Pictures from Jeannies wedding on May 23, 2009

David's portfolio pics.

Here are a few of D's best pics from his portfolio. We just picked them up yesterday in Seattle at his agency.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I know it has been a while since I last updated my blog, but life has been busy.  Things are going GREAT at my office.  I now have 3 employees (massage therapists) and a massage therapist that rents a room part time.  I had my best week last week and hope to see it continue to get better. 

As I promised, I have pictures of the furniture that I refinished for Alison's bed room.  The Armoire is still missing it's doo

rs due to the cold weather, but you will get the idea.  They have been done for a while now, but I haven't been able to post, so here they are.

We had fun on Hallowe

en with our friends Abbie and Maddie, and David and Alison's

 friends, Colby and Cassie.  They were all great trick or treaters and we still have the candy to show for it.  I think we will still have it come Easter, they did so well.  

We have gone to Birthday parties galore and David and I even took a trip to Seattle the middle of October so that he could take his first set of professional modeling pics for his comp cards and portfolio.  We should be picking them up soon, which hopefully means he will be booking photo shoots shortly.  

Keep your fingers crossed.  

Duncan and I also took a trip to Vegas on PCG.  The branch did so well last year they gave all the PCI/PAS Vancouver employees and their spouses a trip to Fabulous Las Vegas.  We had lots of fun.  Everything was paid for and we never dipped into our own pockets.  Thanks PCG.  We look forward to another one next year!

GO COUGS!

We had family pictures taken on 9/7/08 and these are the results. David turned 4 on August 28, Duncan turned 33 on September 1, and Alison will be 2 on September 19. The multitude of birthdays gave us a chance to take a family photo that was well over due.

We have all been enjoying the last few days of summer while the weather is still warm enough to play outside. David got a new bike with training wheels for his birthday, so we have been going on bike rides whenever the chance arises.

Alison will be getting a new set of bedroom furniture and a big girl bed for her birthday. I am currently in the process of refinishing a few dressers given to me by my sister that so far look great with a new coat of paint. One dresser/ hutch down and one armoire to go. I will post before and after photos as soon as they are finished.

David's Fourth Birthday Party

Last weekend at the Portland Highland Festival

David got the chance to play in the kids games and got a gold medal! What he didn't realize...all the other kids got gold medals too. What he doesn't know won't kill him. :-)

I've never seen so many manly men in "kilts" together at one time.

Alison and I just hanging out while David played his games.

My new office during the transformation

I didn't take any before pictures, but the transformation has been pretty amazing. Here are a few pictures of the work in progress....

There will be more pictures next week of the finished product, so keep your eyes open
