Zade loses his first tooth

Zade was ecstatic to lose his firth tooth. It had been wiggly for a while, and Tara talked him into letting her twist it out (much to his father's chagrin). It worked though. 

Art

Aria drew the following picture, which she was so proud of, that she made photo copies of it and began coloring them all. :) Here's just one.

Ward Christmas Party

With the holidays here, we just can't stop running into Santa. :) 

Floors

The prior owners of our home apparently had many cats that peed all over the carpets. We ripped out the carpet and had to paint the subfloor with Kilz to contain the smell of cat urine. Finally, we got a new floor installed this past week. It's nice to have a floor again. Here's just one of the rooms that was finished. 

Flying Friends

Tara looked out the back window and saw this. And then the just flew away...

Ice Storm

On Wednesday this past week there was a big ice storm, that knocked out power to our house for around 5 hours. We felt fortunate to get power back so quickly, as some families in Eugene still don't have power 4 days later. Although the ice can be precarious, it does make for some nice pictures.
