Happy New Year

Shit...Where did 2007 go? I guess it went where every other year goes.
I am just going to post a bunch of photos from the month of December today.
I'll keep it short and sweet. We hope you have a great 2008. Make sure you eat some pork and sauerkraut on the first for good luck. We have a pork roast in the crockpot right now. I'm showing Buttermaker how we do.

Sometimes you get the bear and sometimes the bear gets you.

Faye looking for her first Christmas tree with Mom.

Cut the tree down Buttermaker!!

Georgie, who works with Aunt Katie bought Faye these awesome Browns pajamas. The Browns had a great season and Buttermaker was happy.

But then the stinkin' Browns blew their playoff hopes and she was pissed.

We are really happy that the TV show American Gladiators is coming back. It was by far the most entertaining idiotic show of the late 80's early 90's. If you don't remember watch this. It should refresh your memory or at least let you in on how much fun it was.

Chalk these next two photos up to plain old good genetics.


Every Christmas Eve day we go to John Helmer the Haberdasher and buy hats. Pete and Michelle have gone with us the last 2 years. We not only had Faye with us this year but Adam Daneen came all the way from London to share in the tradition. This is a good group photo. Check out our friend Granny Gums playing Santa Claus. She made it extra festive.


Pete and Michelle...new chapeaux's

We had dinner at our house Christmas day. Whitey and Sorenne. Matt, Illick, Corky and Thor came by for Turkey with all the trimmings.
Here's Whitey and Sorenne with Clark and Earl.

Illick does his best "Diamond Broker" impersonation.

Gordon vs. Illick Portland 1918

It didn't take us long to get this oldie but a goodie. "Baby with Booze"

Mommy and Butter Eatin' Turkey.

Illick stole Fayes bib. (And he needed it)

Fran took this next set of pics and they are AWESOME!

Sometimes it gets real messy around here.

But it's always a friggin blast!!

We'll Send you away with a good old fashioned out of focus kick ass photo. Happy 2008 everyone!!
