Christmas 2008

Just a few pictures from our very Merry Christmas. It was quiet compared to last year and next year, we will have a houseful. It was good to have Finn and Elli and of course, Phil and Gretchen. We had fun opening gifts and watching Finn try to fix everything that was "Boke" or "stuck". Elli slept through the presents. Bernie got a Wii and will be challening little Bern when he and Angie come home. The motorcycle was the hot ticket item and Finn is already anticipating a ride.

Baby, It's Cold Outside....December 2008

We've had pretty frigid temperatures lately. Yesterday our thermometer read -15 and the day before we were up at Eklutna Lake, and it was -19. It's actually quite beautiful. It makes me want to have have a fire in the woodstove and make some homemade hot chocolate and bundle up.

Happy Birthday Bernie---25 Years Old

Bernie celebrated his 25th birthday this past Sunday. Here are some pictures of the happy couple in beautiful wintery Alaska. This picture is taken in Eagle River. We had a fun dinner with chicken haystacks and a delicious chocolate peanut-butter Coldstone cake.
