Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!


Porter Cousins all lined up in a row.
William, Kyle, Bradley, Blake, and Amy

They said it couldn't be done, but after 7 1/2 years, Joe is a Husker fan!


William cared less about his presents and more about the candy that was in the stockings and later dumped on the floor.

The only thing Bradley wanted was a Squawker the parrot.

Sad when this is the best you can do.

2007 Nativity

We hope that everyone had a Merry Christmas. We had a wonderful Christmas. Christmas Eve we went to Janette's parents' house here in Omaha and had dinner as well as enjoyed a wonderful live nativity presentation put on by Bradley, Kyle, William, Uncle Bill, Aunt Lisa, and cousins Michael and Sammy. Joe's parents were able to come out from Clarkston, Washington to spend the holidays with us. Joe brother Tim and wife Amanda with their son came up from Lincoln, NE Christmas to have dinner and spend the night. Joe's sister Teri and her husband and daughter were able to join us for dinner as well on Christmas. It was great to have the Porter's join us for Christmas and the holidays. New Years Eve everyone was at our house and we had a fondue party as well as played games and visited until midnight. We said Happy New Year, and Happy Birthday to Joe's Mom, born on New Years Day, and headed off to bed. We were able to get a picture of the cousins together before Tim and Amanda had to head back to Lincoln. We have really enjoyed having them here!

Adorable Christmas photos. I love the boys in the Sunday clothes. Just one thing though...Husker fan? Ouch-it almost hurts just to type the words!

Just because someone got Joe a shirt doesn't make him, eew, I can't even say it- a Husker Fan. Go Cougs!
