Spring ... and Mini-Golf

Spring has sprung in Portland. Lots of blossoms, lots of daffodils, and the top is down on the Miata. Well, at least some of the time. Today, it's raining pretty steadily.




I took Tanner and his friend Chris to Bullwinkle's Family Fun Center yesterday. It was a sunny Sunday during spring break, so you can imagine it was packed. We had a great time though.

Various Pictures

Tanner played basketball for his school again this year. Getting shots in a game is really hard, so I took a couple during a warm-up. These are from inside the new gym at Tanner's school.




Tanner also was an assistant coach for a team in our church's Upward basketball program. He had a great time with the kids.




We all got to ride the newly-opened Portland Aerial Tram recently. It was a gorgeous day, and since our friend Julie had gotten us all tickets ahead-of-time, we didn't have to wait in the long line.





A couple pictures of Tanner and his friends doing what junior high boys do best ... playing video games.




Tanner is also on the worship team at his school, and they did the music for chapel this week. They also read scripture.

Arizona Snow and Sunset

These are pictures my mom sent from Sun Valley Indian School where she works in Arizona. They had a rare snow on campus. It sounds like the beautiful sunsets are pretty common though.

Snow in Portland, Basketball, and Dogs

A few pictures, including some from a fairly rare snow storm in Portland. Tanner was out of school for a few days but loved playing in the snow.









Getting pictures of basketball is really challenging. I will try to get some more soon.





These are our great dogs. They seem to enjoy sleeping more than any other activity.

Various pictures from our church's web site

I grabbed a bunch of pictures off of our church's web site. They are completely unordered but fun to see.

Christmas, 2006

We had a great Christmas this year. Here are a few pictures from our gift-opening on Christmas morning.
