AAAh, birthdays

Goofball.






Well, you know, birthdays come all too soon, don't they. Todd and I celebrate together. Amy outdid herself by making homemade pizza, topped off with a DQ peppermint chocolate ice cream cake!!

Uncle Todd and Aunt Amy took Hunter ice skating on Liberty Lake today!

Sweater

This is a sweater that I finally finished knitting and am blocking the pieces getting ready to sew it together. We will see how it fits.

Jeff's Birthday and miscellaneous

Todd and Amy's house with a beautiful new floor.




Grandpa and Hunter playing cars.




Jeff's birthday - the cake with Hunter's favorite car on it!




Hunter and I making cookies. The reason I am looking so anxious is that the pan is hot - you take the cookies out when almost done and add the Hershey's kiss.

Trip To California - Thanksgiving 2009

A little snow at the beginning. But that doesn't last long!


Ben made omelets for us for breakfast. Delicious!


Relaxing and letting the meal settle.

The swimming pool. (One of them). At Hearst Castle.



I can't begin to tell you how beautiful the Hearst Castle is. For example, the Egyptian statues are almost 4,000 years old. Randolph Hearst imported them from Egypt.
