Pictures from Tami

These are the gifts that Tami gave to Tim and I for Christmas. The pics are 8x10, then the frame is 3 inches on every side that she made around it. They are pretty big. I think we will put them up in our room.

This is the snowman that we made for our gifts this year. I think they turned out very cute. They were pretty easy to make.

Lots of Snow!

Here is Austin standing in front of the pile of snow that is in front of the house right off the driveway. Also I had him go stand in the middle of the back yard. As you can see it is up to his thighs.

More Snow!

These are pics of another 6 inches on top of the 3 feet of snow we already had. Tim got on the roof to shovel the snow off so we wouldn't get a cave in. The swings are almost buried to their tops. The 4th pic has a lot of snow in it. But I wanted you to see that the house across the street, their carport collapsed from all the heavy snow.

Aprons from Grandma 'B'

MOM,

This is for you. These are the aprons that my mom made for us. Tim and I at this point had not opened our aprons from her. We all have matching aprons. We will put them to good use. Thanks mom! Love ya!

These are the gifts that Jennilyn gave to the kids. Austin got sweatshirt and sweatpants, Brandon got a 3 pc. outfit, and Courtney got a storybook and CD about ballet stories and music to go along with it.

Here is Austin opening his Santa gift. He asked for Heelys. They are a shoe with a removable wheel in the heel of the shoe. He's been wanting them for a while now. So he was very happy to get them.

This is Brandon opening his Santa gift. He asked for Gator Golf. He was so happy to get it.

Here is Courtney opening her Santa gift. It's a Princess lamp that has music and the Princesses spin around.

CHRISTMAS 2008

Christmas morning! The 3 of them awake and ready to open presents. The next one is Courtney having her morning strreecchh. And our tree of 2008.

These are the headbands that Traci made for each of us. And the dolly that Pam gave to Courtney.

Christmas Eve 2008

This is Christmas Eve with Pam and Tami. Brandon was so excited to get all the art stuff from Tami. Courtney got a book and a musical snow globe from Tami. The next pic is of the kids opening the gifts from Tami. I put them in the wrong order. The last one is a pic of the pillow cases Pam made them.

Here are 2 more beautiful pics. The 2nd one is the trees in the neighbors back yard. The roof of our house is the snow on the bottom.

Scenery Pictures

These are pics of some trees around our house.

The last 2 pics are of the same tree. One is during the snow storm and the other is when we actually had a brief break in the snow. The sun was out to for a short time. I really like these pics.

As you can see there is a lot of snow. The first pic is the first little path I made to the garage. The next pic is coming out of the garage into the driveway. You can see the back corner of the van. You can also see the pile of snow on the garbage can. The 3rd pic is just showing all the snow on top of the house and the garage. The 4th pic is the pile of snow on top of the BBQ. The 5th is a pic of the snow piled on the swings.

Snow storm of 2008

This is the first of the record breaking snow fall in Spokane. This is what we woke up to on Thurs. Dec.18, 08. Tim had to be to work at 5:30 am. I had to help dig him out. He was an hour and a half late for work. The 1st pic is the steps right out the back door. The next one is the snow on top of the garage. It has been snowing ever since. We probably have at least 3 to 3 1/2 feet outside of snow. We are supposed to get another 3-6 inches tonight. It is never ending.

Hot Cross Buns Video

Austin's concert. They are playing Hot Cross Buns. I'm sorry for the view. The band teacher was blocking the view.

Austin's First Band Concert

Austin's first Band Concert. He plays the Trombone. He did a great job.

This is Brandon's latest creation of a rocket ship. I think he did a pretty good job. I asked him how he cut the box, and he said "With a knife." I didn't know that he had it. He still has all his fingers.
