Helping out @ Drumlin House

Guess this bird.

Guess what this bird is? And it's not a female cardinal.

Our own way down to Texas

Marianne warming up after spending a minus 4 degree night in the trailer. We spent a few hours in the Museum of Appalachia in Tennessee and we couldn't resist warming up at this great fireplace. The weather in Texas has been great with days of 30 degree temperatures with warm breezes.

Carly In Vancouver - horse show and skiing

I entered my very first horse show. There were 5 of us on the two horses and you can tell from the average age it wasn't a very big show. However, I didn't fall off and I even got a flying lead change so it was a good day.


Here's another picture from a morning trip skiing up one of the local mountains. It turned out to be a beautiful day. First we put skins on our skis and went up and then we teleskied down.

Jamie-Lynn and I just recently returned home from a trip to Cuba...where we met this seemingly unhappy little crab on the beach.

Our house

Taken last winter after the big snow!!!

Happy New Year - 2008

Rastis breaking trail in the snow

some winter cheer in the house

a gathering of cousins - Christmas 2007

Our visitor was certainly anticipating getting at that bird feeder - the snow is too deep in the bush for them to get food so we have had a lot of visitors but it has been great for snow angels

Christmas 2007

News from Desert Lake

Thought I would post this for those who haven't seen the house yet.

New Year's Day

On New Year's Day a bunch of the Huitema's were visiting at Johnny and Donna's house and Jakob (son of Mike and Sonja) was there as well.

Snowstorm and new camera

So Bert got a new camera for Christmas and we woke up to a winter wonderland.

Spicey Thai Pizza and Names

This pizza went over well when served on the Sunday movie night.

• roll out dough or buy premade crusts.
• Sauce = spicy thai peanut sauce (or maybe peanut satay sauce, it all has different names for different brands).
• Cover with mozzarella cheese.
• toppings: fresh cilantro, grated carrot, caramelized onion and precooked chicken breast pieces.
• Bake in the oven at 400F till cheese is melted.

Finally, here is an interesting webpage on names. You can type a name in to view it in more detail.

Lindsay and Dominic

Look at the blond hair on this little guy!

Dominic Charles Marshall

Here are some pictures of the new baby boy born December 27, 2007 at 9lbs 4 ozs and 21" long.

Christmas @ 2368 Slo-Pitch Road, 2007

Boxing Day at the farm

Carly and I walked to the back of our farm and saw this hawk flying around. He just kept circling and shrieking at us.
Bert received a new camera for Christmas and we took this picture of Age's horses across our creek with the new long lens.

Jamie-Lynn and i were recently down in Florida enjoying a break from the snow. Pictured here, i was picking out a new purse for Jamie-Lynn for Christmas. Did i mention how nice it was to see the sun again?
