Late Fall/ Early Winter 2015

At writing it is 18Dec2016, and I realize we haven't put much up for just over a year. Lest we forget, here are some late 2015 higlights.

Our back yard and the Wellsville mountain range.

Walking around church with Lillyth. She was that age when not being able sit through church was a foregone conclusion.

A giant pizza with our friends the Carlsen's.

Fix my shoe!

There is a TV show called chopped, a cooking competition where ingredients are not know until just before the competition timer starts. Here, our children had their own competition with cheese sticks, grapes, hot dogs, and squash.

Chayce working on her Chopped entry.

Quinton and I went to help a neighbor prep their landscape for sod. He wanted to drive the tractor, but wasn't tall enough. So we used a shovel instead.

Dad was getting a lecture on the solar system at bedtime.

Jillian to Stephen to Rachel's Ginger Beer shop in Seattle, we he was attending a conference for work.

We took the kids to Yellowstone for a couple days. Here we're waiting for old faithful to blow. 

Our crew next to old faithful. There is a buffalo just outside the picture.

Quinton want to climb the mountain behind our house. Dad and Quinton made it about 20 feet up. Then, 'we' were tired and needed to go back home.

The girls wanted to go ride the roller coasters at Lagoon. Mom and Zachary had no desire to go, so it was a daddy-daughter day.

We went on Rattlesnake rapids 4 times in a row. But this was late October, so we were cold!

Quinton's 4th birthday. 

If you're having a birthday, you must roast hot dogs.

I'm not sure what was going on here, but it must be preserved for posterity.

Lipstick doesn't make for an easy cleanup. 

Providence Canyon

The headband isn't doing much for that hair, but she's still cute.

Christmas visit to Grandpa Tueller's house, playing dinosaur with cousin Rogan.

Snowshoeing with Aunt Amy

Dad brought his backpack, just to see if snowshoeing with a load worked. 

I'm point to a cow moose on the hill being our house. If you zoom it, can almost verify this claim.
