Tree cutting time!

We are finally getting around to cutting some trees down. And what a Beautiful Day...pertnear warm i'd say!! It was about time we cut down a few of those DREADED GUM TREES!! They seem to get worse every year dropping them stupid gumballs.

And here is Jake in the tree trying to tie the rope up just as a safety precaution knowing that my dad (the master treecutter) is at an electrical seminar and cannot be there to guide the tree to fall in its exact perceivable and perferred falling location. My cousin Derrick is learning very quickly on being an ace at cutting trees down without hitting anything that is of value so, in the meantime, we have to use this caution method.

And here is the pic of a days work! That site looks so glorious... oh wait, no it does'nt... now we have to clean all that up!! :(

This is the silhouwette pic, however you spell that, of......


who do you think!!


And here is garfield after he fell in some black paint and then stepped in white primer and he still just lies around being lazy while us guys were working hard...although if you get him stirred up like Ode does sometimes he'll prettymuch take a hand off!

Snowboarding is...is...just great!!

Had an awesome day on the slopes yesterday with my friends David, Lyndon, Wendell, Brent, and Austin even though it was a little warm and slushy...Oh, there also seemed to be a few ice patches here and there that you had to dodge. Sometimes you could'nt really see them until you were prettymuch wiped out... anyway enough of that. Here are some pictures of some great skiing and snowboarding! Sorry skiers... couldn't resist, but snowboarding is prettymuch awesome.

Brent and Austin getting big air jumping over David...Yeah!!!
