New Eagle in the Family

I am so proud of my brother Ben. He earned his Eagle scout award! Joe and I went to the court of honor yesterday. It was attended by a huge crowd of well-wishers.
"Can you believe all of these merit badges?!"

Mom and Dad on refreshments and photography.


We got to see many friends and relatives, including Uncle Leonard and Grandpa George.


Thank you everyone for a great birthday


Thank you, everyone. My big Four-O was really great. I'm looking and feeling younger every day!

Spirit!



Amaya is in the Upward
basketball program as a cheerleader this year. Linda is the assistant Coach for her team. The rest of us get to go watch and snack.

Strategies for Staying Warm














This past month has been really cold, and we've had lots of snow. I love it. It reminds me of winters when I was young. Seems like the last decade has just been warmer in winter than when I was a kid. The only bummer is that now its my kids who are getting all the snow days. I still have to go to work. So we are keeping warm by bringing in the firewood (Joe), stacking it (Amaya), bundling up and sledding (Joe), and by growing a beard (Will).
