Up to Date

Well, since we returned from our trip to Montana we have spent our time trying to get back into gear. Hence the lack of pictures. There really hasn't been anything exciting to post about. Except for today. Malia and I went shopping for a little bit, and enjoyed a delicous cup of coffee while we browsed! That's exciting enough! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Christmas memories

Remembering a wonderful Christmas/ New Year vacation in Northeast Montana!

~
The house where memories were made,The 100 year old homestead where it all started,The barn that held the milk cows and work horses,The ball field where tiny tots pitched and batted, hoot and holleredSunsets were admired,Precious moments were shared learning family traditions......Lefsa, hot and crispy right off the grill (Wow!!!! SO GOOD!!) Frosty, cold mornings,

Men all dressed up in a farmers snowsuit!Being happy for a place when nature calls, even if it is 20 below!
(ha... he's just playing around in an old outhouse)Enjoying the beauties of natureFamily members competing for the winreminiscing and sorting grade school papersHoping for some good loot in our stockingsWhen there's nothing else to do....Playing with puppies The Kleppen family who made all these memories possible!

We had such a relaxing and wonderful two weeks. Not a moment was wasted! We are so thankful for our families who make times like these worth every moment and memory! We are looking forward to new adventures and experience that await us in 2010!
