Pre-Halloween Photos

After a lot of work. . .













And a little bribing. . .















We finally got the desired outcome.

Coming Along!

The house is finally coming along. Steve and I are excited to move in, but we still have a little time to wait. We are also excited for our view up on high on the mountain.

What have we been up to the last few months?

Moving from our old house in Omaha back home to Logan!

Visiting our favorite home away from home in Montana, and doing a little work too! (Steve had help building the dock)


















Running an animal shelter (my kitty is on top). The other 3 dogs are not shown :)

Waiting patiently for our house























And visiting with our favorite cousins!

Millard/Omaha Tornado -- June 8, 2008, 2:15 AM

At 2 am, we turned on the TV because of the extremely loud storm outside our window. We could hear swirling wind, lots of loud noise, then the sirens.

This house is about 100 yards from our home. Amazingly enough, we had no damage in our yard or home.




The Storm was an EF2, which means winds from 111 to 135 miles per hour. I don't like tornadoes.












They are estimating that among Omaha, there are > 100 homes that were damaged by this storm.

Hopefully, we have had our fair share of tornadoes for this season.

Tired Boys

Willey is being a very good brother!

Best Friends

We brought Bert home yesterday. He and Willey are becoming fast friends already. It's almost like they intuitively know that they are brothers. It should be interesting to watch them interact.







Bert is still so small. He weighs only 10 pounds, only 1/8 what Willey weighs. He will grow fast enough though.

Kady the Cat

Kady does not want her picture taken.
