| This "pool play" is alot cooler.... |
 |
| ...than the "pool play" where Ky has to play baseball in the hot sun to make it to the last day of the tournament! |
 |
| And this pool play... |
 |
| ...is right down the street... |
 |
| ....courtesy of our neighbors.... |
 |
| ....who love it when we use their pool. |
 |
| This week, Coco learned to swim... |
 |
| .....with her water wings! We are thankful for such generous neighbors! |
 |
| .......was a special day..... |
 |
| ....so special, that we had to celebrate with cake.... |
 |
| .....a head massage... |
 |
| ...(a good, deep head massage)..... |
 |
| .....home-made cards.... |
 |
| ....a new 3-Wood.... |
 |
| ....and lots of fun!! Happy Birthday, Dear Dad!!! |
 |
| ....has had us picking out and cutting down our own Christmas tree since 1993. Mark and I started doing this when we lived in Oregon and we have been doing it ever since. This year, it was Moe's first time to do the cutting! |
 |
| This is our second year at this particular tree farm and it is fast becoming our favorite as they serve free hot chocolate.... |
 |
| ....which really is HOT. It definitely warms you up after spending time outside in the cold looking for just the right tree. |
 |
| And, for a minimal price, they also serve fresh, home-made donuts!! |
 |
| Which were soooo yummy... |
 |
| ...and hit the spot! |
 |
| I captured this great Father/Son photo, but the timing was just right (or just not right) as I happened to catch a guy bringing a few boxes of donuts for his family to eat. He noticed that he might be in the picutre and as he walked by me he said, "My name is Adam and I am 21...just in case you might use that picture for a Christmas card." I told him that is wasn't a Christmas card...but he could make my blog! |
 |
| Mark, Ky and Rocky went fishing this week-end and caught this 18.9 lb King Salmon!! Rocky caught a 6 lb salmon and it sure tasted wonderful off the grill. We have the big one in the freezer....but I'm ready to grab it out and grill again soon! |
 |
| ...was the theme of the week-end..... |
 |
| It all started when we brought these 6 boxes home on Friday night..... |
 |
| .....and it continued throughout the week-end..... |
 |
| .....with us having to end at "Step 45" on Sunday night due to darkness, mosquitoes and fatigue. There are 79 steps, so we will hopefully have a picture of the end result in a few days. Time will tell. |
 |
| Looking good..... |
 |
| and still swinging!!!! |
 |
| We hope your day is wonderful times 90!!!! |

They are duking it out again.....
and sleep has been one of their biggest weapons. I thought they were both just resting up from the previous bug, but they each spiked fevers again this week-end.
Today, the weather was in the 40's and enough snow thawed so that we could make our way to the........
.......GRILL!!
