At the Valley Art Show in Duvall this year Caleb took first place for his oil painting. Emma had a first place entry a couple of years ago. Here is Caleb's on the wall at a local restaurant.

Award Winning Art!
As the older three kids were taking an art class in Duvall at the Northwest Art Center, they entered into the Duvall Days Art Show. Emma actually won first place in her age division and netted an award check for $65 (and mention in the local paper)! Her dog painting, "Puppy Angel" was displayed at the local dog wash business - not surprisingly. More surprising was that her color choices fit in quite nicely. Not to be outdone, both of the boys did well. Here is Colin's runner up Dragon. Here is Emma and her art on display:

Thanksgiving 2007
We had a great Thanksgiving with two turkeys, tons of food, and a houseful of people. This included Grandma Dot, Grandma Bev, Uncle Jack and Aunt Shirl, George and Anne Kordwig (neighbors down the street), Uschi and Louis and their two children, Beatrice and Pedro, Franklin and Joy Lobb, and their two children, Gabriella and Graceson (the youngest attending at only 6 months), also the Ostlings and Wade. Coming to a total of 30! Things went very smoothly for that many people!
The mix of folks was unique...George was born in Germany and Uschi and Louis are from Brazil, but most recently from Germany . The other interesting find was that Anne and Uncle Jack were born in relatively close proximity in Scotland, but ten years apart!
We are thankful for our friends and family and really enjoyed hosting this year.
Just to remind Jack...that at the end of the evening we did play the board game Therapy with Uschi, Louis, Kyna, and Shannon.
And just to remind Gail...Jack would have won if she hadn't given Uschi the peg reward for successful group therapy instead of him! Maybe next time he will not suggest that she is what she eats.
Here is a turkey that Emma (8) drew this year, using her hand of course for a template:
