Winter in the Central Oregon Cascades

Winter is in Full Force here. The boys are now 2 1/2 and almost 5. Cole will be celebrating his birthday in early March.
They both enjoy playing in the snow. This picture was taken on one of our sledding outings. The only one missing in the picture is Chillie, who enjoys running after the boys on their sleds and even knocking them down now and then.
Cole has been learning how to ski and is ready for a longer beginner run now that he has gone down the little hill 4 times on his own. Spencer would love to ski although right now we are using it as a bargaining tool for a potty training reward. We're keeping our fingers crossed.
Jason is still working as a Supervisor for Ski School at Mt. Bachelor and loving all of the challenges that give him ample opportunity to continue to grow and engage his creative side of himself. His health is doing great and anyone who didn't know his past with having a surgery wouldn't even know by looking at him or watching the activities he continues to enjoy. I can't believe in a that it has been a little over a 1 1/2 years now. I continue to thank God everyday for how He has blessed our lives and given our family the gift of time and health to continue to grow, laugh, and thoroughly enjoy the life He has given us to share with one another and our friends.
Blessings to everyone in the New Year of 2008.
