Busy....busy...busy

The days are flying by right now...lots going on around here with school, work and the Holidays.  Saturday Nicole, Ashley and I went to the Christmas parade in downtown Puyallup which ends with Santa and Mrs. Claus arriving on a firetruck.  We hadn't been to this event before and it was alot of fun.   They then did a tree lighting ceremony.  We decorated the house as well as did some shopping.

I have been taking vacation from work every Tuesday and helping in Ashley's class in the morning and Nicole's class in the afternoon.  It is one of the best things I have ever done on "vacation" and am going to miss it when I am not able to go during my busy season  Today was report card day and we are so proud of the girls.  They are both great students - excelling in their classes and they LOVE school.  Being able to see them in their school setting has been very rewarding for me.

Tonight we went and visited Santa and then more shopping.  Tis the Season!!

Fall Picture Shoot

A few weeks back we went up to Bellingham and had family pictures taken....here are a few of the roughly 100 shots to choose from :)  Outdoor pictures are great! 

Wow - can you believe I am doing this?

I will get many shocked faces when they hear I have started a blog.  I am not one to over communicate...so this is rare for me.  However, I just got a new camera and have made a commitment to take more pictures of our life...so I figured starting a blog may help me in accomplishing that goal.  I enjoy the blogs I read and figured maybe others would enjoy knowing what we are up to. 

So - not sure how regular I will be - how creative I will be - or how interesting the subjects will be....but HERE WE GO!!
