Christmas in '08

A fun year had by all. We spent some of the day playing and having fun with the snow - cause we had at least 18" of it! The other part of the day we enjoyed eating and just hanging out with the family. The boys were sufficiently spoiled and overall it was a good year - here's hoping for '09!

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

The Boys had so much fun opening presents and it was truly the first year that Brennen really got it. He was so excited and that made it alot of fun! Then we headed out to do some sledding!

The boys took advantage of the crazy snow storm we've had. I'm not entirely thrilled with the weather, it makes my job very, very difficult! Ah well, no one got hurt, I've been able to get to & from work pretty decently & the boys are having fun! Only 5 more days till Christmas - only about 3 more shipping days though!!!

Uh oh, the boys are in trouble

Boys couldn't hold it & tipped over

Even Daddy got in on the fun

A Visit with Santa

In our family, we have a fun holiday tradition. Every year we go to the zoo to see Santa. We've been doing this since BJ was 1 year old and it's the best place to go see Santa. There's never any lines and you walk right in and get to see Santa.

It's one thing I'm pretty adament about and if the boys are "too cool" to see Santa & tell him what they want, they're "too cool" for Christmas morning. As we say in our family, if you don't go see Santa & take a couple pics, Santa drops nothing off for you under the tree. It's all part of that wonderful Christmas package!

You gotta love B's shirt, tie & pants that go so well with his Mohawk. I think it was the first time B's worn pants in months.

BJ, Santa & Brennen - I can't believe how old my boys are getting!

Bothell Vs. Lake Washington

Bothell had their first league game today against Lake Washington and ended up winning 46-29 (I think). They played a good tough game and I was able to take some video with a new camera and I put together some of BJ's highlights. I'm still getting used to the camera so It will get better!

Check out the Video ... #20 finding the open man, playing tough Defense, stealing the ball, hitting the sweet jump shot & making some free throws. Go #20!!!
