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.

Sabbath

We had a fun weekend. Ama and Papa Walters stayed with us. They really helped out around the house. Bev and Dick finished the chair railing in Zach's room. We also had the pleasure of Brian and Darla visiting. It was great to see them. It's been awhile. They are doing great. We are excited to be closer to them when we move to Portland. Darla even took this great picture of Brian holding MacKenzie. He looks like a natural to me.

Ama enjoys going with Zach to his Sabbath school. Zach loves all of Ama's attention. Papa Walters loves to hold MacKenzie. He gets her right to sleep every time. He's pretty proud of her.

Thanksgiving family pictures

Bev and MacKenzie

Thanksgiving Sabbath, we went into the Walter's back yard for some family photos. MacKenzie and Zach wore their matching Sabbath cloths. We had a great and relaxing Thanksgiving.

Zach has been having fun visiting Ama and Papa Walters over the past few months. All of us visited for Thanksgiving. Zach wanted a picture with fluffy the kitty. Zach has his Sabbath clothes on. He loves to play outside and help in the orchard.

Hi everyone. This is our first entry in our new blog. Bev, Zach, MacKenzie and I are moving to Portland. I took a new job there and will be working as the medical director for the occupational medicine clinic at Portland Adventist Medical Center. I'm excited about the new work. We will move to Portland at Christmas time. Bev has found a house for us to rent. We plan to buy a house eventually. We want some more time to look around and find a house. We will let you know our new address when we get it. Merry Christmas.
