Fight, Fight, Fight for Washington State!

I wanted a picture with the girls in Coug gear before the game tonight and realized they don't have any!  What kind of Coug dad doesn't have any gear for his kids, unacceptable.  10 PM start time is a little late for a Sunday, but we will be watching from snowy Cleveland!

Gramps

Gramps gives the bests gifts!  When the kids open these random, wonderful gifts we sometimes wonder what has gone through Gramps's mind to pick these but everytime we soon learn that they are the kids favs. This was a gramps gift to Kiara a long time ago and everyone of our kids has loved it.  I must admit though, no one has enjoyed this particular gift as much as Ava.  She thinks this is hillarious.  It makes the sound and she giggles.  And we love Ava's giggles.  Gramps you are the best.....

Where to begin....

Tom and I have talked about starting this blog ever since we moved to Ohio.  We never knew when would be a good time to start but have realized there is really no great time, so last night we decided to go for it.  One of the hardest parts of living so far away from our family is that our lives just keep continuing on, good, bad, fun, not so fun, many times funny and it is really difficult to share with everyone.  We hope that this blog can be a place where we can post and keep everyone in the loop about what is going on with us.  The Kearney family has a blog from Boise and I check it daily.  They live so far away from us but I feel like I know everything that is going on with them.   That is such a great feeling and I hope to be able to do that with this blog as well.  Our hope is that this will not just be post after post from me but posts from Tom and Kiara as well.  We told Kiara about this blog today and she proceeded to take about 100 pictures on my camera of things she would like to post.  Maybe we could even get MC on here a couple of times :)!
