http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net Sun, 04 Jan 2009 07:00:30 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en So I thought I would go ahead and post my footage of the recent winter snow event that left us with a ton of snow. I know my brothers wanted to see it. What's amazing is that even the video doesn't really show the depth that we had. ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2009/01/03/winter-storm-footage/ ARCTIC BLAST - Well...that is what the news stations have named this set of storms.  I think it's so funny how they have to name each event. Today is the first day of winter and I can seriously say that winter has officially hit us hard. We have been getting ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/12/21/arctic-blast/ So we finally had our first good snow today. Five inches according to my ruler. It was beautiful. Jakob and I have been itching to build a snowman and have been waiting to get enough snow to build one. Up until this point we were robbed ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/12/18/let-it-snow/ Today Jakob & Madison got to meet Santa.  It was a first for both.  I have to say that the moment Santa walked into the room was priceless.  Jakob's jaw literally dropped.  I thought he went into a momentary coma.  I sure wish I had that face on video to ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/12/10/jakob-maddy-meet-santa/ So I got up this morning and decided to watch a little TV when this little number came on.  I almost couldn't believe it was an actual commercial.  I thought it was seriously hilarious so I thought I would share it. http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/12/05/santa-bob/ So Sunday we went out and cut our 2008 Christmas tree.  Jakob pretty much decorated the tree himself.  He got the step ladder and worked away.  He is still re-decorating the tree each day.  He keeps moving the ornaments.  He's broken a few already (much less than previous years though).  ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/12/04/christmas-tree-2008/ "Federal regulators set a safety threshold Friday for the industrial chemical melamine that is greater than the amount of contamination found so far in U.S.-made infant formula." http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27959802/from/ET/ Our FDA could literally give a rats ass about food and drug safety in America. They have to be bought. I sure ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/11/29/fda-sets-safe-level-for-infant-formula-chemical/ 2 posts in one day...I'm on a roll.  I just had to add a little blip about our wonderful Thanksgiving Day.  We had Thanksgiving this year at my Mom's house.  Josh's parents & sister were there as well as Maya Ping.  It was great.  We broke up the cooking and ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/11/29/happy-thanksgiving/ This week we went and had family photos taken at Portrait Innovations.  Josh's cousin Jody recommended it and I don't have much to say besides THEY ROCK!!!!  I have never had a good experience getting photos done since being a mother.  All the parents out there should know what I'm ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/11/29/family-photos/ This weekend we decided to take a trip down to the local park since the weather was fairly nice and it wasn't raining.  It was Maddy's first trip to the park.  I remember when Jakob was Madison's age and his first time swinging and going down the same slide.  We ... http://ourfamilyblog.wagooh.net/2008/11/16/voo-zsha-day/
