Dessa

Just a few cute pics of Dess I found on the camera I haven't downloaded from for months.  Dess know how to work it!

It's so easy now!!!

Yay!  I can get pictures on here! 

 If only I could telepathically order my photos from my camera to the computer...

 It would be so simple...

 But that will never happen...

 We're finished here.

Still trying to learn to love the mac

Here are a few pictures from our Christmas in MT.  Such beautiful winter weather!  I'm still working on figuring out the mac, so hopefully this will not be too painful to repeat.

 Look at my adorable little niece!  And my adorable sister-in law (and spirit).

Hey, it worked!  It wasn't painful!  Next time I complain about trying to download pictures to our web page, tell me, "export."  That's the command I need.  Can't ever remember that one.

Port Townsend

We had a lovely trip to Port Townsend last week.  The weather was beautiful.  We spent our time visiting old friends, playing on the beach, collecting tons of shells and we even got in a little schoolwork.  Here are a few photos of our super cool, old-fashioned hotel as well as the beach at Fort Worden.

 These first three hotel pictures are of the room we stayed in the last night of our stay.  Water Street Hotel had such cool rooms, we had to try two of them!

Halloween

Ok, my pictures aren't the best, and my new Mac photo software is pretty wimpy, but here are the pics anyway.

           I call this one "The Power of Dessa!"

Covering the last three months

Spring dress picture and next a picture of the quail nest that was made while we were in Montana. Thanks to John and Betty for the wheel barrow which protected it! Unfortunately, the little things hatched and took off in the night or something because we never got to see them.
The following are photos from our trip to Montana. Some from the Missoula carousel, then pictures of the kids and Grandma and Grandpa with their chicks (you notice the hand towels on the kids' laps. After washing a lot of clothes, we got wise). Also, a few of the cousins at Ethan's house. One is of Uncle LeRoy opening his own personal blizzard package, and also a bonus of Uncle Mike and Dessa. I got a picture of Aunt Linnea and new baby Kendra, but they didn't turn out well, so we'll wait on those. I just realized that I missed posting the picture of Grandpa Mike wit Lily riding a horse, but if I add it in now it will be all out of order, so I'll post it later. Man, I wish it were easier to organize photos on these blogs! Also, there are more new pictures on the following post of Dessa's birthday and other things.

Every girl needs a scooter!

Dessa's birthday! 3 years old!
The girls are climbing out of a metal nest model at the zoo. This is the only picture of the girls at the zoo that we have. Brilliant, considering we took two still cameras and a video camera with no battery.
