Basketball for the New Year

Some highlights from BJ's Select Game Jan. 24th, 2009. His Bothell Team is doing very well and right now sitting tied for the top spot.



Over the long weekend Bothell also played in the MLK tournament down at the UW. The team went 3-1 only losing in the semi-finals to Redmond, one of their bitter rivals this year. They ended up winning the 3rd place game, out of 12 teams, 3rd place is nothing to hang your heads about boys! Go Bothell!!!

Here's a team pic and a couple pics of BJ during the tourney.

Welcoming 2009

Despite all of the challenges 2008 brought, overall it was a good year for our family. It's crazy to think that 2009 is here already, but here we are and we hope this year will be as good for our family as last year was.

We had a fun evening bringing in 2009, just a quiet evening at home playing games of all types with the whole family. We played a few board games, some Wii games and had a great time. Here are some pics & a great video of B upstaging Bryan at a Wii game!

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
