Christmas 2008











Portland's Snow Blast 2008




The kids are so excited to play in the snow. We took the kids out sledding in their new snow suits. The snow was great at first then it kept snowing and snowing. At one point Portland measured 16 inches of snow!

Sesame Street Live



o





Grandma Beth surprised Madelynn with a trip to see Sesame Street Live at the Hult Center in Eugene. The 3 of us had front row seats! We saw all the Sesame Street characters, they sang and danced. The first half of the show Madelynn was just taking it all in, she was in awe. Then the second half she really got into it and even danced in the aisle. Madelynn had so much fun, her first musical! I can't wait to take her to more plays and musicals. This was a very special present from Grandma Beth. We love her very much.

Hunter and Madelynn love taking baths. Hunter is now old enough he can sit by himself and play with his sister.

Halloween 2008

























Hunter's first Halloween, he is dressed as a pirate. Arrg!


Madelynn is Tinkerbell. This is a special outfit because her mommy wore it for Halloween when she was Madelynn's age. Grandma Beth made this outift way back in 1983. Madelynn loved wearing her wings and really liked going trick or treating.

The beach in October

Madelynn feeding a deer in the backyard at the beach house. Hunter talking a walk with Grandma Janet and Daddy on the beach. It was such a beautiful day.



Papa Tony thought it would be funny for Madelynn to take a swim in the ocean... and almost gave Mommy a heart attack. That Papa Tony, he's a character. :)

Hunter in September






Having fun with his toys, Hunter is 7 months old.
He is really moving now!
