Hey there.

I think I made a HAUL this Christmas!

And I still have more grandparents to visit...

Here Daddy. Let me help you!

We knew Nora came straight from heaven, and now we know how she got here . . . riding a rainbow!

Nora is quite attached to Fat Tony, her soft and cuddly raccoon. Grandma is quite attached to Nora! Eleanor is a bundle of JOY and brings us such happiness...smiles, smiles and more smiles!

Once the shoes come off, so do the socks!

Move over, Gerber Baby.
Gorgeous Nora is in town!

Baby Nora keeps us entertained. Quinn, Katy and Nora join Grandma and Grandpa for dinner.

Good-by Granddad.

Carrying Dad's casket to the burial site. A Korean War veteran, Dad is honored with a color guard at his burial.

Dad passed away Thursday, February 12th.

He leaves a wonderful posterity, the pain and suffering of his final days, and is now in a much better place.

Words fall short expressing our joy for him and the inexplicable loss as we miss his delightful presence.

Beautiful works of nature...

Prolonged sub-freezing temperatures do have at least one benefit. This ice sculpture is at the Homestead Inn in Midway, Utah. We do look forward to getting into the mountains and out of the poor air in our valley!

I tried to herd the little lady along so as to keep her away from the kids... She seems to think she's one of them though. Quite a sight for all!

Morning parking patrol takes on a whole new meaning as one of the local deer joins us. She seemed right at home and was quite reluctant to be anywhere but with the kids!

Grandma LOVES having cute little Nora visit. Nora takes it all in! She doesn't miss a thing.

Enthusiasm for life! Little Nora sure responds to her daddy...
This is her "SUPER GIRL" action video. She's trying to fly like Superman!

Hi out there!
Mmmmm its cozy in here!
On my way for now. Come on Mom and Dad. Let's go!

Happy New Year!

See the fireworks in the sky above me . . .
OK, its just the kitchen light. We're delighted to celebrate QUIETLY!

I'm watching you . . .

Don't let the cute pink suit with funny ears fool you. I'm not missing a thing!

Look into my eyes. . .
