Snow and Decorating

You can't move from the sandy white beaches of Florida to the snowy white mountains of Idaho without taking full advantage of the cold powdery stuff! We all went skiing just north of Boise and had a blast - Colin and Clarissa took over the bunny slopes while Duane and Caleb took on the harder ones... and Sally just tried not to be airlifted off the mountain! No seriously, we all had a wonderful time and can't wait to go again!




























Cuddles keeps trying to explain to us that, yes, she is an outdoor cat, but SURELY that doesn't apply when it is, say, below 60 degrees outside!







Below are pictures of our family room (with new couches and tables - yea!) And Colin and Clarissa's room - decorated in polka dots, it is very fun... and the kitchen - which I LOVE!

How time flies!

Oh geez... I can NOT believe that my last posting on here was back in November - when Duane was still gone for training, before Thanksgiving and before celebrating Caleb and Clarissa's birthdays and before my saintly mother-in-law flew out to help us pack out and move 2500 miles across the United States, before Christmas and New Years and... whew! makes me tired just thinking about all that has gone on these last few months! So I apologize to the two of you who regularly check my blog for pictures and updates - things have been a bit chaotic - but I'm back - tadaa! Below I will post some pictures from the past few months - lets see if I get them in any semblance of order...
