We have lots of snow!

My mom wanted to see how much snow we have so here are some pics of the house and yard with the snow. Jake and I are learning to keep up on the shoveling but it's tough when we were getting 6-12 inches everyday for a while there. FYI - On Dec 26th Silverton ski area just south of us reported 40 inches in 24 hours! The pass to the ski resort was closed so no one got to ski it that day.... Wow! We want that!Baxter loving his yard....

The front

Lots of Vikings Pride in our driveway...

Finally the sun is out....

The Deck view - Baxter loves to sit in the sun on the deck...(when it's shoveled..)

The back yard, the pond/water feature in our yard is that dip on the right side of the pic....

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Enjoy a Christmas picture of my beautiful neices,

Kelsey (3) and Abby (5)!

Hope you all have a happy holiday season!

Getting ready for Christmas! Happy Holidays!

We finally bought a 6.5' tree this year! Yea! Merry Christmas!

And we finally have a mantel!! Santa better fit down the chimney! Baxter rests after a big vikings game.....
And this would be a cool picture if you were here to see it. Mars, Venus and the moon all lined up and framed by our window.... You can't see venus but it was an awesome view. Jake and I just sat on the stairs and stared at this perfect moment!

Video of our new House

My brother requested some video of our new house so here it is. My camera doesn't have sound so you get to see the driveway and outside, the deck and the yard and then some of the living room, dining room and kitchen and a little of Baxter trying to figure out what I am doing. Enjoy! Can't wait for you all to come and visit!!

Pics from August.....

August was a busy month for us. Besides moving, we had two friends weddings and my fantasy football draft. Here's one pic of us at Ray & Tara's wedding and then two from the draft party in our garage! So great to have a garage!! My fantasy football league is all guys and one girl that work at the Dam with me.
I think Sean (left) is asleep (just kidding) and Travis is getting mad..... We had lots of food and beer from the kegerator! Yum!

Oldie but goodie...

I found this pic while I was putting "stuff" away at the new house. I scanned it since I don't know who took it. I know it was halloween at the snake saloon but it's jake and I to a tee. This way if it's on the blog I know where to find it! Love it! and it was our 7th wedding anniversary yesterday. Thanks to all the family and friends who called and sent cards! We love you!
