Morgan's 1st Ice Skating Lesson

New Year's Fun

We went with our friends, The Springs, sledding today. It is Sarah's 2nd birthday (not pictured because she was warming up in the truck) and we thought it would be fun to celebrate together.

Christmas in Wyoming

Morgan was so excited to test out her new saddle and go riding with Papa.
Morgan and Sundance


To say that Taylor loves Dolly is a huge understatement. She didn't want anything to do with Sundance or Chester.

Morgan helped Papa and Jere plow snow. She was very proud of her pile at the feed store.

Spoiled, Spoiled, Spoiled...........

Christmas 2008

When we came home from Church today, we had a great suprise. Santa came early to Morgan and Taylor. He must of known that we are going to be traveling for Christmas and have little extra space to bring those presents back home. The last picture is the girls with their "Nice Certificates" and letters from Santa.

A Great Wrestling Weekend!

Clint had two brothers on his team, Lukie & Bobby Ray. The first two pictures are of Bobby today at the wrestling tournament we hosted here in Deer Lodge. Bobby won his weight class and was voted by the coaches as the "Most Outstanding Wrestler" of the tourney.

These are pictures of one of our Senior Wrestlers. His name is Luke Ray aka "Lukie." He is such a funny kid - he thinks he is bad to the bone. He is one of the most dedicated kids on the team, and as you can probably tell he is "Special." Lukie finally got a win today, his first since he was in his second year of little guy wrestling (age 6). To top it off, it was a pin in :35 seconds. He said it was perfect, at a home tourny with all of his friends and family there. I have never heard so much cheering in all my life and of course a few tissues were passed around.

Christmas Play

The first grade performed "The Littlest Christmas Tree" this morning. Morgan did a great job. She was the alternate in case someone was sick. She was really torn because she wanted a speaking part but didn't want any of her friends to miss the play. The picture quality is very poor due to the fact we were in a dark gym, sitting on the bleachers.

Oh Christmas Tree.........

After church today we took the girls to find a cute little Christmas tree.

Waiting for Daddy to find the truck.

Tagging the tree.
It was perfect weather and just a little snow to top it all off.

On the way home, Taylor met a new friend. His name is "Black Dolly."

The finished product!
