Belated Halloween...Thanksgiving in Washington




Nadia was a ballerina for Halloween. She especially enjoyed meeting the dogs of the houses we visited. We really enjoy living in Missoula, Montana. It is a much more laid back atmosphere and Beth enjoys her practice and schedule.

We celebrated Beth's birthday and Thanksgiving and Black Friday by running away from Missoula. Beth didn't really want to cook a dinner so we just took a car trip to Spokane. We did quite a bit of shopping and ice skating and also visited the temple. There was quite a bit of snow flurries as well. I am writing this from the hotel bed as Nadia and Beth sleep.

So I have not been super at keeping my blog up to date. But I have a new reason why to do so: last week my hand-written journal was stolen from my car along with some other books (like my Bible!). Complete bummer. Anyways, I am going electronic for a while to see if this works better... or at least makes me feel better.

Nadia is really excited to have a baby sister. For some reason, just one name is not sticking with this one; we keep jumping around among three or four different ones.
We'll see.

Happy Father's Day!

I had a nice Father's Day as Beth and Nadia surprised me with a huge sign in the kitchen that said "Happy Father's Day" along with some of Nadia's patented artwork that she claimed was "ice cream". She was simply drawing her the best thing she could think of. We had a nice day at Church and then a birthday dinner with our friends Paul and Daria. Nadia very much enjoyed the pool there and especially riding on Daddy's back through the water calling him a "whale".

And a special happy Father's Day to Tiger Woods today. Another golf championship for a good guy. Not that we even play golf.
