Independence Day

As a temporary employee this week, I was drafted to help out with the 4th of July party on the decoration committee, with my deputy Kylie, of course.

 Bunting galore!

Boise - Happy New Year!

Between Christmas and New Year's, we flew out to Boise for a week with Tiffany, Tony, Jessica, Anthony and Annie. Grandpa Ed and Great-Woman Lynn drove down to join in on the holiday action! For New Year's Eve, we ordered Thai food, played games and had too much fun!
