Black Butte 2009

We spent one full week up at Black Butte after Christmas and it was winter wonderland. The boys played football in the snow and the girls read books and sled down the big hills. Of course the Deans were with us and we were especially happy to have Jeff home. He has been commuting to Denver the past few months so we were all happy Ruby found her Dad. Mike and Jeff took the kids to a movie one afternoon and Gretchen and I had 3 whole hours alone at the house. It was GREAT! Then they all got home and our CHI was all messed up. On the day we were leaving Jeff could not find his Ducks football. The boys had left in the the snow and it was buried under the fresh nights snow. Lost forever! With the Rose bowl the next day, Jeff was not about to leave behind one of his Duck footballs so he and Mikey searched until finally a pass with the rake turned up a very buried ball. It was a great week and when we were home Gretchen and I both looked at each other and said," Why did we come home!"
