Brotherhood Bridge Trail

Last weekend we took an hour walk around the Brotherhood Bridge trail area. It was nice getting out and exercising, it was cold but at least it wasn't raining!



Lauren all bundled up and ready to go (she fell asleep a few minutes later)

Work Photos

Thought these two photos were pretty cool. The fighter jet pulled up to the National Guard hangar next to my hangar. Notice the Alaska Airline jet taking off in the background. Pretty cool to capture two jets in one photo!


The pretty fall colors of the trees with the snow capped mountain in the background was a interesting contrast. Unfortunately, the picture turned out darker than anticipated, but still nice, right?

One Wet Halloween

We had a nice Halloween weekend. Cassie took Lauren in her monkey suit to a Halloween party on Thursday. Friday night we went trick-or-treating with Nate and Sarah and their kids. It was rainy and cold (imagine that!) but we managed to hit several houses and pull in a decent stash of candy.


Lauren the monkey and Mom. Mom looks like a zombie!! Haha


Aaron, Lauren and Allison ready to go get that candy!


Lauren with Daddy

All of the snow has melted from last weekend as the cool weather continues to bring the rain. We got the game this weekend, though it wasn't a pretty site! Ashley and B.J. renewed their gym memberships this weekend which has been a year in the making. With our renewed commitment to fitness we've also decided to eat healthier. Today we went grocery shopping for ingredients for a couple of new dishes were trying: a Thai shrimp noodle bowl, salmon Caesar salad, and broccoli cheese cannelloni.


Lauren refusing to take her nap today... We tried to capture her adorable "pouty face" but missed it. Eventually we all took a two hour nap this afternoon and she decided to join us.
