Miscellaneous.......

Since I haven't posted in at least a couple of weeks, here it is....the end of December and the end of 2009...where did the time go??? I am just going to post everything that I have pictures of and make it one blog with the last couple of weeks.

Here is this beauty sitting in the office at CHS!! Everyone has had fun coming in and checking it out. State Champions.....it still sounds good!!


Here's the best thing about the trophy, I think! This is great!! There are signatures underneath the trophy....from lots of football players, from lots of teams, from lots of years. What a fun thing!!

Dyrel and Michael adding their "claim to fame" signatures!

A Pep Assembly in honor of the champions.


Here he is, Marilyn...I told you Santa was REAL!!!

Our first dusting of snow for the season. Fine dusting it is!!


Colder than heck outside, but Kyle and Brad doing their yearly duty of lights on the house.

Be CAREFUL up there, buddy!!

Just like this shot so I thought I'd share. (-:

Marie turned 15 this year. Here she is getting her cake ready for all of us to enjoy.

Happy Birthday to YOU!!!

Big brother, Noe, home for the Christmas break.

Presents under the tree.

Paxton and Briar's Santas from kindergarten. Love them.

Here's the best part of Christmas: the opening of the presents.

This would be the one and only picture of Nicholas with a Christmas present. He did presents just like he does everything else....quickly! He had them all unwrapped before I knew what was going on. He didn't even save one for Christmas Day.

Here goes Chance.

He has wanted a pig for quite some time now....so, here is the pig he got!

Love the expression on Kennedy's face.

Cold and all, she did get her presents opened.

Briar had to show us that with it is possible for him to do a bridge even with a short middle finger.

Not wanting her picture taken, here it is.

These Nerf guns were a big hit.

Batwoman! Kaylee HATED this mask....it scared the crap out of her. So, of course, Kennedy wore it for awhile!!

Not sure of that mask.

Here is what transpired overnight.....YEAH!! First recordable snowfall...not just a dusting!

Can't believe that this year is almost gone. Crazy.

My very best friend in the world and her family!

Leslie and Mark

What true "Eagle" fans these guys are!!! Leslie, Mark, Matthew and Lucas. Love you guys!!

Eagle Pride

Here comes the football team being carried around town by the Connell Fire Department!! What a tribute to this football team! They carried the players over to Connell Elementary School, where they were treated like the royalty they are (-: They got to parade around the school, giving the kids high-5's and listening to their cheers! What a grand experience for all involved...especially those little ones!! Real HEROS!! Afterwards, they went up and down main street where the community came out and waved and cheered!

The Seniors carried the trophy with them on this truck.

Yeah, you're #1!!!!

Here are juniors and sophomores bringing up the rear.

Yeah, you guys are #1 also!!

On the way back students at CHS got to go out and meet the trucks in front of the school. Eagle Power, We Are #1!!

Thanks, Marcie, for the pictures....the one day I don't have a camera at school....I can't believe it!!

More STATE Pictures

After checking out some newspapers, I compiled these pictures taken from photographers from The Tri-City Herald, The Tacoma Tribune and Seattle Times: in no particular order (:
