Speaking of "Moves"!

I always figured Marshall could drive anything! That's why he has a international drivers licence! Fun memory. Love ya woof.

Wii/Logan/Naruto/Shawn White snowboarding!

Logan thinks he has "skills". I agree...Napolean Dynamite type skills. We all need a little Logan in our lives! This is your daily fix ;)

Random "Fun" pictures!!!!






Pictures from Grandpa and Grandma Longs 50 wedding celebration. Fun Fun!!!
















I think the Professional pictures will be a little more "Professional" but these are still fun.

















Abigail likes me!!!!
















Logan and Max in the snow.












Logan with a more than average "unusual hair day" Abigail doesn't seem to mind.





Pictures ...Finally! Cam's Graduation!!!

Cameron graduated with a Bachelors Degree, in Physics from BYU Idaho. What a wonderful event, Rexburg was cold and snowy but the spirit of the event was strong. Pres Clark and Pres Uchtdorf both spoke. Awesome. Cam and Kim will be moving to Nebraska in January to begin a doctorate program at University of Nebraska in Lincoln.











Kelly was the proud Papa. I was a little pleased as well!





We were grateful for this chance to share in this pivotal event in the Cameron's life. We love you son!
Mom and Dad

Christmas party!

Tonight was the annual hospital Christmas party. Logan was my "date", Dad was the MC. Logan was very handsome in his suit and tie and spiky hair. The food was great. We had a family called Top String who performed, they were great.
The weather continues to be a problem. freezing snow tonight and about 8 degrees coming home. Its the kind of weather where you want to stay home and read a book by the fire, not Christmas shopping and parties. oh well.
We are all home safe and warm now, Max is tearing apart his toy cat, Logan is playing Wii music and Dad is working on his annual Christmas puzzle. Life is good!

Baby its "COLD" outside

It was -14 degrees driving to work this morning (driving very slowly I might add). Snow, ice, slick and oh baby "its cold outside". I came home from work where Logan wanted to go outside in the ice and snow (for about 3 minutes when he decided it was to cold), He didn't close the outside door to the garage and now "I have frozen water pipes". I am having a delightful day. And I'm thirsty!

But my furnace works and I have electricity. I will survive! .......... Again!

I will survive...I did survive!!!

This has been a busy few weeks, Sometimes I felt like the fox, sometimes the hound. But I did survive We all did!!!! Thanks to Thelma for e-mailing me this picture!

Thanksgiving week was great! We saw and spent time with all of our children and their spouses and "Abigail" (She is even more amazing in person than on the blog)! We stayed at the Bly Manor 5 Star with fabulous hosts!!! We had an early Christmas party, presents, money tree, games, movies, shopping and lots of food. We are very lucky and blessed to have such neat kids.
We had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner with all the Long Clan. My parents, siblings and many of their children and grandchildren were there (I believe we had close to 50 attending). We haven't seen some of the family for several years so it was nice to have a brief get together . The food was great and we had a nice family roadshow that was silly and fun.
The following day we attended a 50th anniversary celebration for my parents! The decorations and food were fantastic (I have some very talented, hardworking siblings) Again it was nice to see many faces that we had not seen for years, Mom and Dad have many dear friends and family who came to share in their special party. It was beautiful!
Eventually we had to come home to the real word. Thing at work are a bit stressful right now, A lot of change and that can sometimes mean tension and worry. But we will survive!!!!!
We have been putting up Christmas decorations and are almost done (just the tree left)! We are enjoying Christmas music . I actually went caroling last night (on the back on a trailer with hay bails etc). That was fun.
We have a lot going on this next week but then maybe we can settle in and relax a little. Till then Fox or Hound? I guess it depends on the day!!!
