BEDROOM MAKEOVER

We decided to change the bedroom's around after Ethan left

to work for the summer in Texas. Andee's room

is first. Her favorite color is green and she loves frogs.

She is excited to have her own room.

GARRET'S LOVE

Garret's favorite sport arrives. His team wore pink socks

for breast cancer awareness.

The crowd goes wild!

Garret started on the Varsity team this year as a sophomore.

He has been perfecting his shot. The Priest River game he started off with three

threes in a row. The coach was shouting "shooter, shooter!"

Yes he is!

Garret's biggest fans. (Briann's family went all out with

shirts for the family.)

We missed going to state by 1 point in overtime. Heartbreaking.

ANDEE PLAYS BALL

Since the middle school season is so short, the girls played in the Post

Falls league. They have the tie dye shirts and called themselves Kellogg Kaos.

Luckily, someone more qualified coached them, so I

was their scorekeeper.

Andee had a great season and really got a lot more aggressive.

By the time their school season started they had really improved.

They really love their coach, Jeff.

CHRISTMAS 2010

Nathan, Caitlin, Andee and Garret opening presents on Christmas eve after we got home from caroling and eating chili.

Parker on Christmas morning, the wrapping paper and bows is more exciting than the giftsl.

Cousin, Devon Kiser, was with us for a few months while he worked for the mountain.

He spent the holiday with us, Ethan got him a Bop-it.

Ethan and Garret gave us these photos, autographed of course,

as their special gift to each of us.

They shot and edited these glamour shots themselves.

Ethan's Shortcut

Ethan was taking the "shortcut" to work, the road was icy,

you can see the truck next to the people in the ditch.

You can see his tracks going in. Ethan wasn't wearing his seat belt :(

Lucky for him he was not injured. One small scratch on his leg.

He ended up in the water, but amazingly, he didn't even get wet

and was able to retrieve his cell phone.

The cummins diesel engine was also unhurt, and the cab didn't cave in,

just a little body damage.

One more cross country meet

October 30 we got to watch my niece Erica Wendt Richardson at the Big Sky CC Championships.

She runs for ISU. It was a very cold day, but proved to an exciting one. Erica won!!!

There is Erica running out front. Later in the race she pulls really far ahead of the pack.

DISTRICTS

District Cross Country Meet in Spirit Lake was a bright, sunny day. Jovi came to watch her Uncle Garret.

Jovi's closeup.

Aunt Caitlin loves her niece and nephew.

Briann was having fun taking pictures, Parker got his close up too.

Grandpa and Parker showing off!

Oh, that's right this is what we came for. Garret is full stride just a little to the right of center.

These two photos are backwards, this is part way through the race.

Garret had a PR this race.
