MIA

Yes, we are STILL alive and well! Life is going by in the fast forward mode lately I feel! Basketball season is winding down and the kids are playing soccer (yes, all three of them at different times). This is my LEAST favorite time of the year in the Tri-Cities because of the constant drizzle of rain and the fact that it is grey everyday!!! I just keep telling myself SOON the sun will come out!

I changed my blog background and looked back through some of the posts today, this is just what I needed to be reminded of how blessed I am, how good my life is and how happy I am! Things might not go as I want them to (and let's be honest, I like things to go my way), but life is good:)

Christmas in McCall

This year we spent Christmas in McCall, Idaho with Waylon's family. It was a wonderful time and we loved spending time with all of the Waylon's family. Olivia had a school assignment (real or imagined I am not sure, but it was fun) She made a picture album of our vacation/Christmas. The view from the front seat of our car while we are driving!

The kiddos in the van. Yea, we figured out the captain chairs can move to the middle preventing Michael's very bad carsickness whenever we travel. You can see we folded down 2/3 of the backseat and had tons of stuff!

Gotta get a pic of my cuttie while he is driving.

Another picture from the car. So Beautiful:)

When we were minutes from our cabin we saw atleast a dozen deer on the road just hanging out. Our camera was being spastic and this was the best picture I could get. They just sort of stayed, it was cool, the kids loved it!

We rented this HUGE cabin to stay in-it was so nice! Here is Waylon's Mom, Vicky playing ping pong with her grandkids.

Vicky and Waylon's brother, Ladd

Waylon's Dad, Stan and cute Brooke

Cousins so close in age and great friends-Olivia and Kelda, Brooke in background

The Duncan kids on Christmas morning--I just realized I didn't take a picture of them opening theri Jammies Christmas Eve! These are bakugan-all three of them love it!

Olivia and her cabbage patch doll

Michael and more bakugan

Olivia waving from upstairs bedroom that had a window to the living area (don't worry it had a metal prison bar on it so no one could fall)..all of the kids loved yelling down...of course!

Waylon with his Brother and sister working hard in the kitchen, Jay and Sariah (Sariah rocks)

We went and cut down our own Christmas Tree. This was a lot of fun and something I always wanted to do....Waylon's brother, Wydell with the tree. I took some other pictures of the tree and they mysteriously disappeared....
