Welcome to the new Boyer Family Blog!

HERE IS THE FIRST POST of our new family blog.  We hope to strengthen ties to family and friends herewith.

This blog is primarily for Juliana, but I will be doing some regular posting, too.  She is not the early adopter type, so if we do this together the plan is that we can make it stick as she eases into it.

Let's start with some pictures of the arctic conditions that have parked themselves over Portland. "Normal" Portland winter weather is lots of rain and a brief snow storm or two that melt away within a day or less.  This year we have been hammered with cold and snow that refuses to go away.  Church has been cancelled the most recent two weeks.  UPS was supposed to deliver a package on 12/12, but it is now 12/23 and it is still being held at the local distribution center due to weather conditions.  We are snowed in and haven't gone anywhere in days.  The good news is that we will have a White Christmas, the kids are having fun playing outside, we are spending lots of time together as a family and we have enough milk in the fridge to last until warmer weather returns (we hope).
