Flying like a butterfly

Twirling, twirling, twirling

Flood Pictures

The top picture is the Deschutes at Tumwater Falls

(the falls are behind me in this pic).

The falls were amazing.

Here is Scattercreek in the backyard.

It doesn't come close to the house so it's

fun when it's high and flowing so quickly.

New Year's Eve

We had a great New Year's Eve with the kids. Lauren & Carson came over to celebrate while Justin & Jill went to dinner for a couple hours. For the first 45 minutes the kids just ran back and forth racing each other and screaming. What could be more fun than that! They played for a while and Kyle made some popcorn and we had a little picnic in the living room. Justin & Jill returned just in time for our mini fireworks show, then we came back inside and counted down with everyone in New York and watched the ball drop. Sophia was exhausted and went downstairs to spend her first night in her big girl room! She loved it and slept perfectly fine all night!
