All in the day of a NYE

New Home Owners!!!

(Pictures soon to Come)

Yeah! We are the New Proud Owners of a 3 Bedroom, 1550 sq. ft house. We have a very nice backyard that will soon have an addition playground"Our current undertaking project". We spent 2 long weeks painting and the girls room and Taylor's room turned out great. The wife insisted on a red Kitchen that ended up taking 5 coats of paint :-( ...... Boy that was one long undertaking, but I'm glad to say that it turned out great. Rachel also did a great job on the scotch guard in our dinning room. We were lucky to have some extra room upstairs and found a place to put all our books. Our new kid friendly Library!

Wedding Adventure

In this order left to right back to front"Karen, Natalie, Chris, Gary, ????,Bryan, ????, Luara, ????"

The Happy Married Couple in the Center Chris and Natalie Crowder. We ended up driving up to Pendleton "The middle of nowhere", to see our relatives in this happy momment. We did get a chance to see the lovely washington Temple, which I reccomend going to see if you have the chance. Our family had a great time with their cousins as usual. Diana got to spend some girl time with Laura and made some new necklaces. Taylor got to spend time with some other men "Finally!!, poor guy". And Chloe bear finally gets to spend time with her cousins and learn who they are. Rachel and I are always delighted in seeing family especially in times of joy. Aunt Karen, Uncle Gary, and family are one of the loved ones who have been there for us and always supporting us with their love and words.

Short Hike and WaterFall Quest


Our young and brave adventurer stares the great height of Multnomah Waterfalls right in the eye and laughs! HA HA HA He soon learns that if you get to close you also get very wet.

Our smallest bundle of joy was a little less pleased about the height and wetness. She decided the warmth and being tucked in tight with her blanky was just the right about of adventure for her. Her brave brother decided to run and see everthing as high as he could get. They stared off from the bridge to see the true might of Multinomah Falls.

The Fearless leader of the trio steps forward and gazes at the water fall as cons the others to folllow.
