Axis & Allies
Alan got the new version of Axis & Allies for Christmas. He let Dixie participate in its maiden voyage, and guess who almost won after a mere 3 hours?
a date with daddy
Josh took Jake on a...gasp...date. Some might call it a father & son outing, but it was a "date" to Jake. They went out for pizza & then went bowling. When I asked Jake that night about his favorite memory for that day, he said "my date with dad"...awww

Brush Your Teeth
Over the past few days, I have had the opportunity to gather more medical supplies to send to Tonga. This got me thinking about my trip last year. We were able to teach more than 500 Tongan students about brushing their teeth. It was an amazing experience! However, I think that Jake & Lander (with Heather's help) would have done a much better job. Take a peek at what they have to say about it...
Little Achiever
I went to Jake's school today and noticed that his picture was on the wall for academic excellence. When I asked him why it was there, he said "I don't know. They just took my picture." So, in honor of his unknown award, here is a tribute to Jake:

Disc Golf Idaho
Josh & Jarrod threw in a round of disc golf or two over Thanksgiving. Here is Jarrod's latest go for an Ace (that's a hole in one for those less familiar with disc golf). Listen closely....How many aces would that have been Jarrod?
