have helped. My friend Jen came out for two weekends straight - made us food, watched the kids, helped me decorate and we had a great shop at Nordstroms. I have a new neighbor that is helping with carpooling. Things couldn't be better!!!
