If you have been to our house you will notice, this is not a picture of our house, but our future home.. that is right... we are moving! 2010 is going to bring new memories because mid December (yep one week before Christmas) we will be moving. Not far, just around the corner. We will improve our home by gaining an extra bedroom, bathroom and living room and a beautiful deck I am going to enjoy OFTEN. More news to come:

My great friend Kimmie asked that I update our blog. I am finally doing this after I finally remembered my username and password. Hopefully updates will now come more often.

Lake Tahoe!!

2009-01-28T20:41:00.003-08:00

We headed off to Lake Tahoe this past weekend and had a great time. We went with Brian and Elllie and girls and had a flawless weekend and enjoyed a beautiful snowfall on the way home.

Science!!!

2009-01-17T08:33:00.000-08:00

Last night was science night. Megan has been wanting to do her science project for days, so it was a nice quiet Friay night so we went for it. She was suppose to soak 5 different pennies in 5 different liquids (of her choosing) and then predict which one would work best. The last picture shows the winner!

Age of Sail

2009-01-17T08:28:00.000-08:00

Jared went on an overnight trip with his 4th grade class. It was called Age of Sail and they had to act as deck hands.. doing chores, commanding night watch (standing up for 2 hours) and sleep on hard wood with lots of noise. Needless to say Jared was a zombie the entire day when he returned. It was a great experience and despite all the hard work, he loved it.

2 Wheels!!!

After lots of trying Miss Megan has finally put her training wheels in the garbage. We took them off today and put her on the bike and away she went. What I thought would take all summer, took just one afternoon. Way to go Megan. Now we are headed for family bike rides!

Favorites of 2007

2008-01-30T08:44:00.000-08:00

One of my favorite memories in 2007 was the Hannah Montana concert. 4 Moms, 4 Daughters. One of the Mom's suprised everyone with a limo. The girls went out of their minds. This is my favorite picture from that evening. It kind of gives us a flash forward to their senior prom? Can't wait to compare the photos 11 years from now. It was a memory that Megan and I will share for a lifetime.

Go Abbott!

2008-01-28T20:38:00.000-08:00

This weekend, Kristina had a cheerleading competition at the San Mateo Expo Center. It was like watching the cheer competition on ESPN. They took first place. She did a great job and competed both days and practiced on Friday night. It is quite a comittment. This picture is from a competition they had in Tracy a few months ago, but you can see her in her uniform. Happy Cheering !

A Trip to the Snow

2008-01-17T13:31:00.000-08:00

We had a great time last weekend. We took a snow trip to Tahoe. The boys took a ski lesson and mastered the beginner run by Saturday. Megan and Lexie took ski lessons too and Ellie and I stayed with them on the bunny slope. They all got to ride a chair lift for the first time. It snowed on Saturday....snowing when we wake up is the best thing! We went sledding at a snowy driving range. We all had such a great time. The condo we rented was top notch (thanks Bernie and Matt).
