Christmas Tree

We cut our tree from the local farm, survived an inadvertent trip on the highway, and trimmed it out.  Our son does not like to wear clothes.

 You need someone to check out the low branches!

 Some failed family photos.

 Gingerbread house.

 Bathtime lions.

After bath is a natural time for living room football.  In one's underwear, of course.

Bath Time

I'm not sure how long we're going to be able to keep up the batched bathing, but I think we'll miss it when it's gone.

Drilling!

A big truck came by and started drilling our geothermal wells.Here's our project manager, Dan, explaining that they will drill down 375 feet, or until they hit ledge, whichever happens first.
They hit ledge after 8 feet. After much adjusting, they kept drilling.Obligatory toddler with shoes photo. Why do they love shoes so much?Bath time!

Little House on the Prarie

Here's Leigh looking like Laura Ingalls Wilder, or one of those children from Big Love.
With a big head.
But these children get to stare vacantly at the TV.Like the Ingalls, we save hot water by bathing three-wide.
Don't worry Mom, just heading out with my friends!
Danny checking out the new garage.The termites were busy before we bought the house. This, we're told, is cosmetic.This is structurally unsound, but getting torn out, anyway.Strong like toilet paper!Our dining room is framed out. Before and afters.
