Sledding 08'

Rich ended up with the day off due to the ice storm that rolled thru on 12/26. So while he was removing ice from the driveway I took a trip down the sled hill that he built last week. Then he did too! It is fun..

Cracker was a very happy puppy after running down the hill with the family! I'm not sure who had more fun.

Powder Puff 2008

Shaler's Junior Powder Puff team. I was very proud that she decided to go out for Powder Puff Football. It was a very cold evening for the game. The Juniors lost the the Seniors. Oh Well... There's always next year!!!

X-Mas Lights 2008

Our House. Rich got all the Christmas Lights up for this year. I was in charge of the wreath on the door... As you can see, the lights didn't work! They do now after buying more at the store.

Garfield Pictures 2008

This is a moment that does NOT happen often! Very rare picture. Missy & Garfield. Missy likes no one enough to sleep with them... unless you're human. (See below)



Rich, the human petbed! Garfield, Cracker & Missy! Aww, how cozy!



Garfield loves to play outside after being brushed out. He loves the sun & the breeze.



Garfield playing with Shaler.



Garfield has the most awesome taste in motorcycles! He loves the clothes you get to wear!!



Garfield has the most fun ever playing in the shopping bags after our trips to the store. As you can see, he likes the bags even better than chicken!






I love this cat! Garfield entertains himself (and me) for hours!

The reception was a blast. Unfortunately, we missed the actual wedding ceremony, but still got to see a friend I haven't seen for quite some time and also party with a couple of friends from high school!




These were the coolest centerpieces. Had to post a picture.

The Wedding!!!! We had an awesome time! We got married in our backyard on the newly finished patio that Rich did himself. Pictures are in order from before the wedding til after the wedding. Pastor Chuck officiated. He was awesome. I found him on a Google search from Body of Christ Church. He was the perfect fit to do the ceremony. Rich & I had a great time! Our neighbors bought us our wedding cake. Chocolate with strawberry filling. YUMMY! We each smashed frosting in each others faces. I got the worst of it of course.
It turned out to be the best day for all of us. Quality time with everyone!
