March/April (catching up 2 months at a time!)

Here I am back in March.

This is Chandler & Benson playing on our banana chair on a Sunday evening.

Cape Lookout State Park in Oregon.

For spring break I went to the coast with a couple friends - we stayed in a yurt!

The yurt was just a walk away from the beach. I actually stayed there with Daniel (Benson's dad) & Brandon (Chandler's dad). We played a few games of Settler of Catan!

The middle car is my pinewood derby car (yes, that is a can of potted meat strapped to the top).

Here is Teresa back in April (of course, now her hair is EVEN SHORTER!).

February Was Fun

I usually don't include many words, but here are a few "details" (just for you Kate) about what we are up to.
Teresa started a new job downtown at the Louisiana-Pacific Corporation as the Document Specialist in the claims department. I visited her yesterday and she works on the 10th floor of a big, gorgeous building right in the center of downtown. Nice view too. She's loving it - though it is hard to go to work while I have my 2 week spring break right now.
And me...well, I'm enjoying "my 2 week spring break right now." I managed to get passing grades for 2 quarters of chiropractic school, so I just gotta keep that up for the next 10.
Enjoy the pictures!

Paul & Ann (T's parents), Teresa & Jeff - at dance on Valentine's Day (our 6 year anniversary!).

HIKE UP AND AROUND MULTNOMAH FALLS (PAUL AND ME):

Another view of Multnomah Falls (taken from the bridge half way up).

At the top of the falls. The rest of the pictures are of various spots along the river above the falls.

Paul monkeying around.

The transition into 2009

Ben Favero on Christmas with his favoritest present...yard-o-beef.

KT, Joe, and Becca relaxing on the fence at the schoolhouse (at the 7F Ranch in Roberston, Wyoming on 12/29/08).

New Year's Eve trauma - right after midnight Ben and Becca saw us kissing and nearly reinacted it....yeah, it was weird. This video is the post trauma reaction.

Rachel and Jon caught in a laughing fit at the Favero home on New Year's Day.

Justin and KT. Nice shirt Justin...and smile.

Emily (Jeff's sister) and her 3 munchkins. Abigail showed up David and little William on this one - they must not have realized they were supposed to give a cheesy smile.

December came and went

Snow in Portland - this was the worst it got, and still many were going 15 MPH and had chains on their tires!

Scenes from the nativity story - reinacted by the extended Flamm family (on Jeff's Mom's side).
(12/20/08)

Granny and Grandpa Flamm looking great. Good picture.

Oh, there are the lovebirds at the Flamm Christmas Party.

And then the odd folks (Jeff's siblings) in this section of the party...Becca, Kaytie, Justin,

and Joe

at their best.

Ben and Teresa striking a pose at the party.

Us on Christmas Eve at the Spilker home (Teresa's parents).

Ben and Katie Spilker holding their niece, Brooke.

Jared Spilker with his crew (Brooke, Megan,

and Joshie).

Aren't these two adorable?

Sunday afternoon gathering for family pictures at the Spilker home (12/28/08).

Eliza Spilker (dancing for her baby cousins, Brooke and Megan) on Sunday.
