Still Snowing.......

It's so pretty out right now.....I wish we'd get snow like this more often.

The main road into the neighborhood.

Looking back toward our house.



Our Winter Wonderland

Our house...

Do you see Zack in the window?

Looking down the street.


Looking out into the back yard.

Coral berries.

Ice leaf.

My New Office

These are pictures of my new office at work. Dr. Kim and I spent DAYS putting together all of this furniture from IKEA. I think it turned out pretty nice. We still have to hang up pictures, but it is coming together nicely I think.




My new desk.

Snow Day

We have been having little "dustings" of snow here in Gig Harbor for the last couple of days. The kids were off yesterday, but the snow melted before they could have a chance to play in it. Today there was just enough snow for the kids to sled in the neighborhood.






Kelsey was either texting or talking on the phone half the time she was sledding.


Emily and her friend Mikaela had a great time.





My nephew Trevor and Jacob also had a blast.




I tried only one attempt to slide down the hill on one of those little sleds. Some how I turned completely around at the top of the hill, and went down backwards the whole way. This was also after I had just slipped with my legs flying in the air and landing on my back and bottom in front of quite a few of the neighborhood children. I'm sure they all had a good laugh at my expense!

A Little Snow Ball....


Kelsey had a friend sleep over last night. We had a light dusting of snow and they rolled the whole side yard into one giant snow ball. They left it sitting in this chair behind the garage door for me to back over, along with all the wet mittens they went through.

Happy 11th Birthday Emily!

Didn't I just give birth to this child like 5 years ago? Someone please tell my children to stop growing up so fast!

Emily's birthday request was to go to dinner alone without Kelsey and Jacob. We took her to Fondi's Pizza and her good friend Mikaela came along too.


Then we went over to Nana and Papa's house for some cake and presents.








Happy Birthday to my NOT so little Emily!
We LOVE you!!!
