Christmas vacation in Utah

Porter and Me sledding in the backyard at my parents house.

Porter at the Tree House Museum. My mom worked her magic and got us in for free.

My very beautiful Christmas morning photo. You are never too old for new Christmas jammies at the Welch/Jensen household. Porter got way more presents from his grandparents than he got from his parents.

So this is our only family picture with everyone looking during the holidays. This is also a picture of Jeff about 1 week post maxilofacial surgery. If he looks a bit swollen and glazed over it is because he is.

oct-dec 2010, your welcome

Our Favorite cow trunk or treating

Porter and ribs, need I say more.
Our annual Christmas tree photo.

Porter Christmas Morning smelling his flowery bows. Way more interesting than anything inside the wrapping.

October 2010

Porter loves to stick his tongue out at the camera when he is supposed to be smiling, he reminds me of Jonny off of Karate Kid.
Carving Pumpkins.. me and the tongue.
Water skiing with Jeff "the rooster" Jensen.
Okay so this is still September, Jeff and Paul on Lake Pend O'reille.

Here's what has been happening

Porter turned one year on July 10th. Here is his classic cake mauling experience.
Porter and Jeff: We like to ride our bikes to the beach in the summer and go for a swim, then ride home. Porter's favorite thing to do is ride bikes.


Porter and Jeff before dual, buzz cuts....notice I don't have the after picture on here. Porter's didn't turn out so great and it took me two days to actually complete.
Jeff's dad came to visit us in September, this is us amongst the fog at Caribou Lake.

Fun Times

This is how we win the "parents of the year award". Porter Riding bikes with his mom and dad.


First camp out of the year, we got rained on, but had much fun.

Surfing with the Jensen clan in San DiegoPorter after a nice meal of seaweed and sand. He loved the beach!!

April Showers

Porter is getting a little too good at climbing, the TV stand....


We had a fun visit with Grandma Pam and we are so glad she came!

This picture is of Porter's enthusiasm for showers and how much he enjoys stripping down to join in on the fun.However, he doesn't prefer the getting dressed portion after the shower. Did I mention he like to climb?

This is Jeff, did he pull out of it or wipe out? you choose the ending...

"Found your camera Rork"

The cone heads- Porter after waking up and Jeff after skiing....the worst bed head ever!


Hiking mikinike trail by our house.

This one goes out to my mom, I let him tear that entire drawer apart for you!


Porter loves many people, but the only one he would French kiss for months was the mirror image of himself. He continues to be very pleased with his own appearance.
