Done with Braces! Wahoo

Big Day

Finally the braces come OFF.

Dr. Silcher beginning the process.

Yeah. Look I get balloons and a pack of gum.

Mickayla's favorite assistant Rhonda. She is Awesome.

We really like Dr. Silcher and his staff. They are Top Notch.

Grand Champion

September 2009

Tasha entered a number of pieces of her artwork in

the Ravalli county fair. All of her pieces took a ribbon.

Most were a blue or red but on this one (my personal favorite)

a scratch art beauty, she received Grand Champion.

She was quite surprised but she deserved the status.

This picture does not come close to doing it justice.

Mickayla entered in the adult division of photography.

A hard category because there are so many. She got

reserve champion! Wahoo. The girls have done a great job and

we are proud of their artistic abilities.

Don't know where the picture is of Mickayla, if I find it I will post it.

Family Photo Shoot 1B

I thought everyone might enjoy seeing some more pics

of the family. I always love to see everyones pictures

of their families so I think everyone else does too.

We think this skewed face of Alex's is so funny.

A 1/4 of Alex's life is spent thumbing through the Cabelas catalog.

I remember when I was in Italy we met a lady from Australia

who had a son who's dream was to one day go to America

and go to a Cabelas store. And he was 23.

So I guess this phenomenon is all over the world. Go figure.

I don't even want to know what Tasha was thinking.

We were just goofing off and then as we were going through the

pictures Mickayla said she really liked this one. Me too.

The kid is crazy.

I like the month on Mickayla. It is a perfect little wavy month.

Notice when the rest of us take pictures of the

photographer the color is not always the best but

I liked this picture of Bryan anyway.
