One more trip back in time.........



One more trip back in time.. Here is a little bit of our Christmas adventure this year. We love having my family spend Christmas with us. Aidan lets Uncle D and Meredith sleep in his bunk beds. We fill our little house with people, laughter, presents, food and of course liquor. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday with your freinds and family as well.



So, this year Max started looking at little 50 cc motorcycles for our boys. I thought it was a terrible idea to get a 4 1/2 year old a motorcycle. "Way to dangerous,"I said, though I knew it was a losing battle. Max had gotten a motorcycle when he was 6 in Lake Tahoe, and those were some of his
best memories from growing up. Then I started thinking about all of the things that people do with their young children that are also dangerous. Like skiing, snowboarding, hunting, not to mention living in polluted air, and driving in cars while talking on cell phones, you know everyday life. So, I realized that anything can be done in a safer or more dangerous way, and I guess that applies to motorcycles. Also, he wears a helmet, chest protector, gloves, padded pants, goggles, and probably will have training wheels

SO after a little motorcycle rant, here are our Christmas pics from this year. My Mom, Step Dad, Brother and Sister, came down to Mt. P and had Christmas with us. This is a very relaxing and beautiful place to spend Christmas. No one has to drive anywhere (there's nothing open and nowhere to go) and everybody gets to watch the kids enjoy Christmas morning. The boys did get their motorcycle. Its a blue 50 cc Yamaha peewee called the Blue Bombito (Daddy's bike is also a blue Yamaha called the Blue Bomber). We all got plenty of presents, not that any of us needed anything, and then we made a snow hill and fort in the front yard. It snowed all day! I think it was the best Christmas ever!!!!!
