Dave and Bev's Blog

It's been a long time since I have posted anything here. I guess I am not a very faithful writer. Bev, MacKenzie, and I are getting ready to drive up to Seattle. Bev and I will take turns riding bikes with Steve (Bev's brother) as he does the Seattle to Portland ride. There are 9000 people signed up for the event. The ride is 100 miles per day. It looks like it will be beautiful weather. Click on the link to the right, "Our picture database" to find nature pictures of our trip to Florida.

Hunter William Tourville

Heather and Brandon are the proud parents of a new baby boy. He is a strong 8 lbs. 14 oz. and about 19 inches long. Mom and baby are doing well. Hunter had a surprise for everyone. He was in full breach position. Furthermore, mom and dad were planning on a girl for most of the pregnancy, but Hunter had other plans. A last minute ultrasound before delivery indicated he was all boy. More pictures are available by clicking on the link to the right to Dave's and Bev's picture site.

Christmas Day

Zach loves swimming. He has been practicing almost every day. He kicks all the way down the pool with his board. He keeps Papa Hall very busy.


We all met at Heather and Brandon's house for Christmas dinner. There was lots of good food and good company.

Dad instructs Steve on the finer points of Dancing. Dad is getting pretty good.

Grandma enjoys Christmas

Grandma Miller came for Christmas also. Pam drove over to Walla Walla and brought Grandma for a few days. It was sure good to see her. She saw MacKenzie for the first time. Zach is a lot taller than the last time she saw him. Heather and Brandon had many new gifts for their baby girl they are expecting in February. Sheryl, Pam, Steve, and Cody drove up from Northern California. We had a great time with a big family Christmas.

MacKenzie's First Christmas

MacKenzie models some new clothes. Heather and Brandon gave her the hat. We all had a great time opening presents, especially Zach.

This is Kenzie's first Christmas. She had big eyes looking at all the brightly wrapped gifts.
