The Rest of 2009.

So before we went to Oregon, we went to Texas to watch what turned out to be Luke's last game as a (world famous) Follett Panther. As you can see, Anna did a super good job cheering:




So did Betsy and Jenny.
Some fans are better than others...
Here is a look at how awesome Luke played (he is the ball carrier in this clip):


It was good clean fun, all except for the outcome of the game, that is. And the temperature.
We were all super proud of Luke and Levi.


After we came back from Oregon it was time for the annual Birthday trip to Oklahoma. It was extra fun 'cause Abby came too.


We tried to take family pictures. This is an example of how that went.
Linda got a Snuggie.


Later in the month we went to get new cell phones. It was a pretty long wait, so we let Anna play with the camera.

She wanted a picture of herself too.

This picture really captures just how boring it is to be a 4 year old in a cell phone store.

They are so happy here because we are finally being helped.


Later that day I changed the alternator and batteries on Swheatie.
Hopefully we won't have any more smoking batteries for a while.

Linda's friends had a birthday party for her. I went to it.

I had a birthday too.


Then there was Christmas.
It was merry.


We made bread. Which was fun and sad.

We had a visitor for Christmas. Her name was Bell.

A lot of Lobmeyer's came to visit. It was heartwarming to see all of the cousins interacting:
Here is a look at the chaos which is Lobmeyer Christmas.

After Christmas I got to take Hailey and Beau's engagement pictures. I borrowed Dad's fancy camera. Here are a couple pictures I took while trying out the different settings:

Then we took a lot of engagement pictures. It was fun.

I finished out the year playing with RPM at GVC's New Year's party. This was signifigant because I got to gig out my 7 piece for the first time:


And that was the end of 2009.
