A day on the ICE 1/31/2009

A fine day on Lake Cocollalla: We had a great group, lots of 3 t0 5 year old kiddos, and they had a great time. So Ice Fishing can be a family event and a better child care arrangement than the TV.

Sorry Sponge Bob!

And as it turned out a lot of fish were caught and the kids loved them. Kids were seen packing fish around all day! Moms will appreciate the odor when it is bath time. (Immediate to their return home).

It is unbelievable!!

The slide show on the right is from a hike that Rob and I took this Sunday. The pictures show English Point (Hayden Lake), Coeur d'alene Lake (we tried to get Eagle pictures and none around. They must have also decided that it's too damn cold!) and a panarama of Fernan. All these lakes within about a half hour drive from our house. Predictions for this week --- you got it! More snow!

Heidi, Tony, kids and Oma and Papa will really be ready for the trip to Mexico in February.

Christmas Activities

We were able to spend some wonderful time snow shoeing. It was beautiful!
We spent Christmas Eve and morning with Tony and Heidi, Elise and Riley. I thought this Santa letter was so cute. Elise was very excited for Santa to come.

SEASONS GREETINGS

May the holiday spirit of Christmas be with you and your family throughout the season.

Extending to all who "blog on" a New Year filled with good health and all the blessings 2009 will bring.

Palm Springs

We had a great time with golf and sun! Days between rain was spent golfing with our friends Dan and Gail. We also got together with brother Dave and his wife Peggy for a fun game of foot in mouth! No . . . . . Hand and Foot.

Now back to winter and weathering the cold and snow.
