Christmas Pictures

For Christmas this year we decided to take some updated pictures of Brett and his sisters Jennifer and Stacie and give them to his parents. We did these back in November, but had to keep it a secret because it was a surprise.

This is the one that was made into a big canvas.






Here area few others that didn't make the cut.... Me and Brett had a few differences in which was the best.... but since it was his parents, he won.






















Individuals that we framed for them



My handsome husband :)



We had a great Christmas and have lots of pictures to post. I will as soon as I find the time.

We got quite the storm the other night, and found ourselves digging out!
This is all from one night!

Looking Like Christmas

Our decorations are up- well we only have a few. And so far Brian hasn't tore anything apart.

I got a new computer and it has a built in camera, so Shalice talked me into doing Skype- and now I'm addicted. So who cares if Shalice is the only one I know with it. Well now Lorrie has it, just no camera. Maybe we won't get a phone line after all. So if any of you have Skype let me know.

I was at Lorrie's and we Skyped with Shalice in AZ.







And since it is officially Winter, the countdown to our vacation can officially begin.
10 weeks (minus one day) and we will be at this resort enjoying some much awaited SUN!!!!

Thanksgiving

Although I hate the cold, I love this time of year- always so busy and so much fun.
Thanksgiving this year was great, a good way to start the holiday season.
Lorrie "conned" us all into doing a 5k on Thanksgiving. Me, Lorrie, and Becky did one last year- and I thought LAST year was cold- wow it was cold this year.
I wanted to bail out, they Lorrie and Whitney made me feel guilty.
It was -2 when I left my house in the morning. It was MAYBE 5-7 during the race.


Tracy, Whitney, Me, Brittany, and Lorrie are the only ones who braved the cold. Oh, and Brent- who took all the pictures, parked along the route to cheer us on, and waited at the end.
Brett stayed home to rope in the "Genola Thanksgiving Roping". haha, I love Genola.


We ate at Brett's grandparents and had a great time.

Us at my mom and Fred's for seconds on the Dessert :)

Me and Brett have been gradually painting/"sprucing up" Mom and Fred's house. So far, so good. There are a lot of walls so we may be on the 6 month remodel program. lol

Brett and Fred working their magic.

It was Clay's (Brett's dad) Birthday and we celebrated at Dinner with the family.
