2010-05-01T15:11:00.000-07:00

I'm sorry. I have tried soooooo many times to put pictures on here and on facebook, but it will not let me anymore. I don't know why. Everytime that I try to put a picture on either it just processes for a very long time until I get frustrated and back out. -It doesn't matter what picture size it is, it does the same with all!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

2009-06-12T12:29:00.000-07:00

Elli got to spend some time with her cousin last weekend so I thought I would show some fun pics of how they've grown. They are not even a week apart in age.

Here they are in August. Ooh, but you can only see their mommies.

November '08'- they were 2 1/2 months old.

June- They are 9 months old.

Then we went to the Chinese Gardens, then the Rose Gardens.

It was fun and quite beautiful.

Cape Disappointment

Birthday girl Cheila

2009-05-15T11:42:00.000-07:00

Cheila is officially 11 years old today.
I think she is actually turning 15 tomorrow. (Or maybe she thinks that.)
Anyway, I can't believe that I have a daughter that old. I guess that makes me old. That means that I turn 31 soon!!!!

What is wrong with this!!!

2009-02-22T16:04:00.000-08:00

I'll tell you what is wrong with this picture

Elli is eating an oreo and wearing a St.Paul Girl neclace

Need I say more

Rainy Sunday

2009-02-22T15:44:00.000-08:00

Well, Portland is doing what Portland does best.

Rain.

So... I have one bored girl on my hands. I told her to be creative. This is her being actively creative. Playing in the rain with goggles, wearing my thermal long underwear, and playing ball. She did have some dress-up heels on but I made her change shoes. (Hey, a girl loves to wear heels.)

Valentines Day flowers

2009-02-15T22:40:00.000-08:00

Update- Christmas

2009-01-23T21:48:00.000-08:00

I took these on Christmas Eve.
My girls are so cute.

Christmas Day

Christmas Chaos

Tam planned a few activities for our Christmas event.
First she asked all the friends, boyfriends and girlsfriends to come up to the front and she asked them some funny questions. It was great.

Nicole and Amy laughing at the responses.

Second, she had Grandpa, Eric, Hollie and Luke read a skit of Jesus' birth.

It was so funny because Luke started off reading his part, Joseph, with some kind of accent. He wasn't really sure what kind of accent one would have as Joseph and ended up with a Hispanic accent. It was really funny listening to him act out the part of Joseph as if he were Hispanic.

I have no pictures because I was videoing it.

Update- Jer & Liv

2009-01-23T21:30:00.000-08:00

Jeremy and Olivia came to visit a few days before Christmas.
It was fun to see them and for them to meet Elli. It's hard not being able to spend more time with them.

Happy Birthday Jer

Snow

2009-01-01T13:49:00.001-08:00

Hey look! It snowed.

And snowed...

And snowed...

And snowed!
We got a good 2 feet of snow.

So Olivia & I decided to go quading in it. That was alot of fun, except it was so deep that we couldn't even go off roading!

-Jeremy & Olivia had just arrived from Anchorage to visit us for a few days. They left the snow, well, just in time for snow. They said that we actually had more snow than they did!!

Arden shoveling his walkway before Christmas in hopes that people will actually come!
Thanks for letting us borrow your quad Grandpa. :)

Cutie Elliana

It's so fun to watch her learn and grow. Boy, she's growing fast.

Tree hunting

2008-12-16T22:18:00.000-08:00

Baby Elli

2008-11-18T12:26:00.000-08:00

I know that we haven't blogged in a long time. And I'm possitive ours is not the most captivating blog, but........ here are some pictures to show the progression of our family and our newest addition Elliana Janae Wolf.

Softball

2008-07-03T18:00:00.000-07:00

There she is. The softball player. Cheila's had a fun time playing. This is her first season and she says that she wants to continue next year. We had some really cold days of sitting and watching while the girls froze their little shorts off. Brrr. Now we're in a heat wave. Wow!

Belly contest

2008-07-03T17:45:00.000-07:00

Who has the bigger belly?

Baby Girl

2008-06-03T18:03:00.000-07:00

We are having a girl, as I'm sure most have heard by now. I won't post the girl shot, but baby is definitely a girl! These pics were taken on May 12 at 5 3/4 months pregnant. Today I am 26 weeks, that's 6 1/2 months! Wow, getting closer.

She is kicking a moving alot. Sometimes I feel like she's turning over and around and doing flips! She's pretty active already!

Janae's Prego Belly

2008-05-11T17:39:00.000-07:00

Ok, so here I am, prego belly and all. Yay!!!!! These pics are on a hike that Matt and I took the other day in Welches. It was fun, but so different when your pregnant. (I walk just a little and run out of breath!)
It is an interesting thing, having another human being inside of you. Such an amazing feeling to be able to feel the baby move inside.

BABY

2008-03-19T16:09:00.000-07:00

I know we don't post often, but we don't actually have the internet at home. Sorry everyone!

Well, it's baby time!!! We are excited to announce that we are pregnant, due between the 9th and 14th of September. So, needless to say, we are busy making lots of plans and preparations.

Ok, the baby's face is on the left & his or her body on the right. You can see the eyes!! How fun. We will be getting another ultrasound in about a month or so. At that point we'll be able to tell the sex, and yes, we want to know so we'll be finding out and letting you all know.

Ruby's Spa

2007-10-24T10:30:00.000-07:00

I just started at Edgefield McMenamins in Troutdale and so far I am loving it. It's very pretty! The salon room is on the third floor, facials and message on the second and the pedicure and manicure room is on the first. This room is cool because it has a wood burning fireplace. I think that this going to be alot of fun and provide some financial perks! If you want to look at some pics of it connect to McMenamins.com, go to Hotels and click on Edgefield, then click on the 'Ruby's Spa' icon.

I'll be Coming Around the Mountain

2007-10-17T15:40:00.000-07:00

So, myself and two friends (Zach Vesleck and David Paul) embarked on a mission around Mt. Hood before the summer came to an end. Unfortunately, as we met and talked with hikers on the Pacific Crest Trail portions of the hike, they informed us some of the trails about 30 miles in were washed out and unpassable. So, we diverted our hike at Ramona Falls and went up an undisclosed trail for about 6 miles and saw one of the most amazing views in my life.

Oregon is amazingly beautiful, you just have to go out and find it. Gresham I could live without in my life, but when you get outside the area with all the strip malls, Fred Meyer parking lots and the pollution from the real estate agents driving their Hummers, then you see why people live in Oregon. The Mt. Hood National Forest is amazing!!! It definitely caught my heart the moment we began hiking.

We ended up hiking about 32 miles all together over a 3-day period and here is the view I saw. If you look closely, Zach and I are in the bottom right hand corner. That's how close we were to Mt. Hood.

Let the blogs begin!!!

2007-07-12T18:44:00.000-07:00

I've decided to start a blog site of our family because we have many family members and loved ones that live far away.
I hope that you all enjoy being able to see a little of our world. :)
