A Year in Review



We are so excited Bethany moved back to her hometown and is close!   Family picture time always involves a bit of goofing around.  Skiiing in Idaho with the"old man" was fun.  The kids are fortunate to have great role models in their active grandparents.  Having a harley for the day to celebrate Neil's birthday may turn into an annual tradition or a permanent addition.   Madi and her girlfriends were beautiful for their senior prom!   Graduating with honors, Madi headed to WSU in the fall and made her Grandpa Doug a proud alumi (he is also a disquished adjunct facitilty member).  Grandpa Warren was over to help celebrate Bethany's birthday, along with her fiance, Bijan :-)  Peggy had a great road trip to Utah in October with her mom,  Grandma Mary, neice (Jenny) and her two sweeties: Will & Ellie.   We visited James and his family along with Justin.  The boys made it to Montana this year for deer hunting.  Peggy turned the big "50" in November and we managed a limited family photo in less than 20 minutes!

A visit from Jenny, Will & Elle

In between snow storms, Jenny, Will and Elle made it over for a visit.  What else to do than make cookies on a winter day!  We made some family favorites:  spritz, snowballs and Becky's version of Moose Munch.

Will and Elle are natural to the important job of keeping the cookie jar full!

 



Lets decorate!



Just a little more sprinkles!



All these cookies, how many days did they last????

  



Two Princesses:  Elle & Madi!



Princess & Prince :-)



Every girl needs a tutu!  Love the shoes El... playing dress up in Grandma Becky's pumps.  Amazing how well she maneuvered around!



December 2009

The holidays brought us together as a family, with family and friends. Bethany, Madi & Gray goofing around the tree for fun photos. We had 5 trees cutt down for safety... not easy for us tree lovers. Then tried to enjoy the snow at Snoqualmie, but it was raining :-(.

October 2009 - "Our Trail"

We love running or walking on the trails by our house; usually pausing at our turn around point - the bridge. On this sunny day in October we stretched, goofed around and Gray walked the rail!

The House of "W" begins with Neil & Peggy
