Cheyenne Lyn's Birthday

Cheyenne Lyn was born this morning (Jan. 19, 2009) at 10:45 am. She weighed 6 lbs. 10.5 ounces and was 20 1/2 inches long. She is beautiful and has long feet and fingers. Mom and Dad are doing well after a long night's wait. Once she decided upon coming though, she came. It only took 2 pushes. Here are some very new pictures!

Christmas @ Borski's Way

Finding a perfect time to get together gets harder as we grow older and everyone's schedules grow more complicated. We must have looked at 4 different times and dates this year but settled on Dec 22nd (Tylor's birthday as well). It will be the last time for the Borski house. Here are some pictures from the evening although I cannot believe I have none of Carl, Lori and kids although I think we have Alyssa's head in one of them. They were all there as well.

Pierce XMas Party 2008

The Pierce XMas Party was held on Dec. 20th at John Jr.'s house this year. Tylor, Kristin, Sarah, Bruce, the grand kids and I headed out and got there easily following the GPS directions. Sarah and I had picked Bruce up at the airport as he headed home from Mobile. The Mall was packed as we finished our Christmas shopping. It was certainly fun to see everyone. Wyatt and Dakota love playing with the little boys and John's dog, Molly, was great with all the people and excitement. The present swap went well with Cody's girlfriend getting the #1 position. John Sr. and Sheila got matching presents- ha ha. Here are some pictures.

More Thanksgiving Photos

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was at my house. Carl didn't make it until everyone had left. He was out on call from the outage. Here are some pictures.

Kristin's 22nd Birthday

It doesn't seem possible that 22 years ago I gave birth to a beautiful 8 pound+ baby girl. What a fantastic journey began that evening and early morning (arrival time 2:30 am), a journey through school, sports, jobs, Tyler, college, grandkids, apartment, and house buying. An amazing daughter. I wish I had more photos to put in this blog post but I will add the latest, from her home where Bruce and I visited last night to wish her a very happy birthday. She was headed to dinner with Tyler in Portland.

Sarah's Quilt

After years of playing in basketball events and receiving t-shirt after t-shirt, Sarah saved them and begged her mother to make a quilt. It has taken awhile but is finally finished. The squares were cut this summer (30 in all), in between strip color purchased this September, front stitched this October, and final back to front stitching completed November 2nd. Hurray!!!!!!! Now I will need to complete one for Kristin...a Christmas break project.
