Touchdown

While watching the NFC Championship game, Brett Favre threw a touchdown pass to Sidney Rice. After the touchdown Charlotte began singing the University of Oregon Fight Song (da-da-daaaaa-da-daaaaa-daaaaa-da-daaaaa). Guess we know she has been actually watching the duck games with daddy this year, and everytime the ducks score daddy sings the fight song with her. So, now anytime ANYBODY scores a touchdown it appears that Charlotte thinks that is an appropriate time to sing the fight song. GO DUCKS!!!!! Posted by Matt

Brothers

We are really kicking off 2010 with a Bang! Last Saturday, Matt's Dad drove to Tacoma for a visit that turned out to be much more than we ever expected. When Matt's sister arrived, we were shocked by Guy's announcement. Matt and Lindsay have a half brother! Whoa! Right?! Chad is 33, lives outside of Portland, and recently made contact with Matt's dad. Needless to say, we sat a little shocked for a few moments, but were soon packing our bags to drive to Vancouver for the remainder of the weekend so that we could meet Chad and his family! We had a great time! And look! They really look like brothers to me! He has a lovely family too; wife Leslee, 4 year old Maiya, and 7 month old Madelyn. And guess what... he is a DUCK! Season tickets to Autzen Stadium and all!

2010 and beyond...

It is weird to think that the last time we entered a new decade I was only 18! Whoa. And you can’t help but do the math… right?... I will be 38 the next time we close a decade… and Charlotte will be beginning her journey as a teenager! AHHHH! Life is funny! I got a feelin’ though that 2010-2020 is gonna be my favorite decade yet! Happy New Year! Cheers to 2010 and beyond!

Christmas Morning 2009

Mr. Mom Christmas

I think I may have caught a few photos on Christmas Eve and Christmas day, but for the most part... I was sick, sick, sick! Matt took the Mr. Mom role and made sure we didn't miss Christmas. As I lay in bed, Matt cooked the entire Christmas dinner- all by himself! ... the roast, the potatoes casserole, the fruit salad, the rolls, and the broccoli! With a little guidance from his wifey he pulled it all off, and I am so thankful for his dedication to his family!

I am still feeling really sick, but I had my infusion today, and will hopefully be back on my feet- and back to the blog soon.

Santa Train

We recently were invited to join Mia Mae and the Fix kids on the Santa Train! The train left from North Bend and went to the town of Snoqualmie (about 2 miles). When we arrived we got to meet Santa- Charlotte was super excited until the moment it was her turn to sit on Santa's lap. It was quite the adventure, but this is one fun group to hang out with- so a good time was had by all.
