POLAR EXPRESS- ALMOST AS GOOD AS PANDA EXPRESS
LAST CHRISTMAS WE TOOK THE LONG TRAIN RIDE FROM WILLIAMS TO THE NORTH POLE. WE WENT WITH THE ENTIRE TIM AND VANGIE UDALL FAMILY. IT WAS GOOD TO SPEND TIME WITH THE OTHER HALF OF THE FAMILY THAT WE DON'T LIVE NEXT DOOR TO. THE HOT CHOCOLATE AND COOKIES WERE FAR FROM HOMEMADE, BUT THE COMPANY WAS GREAT, AND WE EVEN GOT TO SEE SANTA CLAUSE.
YEP, THAT IS REALLY SANTA CLAUSE. I KNOW BECAUSE I PULLED ON HIS BEARD AND IT DIDN'T MOVE. IN FACT I GOT COAL IN MY STOCKING AS A RESULT TOO.
TWO THINGS ARE FOR SURE...1-A LOT OF ANGELS GOT THERE WINGS THAT NIGHT. AND 2- ONE MAN ALMOST LOST HIS SANITY AT THE CONSTANT SOUND OF 5 BELLS RINGING IN HIS EAR.

LITTLE BACH-TOVEN
TIMMY'S FIRST PIANO RECITAL. HE IS TAKING LESSONS FROM JAMILYN SLADE AND IS REALLY DOING GOOD. SHE MUST BE A GOOD TEACHER!!!I THINK HE PLAYED LIKE CANON IN D OR SOME EASY SONG LIKE THAT, I CAN'T REMEMBER. BUT IT WAS LIKE A 4/4 COUNT AND HAD SOME WHOLE NOTES, AND HALF NOTES, AND EVEN SOME HALF AND HALF NOTES, AND IT WENT A LITTLE LIKE THIS..."TA TE TE TA TA." I REMEMBER THAT LINE FROM MY SUMMER MUSIC LESSONS WITH MR . CHENEY.
LOOK AT THE CONCENTRATION, AND THE CURLED FINGERS AND GREAT POSTURE...IF I HAD A RULER I WOULD HAVE BLOODIED THOSE FINGERS. BUT ALL IN ALL HE DID GREAT AND EVEN GOT SOME MEATBALLS AFTER THE CONCERT (WEDDING SINGER).
SECURING THE BORDER...
WELL WE TRIED TO SECURE THE BORDER UNTIL ZORRO SHOWED UP AND PUT AN END TO ALL THE FUN. NOTHING LIKE A LOW BUDGET HALLOWEEN.
Twinners turn 6. Oct. 11, 2008
Cael and Ki decided they wanted to go bowling for their 6th birthday, so we invited their best friend from St. Johns (Preston) and his family (the Wilson's) to join us in the day of fun. It's a good thing they had bumpers cause if not no one would have scored any points.
