Look...
At what the cat dragged in...
He got home Friday night. So glad to have him home safe and sound. Now just to fatten him up...
View from the car on our snowy drive home from MT.
Does that say 20 degrees?
Burrr!
I've been meaning to post these pics from when Cole got home from science camp a couple of weeks ago. Brace yourself...
"I hope none of my friends are watching."
I missed my Bubba!
The boys were glad to see each other, too. I found them cozied up together the next morning watching a movie on Cole's PSP.
Ocassionally, one of the kids will get a hold of a camera and take about a million pictures of...well...everything. You know the ones - couch cushions, piano keys, sister's toes, people's butts, etc. Here are a couple of my favorites from one morning when Evie was in charge of the camera. Above -- a self portrait.
Mommy and Daddy - glad to be making breakfast together on a leisurely Sunday morning.
We grew pumpkins in our garden this year. Here's one of the six we got from our "pumpkin patch" (which, by the way, took over almost the whole garden and a good portion of the lawn).

The Happiest Place on Earth
We are home safe and sound and we had a blast at Disneyland!
Highlights
*My sister, Hannah, was able to trade her shift and come with us.
*Emerson was tall enough to drive his own car.
*Evie decided that this was her year to try Space Mountain - loved it!
*Soli's favorite was the rocket ships where Sissy took us flying way up high!
*Cole used his $10 Disney Dollars to buy a bracelet for a special someone instead of buying a souvenir for himself. Are we ready for that? (This is confidential Mrs. Fisher!)
*We ran into Mickey and Minnie (in their Year of a Million Dreams costumes) and got to snap a picture with them.
*I got to visit on the phone for twenty, uninterrupted minutes with my darling husband while waiting for the kids to ride Splash Mountain.

SNOW much fun!!!
We took the kids to my parents' cabin for New Year's and what fun we had! Dave (I mean Santa) got me a new camera for Christmas this year and so we took about a hundred million pictures of the kids in the snow. Here are a few of our favorites...
"I Love U"
It started snowing just after we put the kids to bed on the night we arrived. This picture was taken just after we noticed the flakes were falling. There is nothing more magical than waking up to a winter wonderland at Gramma and Grandpa's cabin. Sure enough the kids were up bright and early and outside playing in (and eating) the snow.
This cracked us up! When Dave and I got up this is what we found...Evie wearing Soli's snow pants with nothing underneath and bare feet eating a bowl of snow for breakfast. So funny!
Burrrrr!!
Mmmmmm! Snow for breakfast! "Mom, can I put brown sugar on it?" At least Emerson found his snowboots, although, apparently his jacket eluded him!
"Wait for me, guys! I just have to get my boots on and then I'll be ready to play in the snow! But, Mom, everyone else gets to play in the snow half naked!"
Soli with her cousin Ellery. They are two days apart...aren't they the cutest? They're almost 20 months here.
Here's our niece Haviland-7 with Evie-5 (cousins but they sure could pass for sisters in this pic!)
More cousins! Gaige ~10, Cole~11, and Emerson-7 1/2
My dad joined us for a couple of days at the cabin and he wasted no time showing the kids "how it's done" on the sled. This one might have hurt a little....We laughed so hard on this trip to the sledding hill. Good times, good times...
Where are the brakes on this thing????
Cole and Grandpa gettin' a little squirly!
Wipe out!
"Look, Mom! I'm doing it!!"
My new camera is so fast that it almost freezes these action shots. He's actually moving rather quickly down the hill!!
Click on this one to make it bigger so you can see the sheer joy on Emerson's face! Notice the snow flying!
Now that's a big smile! Soli loved sledding with Mommy..."Mo' ", she would say when we got to the bottom of the hill. So cute!
And there's my beautiful baby girl...warming her little fingers in Grandpa's vest. She just loves her grandpa!
Have I mentioned how much I adore my husband? Could he be any cuter???
