Here are a few of my favorites so far...I'm excited that we still have about 2 weeks left of vacation so there will be more to come...
This was not my favorite family shot but it was one of my favorite parts of our vacation so far. It was our first day of vacation and it's one of Howard's favorite things to do...see his Blazers.
My favorite boys :) This was Monday Dec 15... Howard's 40th birthday and our first day of snow (or was Sunday the first day of snow?) Well, anyway it was our first day playing in the snow. The beginning of Arctic blast 2008.
Just one of the beauties of the beginning of our wintry weather Dec 15th
Our favorite family tradition for the last 3 years is zoo lights at the Washington Park zoo in Portland. This was taken on Wed December 17th. Snowy but no real ice yet. We rode max from Lloyd center to the zoo...the boys loooved it. We even got some cool little lights from some police men we met in the tunnel on our way back.
My crazy crazy cuties!!! My big gift to Howard for his 40th was to take the boys with me to stay at a hotel (Courtyard by Marriott here in Clackamas) on Friday, Dec 19th so he could have the house to himself to play his favorite video game, eat pizza and watch movies. I had the BEST time with the boys...we swam in the pool, went out to Pizza Schmizza for dinner, explored all 4 levels of the hotel (I even found a little business center where I could check my email and get on Facebook) we ate candy shamelessly, watched xmas movies, drew pictures, ate more candy, played games and so much more. I had such a good time and Howard appreciated it SO much.
This is my favorite picture taken today Dec 21st of the maple tree in our front yard. The effects of Arctic Blast 2008 are visually breathtaking. I have quite a few more pics of our wintry wonderland on Facebook.
Daniel, my beautiful brown eyed boy who hates the camera most days has told me that he thinks he likes pictures now. I loved his sweet face in this picture. David is so full of life and creativity. I can't wait to see all that he is going to do in his life.
My crazy fun husband. I love him dearly. I've been saying that I've been married for 18 years already but actually tomorrow Dec 22nd is our anniversary and it will really be our 18th anniversary!
There is more to come and more to see already if you follow the link...
