Lets go flying

Nate and his buddies have been wanting to go for an airplane ride with Sean. Last weekend Sean was able to take them for a short flight over our houses and school . Below is the nieghborhood. You can see the little hill at the park by the tracks.

This is a bit more of the school shot and the Ellis neighborhood.

Here is my favorite shot of those handsome Gordon Guys!




Logan: "Wow! Thanks Brother Gordon! That was so Awesome!"

Sean: "So Nate, did you like that?" Nate: (Trying not to smile too big, nodding his head) "Ya"

Christmas is tight this year

To each of our dear friends and family,

This is somewhat embarrassing to admit. Sean is not getting his annual bonus, so Christmas is tight this year. We are choosing to make the most of our situation, and will be giving homemade Christmas gifts.

I will be making bedroom slippers for you all as gifts. Please let me know your sizes. I think you would agree that this is a great idea. If you would like to do the same, I've included the slipper instructions below.



Bedroom slippers out of maxi pads:

You need four maxi pads to make a pair. Two of them get laid out flat, for the foot part. The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top. Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of the foot part. Decorate the tops with whatever you desire, silk flowers (this is most aesthetically appealing), etc.

These slippers are: * Soft and Hygienic * Non-slip grip strips on the soles * Built in deodorant feature keeps feet smelling fresh * No more bending over to mop up spills * Disposable and biodegradable * Environmentally safe *

Three convenient sizes: (1.) Regular, (2.) Light and (3.) Get out the Sand Bags. I've attached a photo of the first pair I made so that you can see the nifty slippers for yourself.... Awaiting your res ponse. It's crucial that I get the right size for each one of you.

A good laugh is the real gift---Merry Christmas!!!!!
