White Christmas take 2

This video was taken last night. The snow is sooo beautiful but has certainly put a damper on our Christmas plans. We were suppose to fly to California this morning to spend Christmas with the Whittingtons, but our flight was cancelled. I have been trying to call all night and morning to get another flight but can't get through. I e-mailed and they e-mailed me back and told me they would contact me in the next 5 days. WOW! Super 5 days what in the world. We have about 10-12 inches of snow. Last night I put the ruler in and we had a little over 7 and it snowed for many hours after that. So more snow in the forcast for tonight we will see what happens!

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas!

The snow has continued to come and apparently has no ideas of stopping. The temperatures are supppose to reach all of 29 degrees for the high tomorrow and apparently there is another system moving in. We have about 3 inches, which may not seem like much for some, but for us is alot, especially this time of year. With no rain or warm weather in the near future we are planning on enjoying God's Christmas gift to us here in Washington. I love the snow, everything is quiet and still when it snows, it is like God saying stop and take a look at my creation and greatness. I just love it!

A dear friend of Nate's family, Patty Robbinson, made this hat for Brooklyn. I adore it! She has been wearing it out in the cold weather.

Brooklyn is despertly wanting to be mobile. I am not sure I am ready for it, but I don't think she cares.

"Ok every one say Chesse" yeah right! Brooklyn and all her buddies. They are all girls, except Kase whom we love dearly, and all born three weeks apart. Brooklyn (#1), Sophia (#4), Kase(actually #1), Camden(Cami) (#3), Hailey (#2), and Isabella (Bella) (#5).

Lakers

Brooklyn's favorite toy has been her Laker basketball. Nate is thrilled and already thinks Brooklyn has picked her favorite team. How great it would be for him to have some support up here in Washington for the Lakers.

Newest Addition to the Downie Family

Little Lauren Cameron Downie has arrived!!! She is absolutly adorable. Rachelle and JB have taken the proper measures to ensure she will be their last, so praise the Lord for little girls. Congrats JB, Rachelle, Devon, Cameron, and little Lauren, we love you!

Steam Roller

I know I have posted a lot of Haden's football pictures but I just love this picture, so I promise here is the last one. Haden sings this steam roller song that the team sings back to him before every game. I wish I had it on video so cool, but this picture will have to do.

Mommy's little helper

We started putting up our Christmas decorations on Sunday. Brooklyn loves the lights and shinny bulbs. We had lots of fun!

College days are over

We love #52! Cousin Logan, Lacey, Haden, Jorden, and girlfriend Charolette. Haden was selected to the all conference team. I believe he was two tackels short of leading the conference even dispite not playing in two games due to a torn hamstring. What a season... a broken jaw and a torn hamstring.

An end to yet another great season of football and an end of an era for the Gienger kids and sports. Well possibly, Haden has been contacted by the European league to go play, we will see. Next year we may be flying over seas to watch him, fine by me!
