Chad as a construction surveyor, Kat as a SAHM. Our children bring us all the joy we could ever dream of. Chad is a musician, playing and writing songs on both banjo and guitar. Kat loves all the domestic arts.Katherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17275384594336484804noreply@blogger.comBlogger9125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2030032332923480263.post-61909387775301070532008-10-10T16:24:00.000-07:002008-10-10T16:35:44.730-07:00imagination kid and his kid sister<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDEweKKQOAUcrPU1XYuxr7Dbuc5HYTEWgDjqvmjbJ2OwWzYDDHQsck7EDCCExm37D0Zq_qqTMxVol5Ne6OmmTkGss9mnSpTsJYQO1rzt2Yf_n02sxulJgDZKHUGhfANE-ee8pU4CrB3-Ua/s1600-h/100_1166.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDEweKKQOAUcrPU1XYuxr7Dbuc5HYTEWgDjqvmjbJ2OwWzYDDHQsck7EDCCExm37D0Zq_qqTMxVol5Ne6OmmTkGss9mnSpTsJYQO1rzt2Yf_n02sxulJgDZKHUGhfANE-ee8pU4CrB3-Ua/s320/100_1166.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5255672853242460866" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDCGXDtlvvX2hRdO5jVtyrVD1SH3qAoj-Il9gaP4IRWpX9V7woszG30pyaYfZkpreXgV5Ci4yCHg1ba0zsv1jEitLg3pROalURqyFtMB4fGBF7Gh16raH3KhGAKHdN-0SAwnob3ZdwyqJc/s1600-h/100_1167_edited.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDCGXDtlvvX2hRdO5jVtyrVD1SH3qAoj-Il9gaP4IRWpX9V7woszG30pyaYfZkpreXgV5Ci4yCHg1ba0zsv1jEitLg3pROalURqyFtMB4fGBF7Gh16raH3KhGAKHdN-0SAwnob3ZdwyqJc/s320/100_1167_edited.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5255672586308226642" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0SnmxQ2fESD8R-8fRolJu0IP0sQJ5Jxx5QCIurv6wu9YY9LRzL-zh4DWnGX5-qcL7Tx2puK_2V5hThfprFvoRu1rBgmcKHf21zvQxarlhddCzPe-Nuy950uz8ivqgk9_E8BfyHEWxIuOE/s1600-h/100_1174_edited.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0SnmxQ2fESD8R-8fRolJu0IP0sQJ5Jxx5QCIurv6wu9YY9LRzL-zh4DWnGX5-qcL7Tx2puK_2V5hThfprFvoRu1rBgmcKHf21zvQxarlhddCzPe-Nuy950uz8ivqgk9_E8BfyHEWxIuOE/s320/100_1174_edited.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5255672429798285458" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr8cPg6ziX-51bPgcJGHdDMWwr9ByH9d36CCT_yTMOrw8gdKPm_UrzK9manvakcVZcsSwafETl_OlSMcyzJdzoW8zefQ0-0UBZKfH5TEwEHaXer1oa0XXne8iJ5Hpp7I-sITYw8HKQHOr9/s1600-h/100_1162.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr8cPg6ziX-51bPgcJGHdDMWwr9ByH9d36CCT_yTMOrw8gdKPm_UrzK9manvakcVZcsSwafETl_OlSMcyzJdzoW8zefQ0-0UBZKfH5TEwEHaXer1oa0XXne8iJ5Hpp7I-sITYw8HKQHOr9/s320/100_1162.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5255671055303868674" border="0" /></a><br />T-dog has been calling himself an "Imagination Kid". He uses his super power of imagination to make the world a better place. Gotta love him. He also just got his first hair cut with scissors. Might not sound that exciting or look like that big of a deal, but he did great! He had so much fun. I love being able to see his eyes and he loves that his hair is still long.

Chad's got a job offer working a construction surveyor on a 2 year hospital job in <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl">Everett, WA</a>. He'll probably be on his way toward the end of the month. Then he'll be back for the kids and me after we sell the house. We'll probably live in Marysville (N) or Lynnwood (S). We're excited and nervous about the changes inevitable. We're feeling very blessed and watched over by our Heavenly Father.Katherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17275384594336484804noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2030032332923480263.post-53749247630079032162008-01-18T18:54:00.000-08:002008-12-08T18:54:40.584-08:00Making Monsters<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiApg7aaM0CTx_3zHdCEHXo59VzF-EbKoEWBPQFIRDS8E0CaJUqFHPyUbQS5Qkcc2xGyGasADbKak4gxCZRlmdyuSoXjDNrmtft7wwS1Gj1YoTf5AmW9KIM9yC_3GgFcpycIeqSDpF1AOXW/s1600-h/Kodak+001.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiApg7aaM0CTx_3zHdCEHXo59VzF-EbKoEWBPQFIRDS8E0CaJUqFHPyUbQS5Qkcc2xGyGasADbKak4gxCZRlmdyuSoXjDNrmtft7wwS1Gj1YoTf5AmW9KIM9yC_3GgFcpycIeqSDpF1AOXW/s320/Kodak+001.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5157017225736546818" border="0" /></a><br />Playdoh monsters rock!<br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1pg-UzrnD1RPzdH0ZGBFRR3aHgOOWsXKfB40fWdmqtYT0eygtE6TnSf9Q7Wkps20bRTaIudiRlA5HKGv1o6QH2ilqWsms4OowrM1m6tNfWeWBElcFuamKvnjO-GxtZWXEbrl1T2o9wY5L/s1600-h/Kodak+013.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1pg-UzrnD1RPzdH0ZGBFRR3aHgOOWsXKfB40fWdmqtYT0eygtE6TnSf9Q7Wkps20bRTaIudiRlA5HKGv1o6QH2ilqWsms4OowrM1m6tNfWeWBElcFuamKvnjO-GxtZWXEbrl1T2o9wY5L/s320/Kodak+013.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5157016538541779426" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVL8dOs2Fo-vmwfdke8zr5a_j39_Qgi-6BKxzJGcR5Vl2hyphenhyphenZQzbvcjnilXP8PphX67JvPjOXrmA_UKehf3gj-clI7Rmx2ZdSg1B18DABldEO6Ic25mwD6stLu8XN2boyQK-pBe-KFm6lGe/s1600-h/Kodak+007.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVL8dOs2Fo-vmwfdke8zr5a_j39_Qgi-6BKxzJGcR5Vl2hyphenhyphenZQzbvcjnilXP8PphX67JvPjOXrmA_UKehf3gj-clI7Rmx2ZdSg1B18DABldEO6Ic25mwD6stLu8XN2boyQK-pBe-KFm6lGe/s320/Kodak+007.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5157016839189490162" border="0" /></a>Katherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17275384594336484804noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2030032332923480263.post-79646409966660135862008-01-18T18:52:00.000-08:002008-12-08T18:54:40.727-08:00Hugs<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgteJonFX3OcaO3FjfJrrIAuuhR8zryJiOWllWYrQh1Osz91VWzqIjISRKXUyebIF5BSrDZPT2lArs5wFL28QQCJE9PasF-tOvuvpc90dNmtVjdr-bKw_-m7FJ6BnwOFoTUaGPek3Wr2L0n/s1600-h/Kodak+038.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgteJonFX3OcaO3FjfJrrIAuuhR8zryJiOWllWYrQh1Osz91VWzqIjISRKXUyebIF5BSrDZPT2lArs5wFL28QQCJE9PasF-tOvuvpc90dNmtVjdr-bKw_-m7FJ6BnwOFoTUaGPek3Wr2L0n/s320/Kodak+038.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5157015529224464850" border="0" /></a>I just love when the kiddos hug each other. <br /></div>Katherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17275384594336484804noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2030032332923480263.post-36349444887818817212008-01-03T18:48:00.000-08:002008-12-08T18:54:40.803-08:00T's 1st Self Portrait<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcNXh1TBJHTtB3FpJA-eARk94VsDSJiV5VV8M5Oe90lV7f-JCSpv94QQ2HMG5tI7bYJLaAO_3BLreOj1c3RDJckxDlRGntD7NOwmcvkCGk4lHCjGTi2kUepqszR8HURDdZ9im3Wx5UfE-u/s1600-h/Trey's+Camera+049.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcNXh1TBJHTtB3FpJA-eARk94VsDSJiV5VV8M5Oe90lV7f-JCSpv94QQ2HMG5tI7bYJLaAO_3BLreOj1c3RDJckxDlRGntD7NOwmcvkCGk4lHCjGTi2kUepqszR8HURDdZ9im3Wx5UfE-u/s320/Trey's+Camera+049.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5151448873651726674" border="0" /></a><br />Santa brought T a camera and he has had so much fun taking pictures.Katherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17275384594336484804noreply@blogger.com0
