Finally

No need to say more....

Knight Power

Well it is official: we are proud parents of an RHS student and football player! (I am not sure how the heck that happened!) The C squad had their first game on Tuesday night and won 51-0! Go Knights! It was so much fun to watch and the kids had a great time! As you can see Rylie is not one of the biggest kids on the team but he is definitely determined! Way to go Rylie we are so proud of you!!!

Quinault

Every year for the last 6 years (ok we missed one year but no need to get technical now!) we have spent labor day weekend with our friends in Quinault, which is about 70 miles north of Aberdeen! They own property right on the river and have always been kind enough to invite us back every year! It is one of the most beautiful places! This year it rained (see river photos below!) alot but it was still a great time with great friends! By the way all photos are courtesy of Lizzi!

This is the river before the storm:

This is the river after the storm-the very next morning!!!

Thank You!

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who was so nice after my surgery!
I received many amazing meals, beautiful flowers, and concerned phone calls! It was so nice to not have to worry about meals-Davey and the kids especially loved it! I am feeling great! No more pain in my legs, hips, lower back, or feet! It is so nice to be pain free after 2 years!!! So again THANK YOU!!!

Poker Run

Last weekend Davey took Rylie and his friend Michael to the Poker Run out by Vantage. They had a great day! No one got hurt but Rylie (of course) did wreck and broke his back fender...Although I was sort of puzzled as to why he looked so happy about it in his picture! :-)

Moon

Several nights ago the moon was so beautiful I couldn't help but take some photos! I especially love the one with my mom's little house!

Something From Me!

I thought this would be fun to do:
The first 5 people to respond to this post will receive something made by me for you. I get to pick what I make for you, but it will be especially for you.** But here's the deal:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It will be done sometime this year.
4. You have no clue what it will be.
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
** The Catch?The catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on their blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did will win a FABULOUS homemade gift by me (and possibly Sam if I can get his help)!!! So come and play along.

Boring?

I love looking at blogs. Some of them are people are I know and some of them are people I have never met and probably never will! I love to see what they are doing, the pictures they post, and the thoughts they have. In doing all this I have decided I lead a very boring life! Everyone seems to have something to say or something they are doing! So I am vowing to become more exciting! To take more pictures, to do more things, and to have more to say (is that possible? LOL)! So watch out and help out with suggestions!

Arriving Home!

This picture totally cracks me up! Rylie had been playing the Wii all day (so Lizzi says) by the time we got home Saturday night at 11. His hair was sticking up everywhere and he looked stoned from staring at the tv for too long! He obviously knew to do it when mom and dad were gone since we don't let him do that when we are here! LOL Rylie is growing his hair out (within reason) so it is a little out of control when it is not brushed! We love you Ry guy!
