Winter Break

This holiday season Sherri & I decided to spoil each other by purchasing a Wii Game Station. We also got quite a bit of traveling in over break. Our first destination was Carri & Jeremy's place to visit with family. They prepared a wonderful dinner, after which we had fun opening presents with little Elliot and Autumn. After spending a couple of days at their place, we decided to head straight up to Jim & Caroline's. We enjoyed hanging-out watching movies, relaxing, and playing a new 4-player Wii game together called "Marvel Heroes- Ultimate Alliance II." Sherri & I got home in time to spend a few days together before heading back to work. One afternoon we took a walk around Powell Butte and saw a hawk soaring over the meadows with a beautiful clouded sky in the background. It was a nice way to wrap up our vacation.
