'Tis the Season

Laura and I were able to put up our tree this past weekend. Yeah.


Christmas is forever, not for just one day, for loving, sharing, giving, and not to put away like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.

Turkey Bowl '07

This year, like every other, the guys faced off in a Turkey Bowl game. The setting was almost too perfect with the sun coming over the Wasatch front and hardly a cloud in the sky. We all arose early - except I was coming from work, to battle in a tackle football game on a field we all knew too well.


However, with the score tied the game ended early with a tackle by Jaso, that stopped Kyky from reaching the endzone. It was this play that took both Jaso and Kyky out of the game. Jaso was already ill and took a hit to the ribs while Kyky nearly showed us what he had for breakfast. These injuries forced us to play a game that could be played with fewer numbers and perhaps a little less contact.


So instead of a game on the field we took it to the b-ball court with an old-fashioned game called Tip-in, a.k.a. 21.

Happy Thanksgiving

Turkey Shoot

After a satisfying Lumberjack breakfast from Dee's, the guys and I spent the rest of the morning competing in a shotgun competition - famously known as the Turkey Shoot. It consists of shooting five clay pigeons, and the shooter who accurately hits the most pigeons is awarded a turkey. This has been a tradition amongst my friends for the past couple of years. Congrats to those who won!!







The Winning Trophy

Tranquility

In my quest to find something worthwhile to 'blog' about I came across this photograph. The summer after Jared and I were married we went to Martha's Vineyard. I grew up going there every summer and was thrilled to be able to take him. For those of you who don't know, Martha's Vineyard is an island off of Boston, Massachusetts - needless to say it's beautiful. Jared was feeling ambitious one morning and with camera-in-hand set out to capture the island's splendor - this was one of my favorites.

After much deliberation we decided to start blogging, but the idea is still very foreign to us - hence the reason we have no real posts...yet.
