Winter Fun

We have been enjoying some time with our loved ones this winter and ha been having loads of fun!

Here is some footage of the little Christmas party we had at Lance and Kara's house with them and Vicky and Kurt's family too.

Here is Hailey sitting on Santa's lap earlier this December.

Finally, here is Matthew and Curt ice fishing!

Thorson Christmas Party 2011

We went down Friday evening after school and stayed with Lance and Kara and their kids.  We had a good visit with them and in the morning Janet and I helped Lance put up some Christmas lights on their house.

Then we went down to the green house for the party and ate some delicious food and enjoyed a nice visit with much of the family.

And then....SANTA CLAUS came!!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!....HO, HO, HO!

Ta,.. Daaa!!! It's Matthew Bird!!!! and Jack O Lanterns!

Matthew and Hailey & their mom and dad came to see us, and Matthew came in his bird costume, then we carved pumpkins!

Cement Work

We have been busy finishing our landscaping project we started a year ago.  We needed to pour a porch, steps, sidewalk and back patio.  Here are some before and after photos.  By the way it was 6 yards of cement, poured in 1 hour and finished in 2 hours more.

 Curt was jumping over the entire wet cement several times and Janet and I never saw it!  He can do that because he must be Super Man!  He sure works as hard as he plays though.

 Believe it or not, we got these ruts out  after the cement truck left.

 Janet was very happy with how it all turned out, which is the only opinion that matters to me.

 All done!  Wow, we were sure grateful Curt and Melissa helped us out!!!

 I am very happy how it all turned out too!

Conference Weekend

This is what we did Saturday while we listened to conference.
