Our Very Own Spot

My turn


Okay so I didn't actually dress up, but Ryan dressed up as Woody, Ephraim as Buzz lighter, Salome had two costumes: cowgirl and polar bear baby.

Can't believe it almost December, and I am just now posting these. Thanksgiving was good. My baby Brother Joel (19 yrs old) flew up and stayed with us and my older sister Jill and family came down from Seattle. We cooked together and ate a lot to together. It was really nice and pretty peaceful considering we had 2 babies and 1 preschooler in the house. But who needs sleep anyway?

Now it is time to think about getting ready for Christmas. I really want a simple but special Christmas this year. For some reason all the publicity and hype is really bugging me this year. We already have so much... why do we need more? Sorry, slight deterrence in thought, anyways...I am hoping for some snow when we are in Colorado... we had about 10 minutes of flurries here today... super exciting for Portland. Hopefully we will get to see you all, I know it will go quickly. We are looking at the 27th to 31st in Ft Collins...MAKI GO HOME FOR CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR!!!! (I know it is too much to ask for Wendy but that would be way cool too!) Okay no pressure Maki... just would love to see you... it has been so long. How fun it would be to be together. Okay, so that is all for now! Ciao!

Valerie,
I can't wait to see you at Christmas!!! And I can't wait to see your babies. I should have my new sleeper sofa by then so if you want to stay overnight at my apartment on your way to Ft. Collins, you are welcome to do so.

We fly in late so plan on just shuttling and crashing and picking up the rental the next day. Thanks alot though... we are actually going to be in the springs with my family for actual christms so we have a alot of driving to do... although it would be fun to see your place. Did you buy it? Can't wait to see you too :) Fun fun... it will be good to be back where you can actually see the sun.
