I'm now a Beaver!

That's right, I am now a junior at OSU working on my bachelor's degree in liberal studies. I officially started my classes today. Amazing that I can be an Oregon State University Beaver and live in Southern California. I love technology.

Happy New Year!

We just want to wish you all a Happy New Year!

Snow!!!!

We have been snowed in! On Monday, we received a few inches and then on Wednesday we received 2 1/2 feet of snow so far and more is expected to come. My grandfather said it is the most snow since the 40's. It may be a white Christmas for us our here in the DESERT in CALIFORNIA.... too funny. I like it better when the snow melts right away rather than lingering. Adam missed 4 days of work due to road closures even though his 1984 f250 4x4 has no problem navigating the snowy trail that is our road. The schools closed a week early so Nathan and Cassandra have 3 weeks off. We definitely feel Christmasy. Enjoy the slideshow!

A Visit With Santa

We went and saw Santa yesterday. The kids were very excited. Unfortunately, I didn't get what Jordan asked Santa for on Video (they rushed us through pretty fast this year). Erin asked for a baby doll and train set which I am certain Santa will bring. Jordan asked for a Thomas train set but I think that is only because we were right next to the Thomas the Train store.... so I don't know what he really wants. The video is cute...take a look!

Jordan's Birthday!

I cannot believe he is 5 years old!!! He had a fun little party at his grandparent's house. I made the cake. I think it turned out good. And for those who are wondering why it is not a Spiderman cake, as one would expect Jordan would want, he is now going through a Batman phase. He takes it very seriously by the way. He got so many cool toys for his birthday and lot of video games. I'm more practical and got him a coloring book, a shirt, a soft baseball bat and an Incredibles costume (it was only $2 at Target!). The highlight was the Wii that Danielle and others bought him. Needless to say he is really into video games.

The ribbon wouldn't come off this present so all the kids pitched in to help

Erin and Jordan Dancing at Taylor's Wedding (Adam's cousin ; Lisa's youngest son)

Don't they look cute all dressed up?!

My favorite picture - ever! They are so cute. They danced together for a long time.... I'll post a link to a video later when I get it uploaded.
