Video of Brian and Muse!

CLICK HERE to see a video that the radio station posted of Muse announcing the winner(s) for the poster contest mentioned below.

Muse Poster!

Brian Recently designed a poster contest for the band Muse!



Out of 300 entries his poster made it into the top ten and he got to meet the band and they signed his poster.



Here is Brian with the band. The told were split between his poster and another poster and ended up giving the official grand prize to the other poster. However, they liked it enough that they gave it "2nd" place and gave Brian two 3rd row seat tickets to the show.




Here is a picture from the concert, just to give you an idea of their stage setup. Cool!!!

Sistah!

Brian's sister Anna came to visit last week!



Renee had this idea to get us to lean back on a slanted parking lot but take the picture so it looked flat...not sure if the illusion worked as well as she thought it would.



Here we are at the Pittock Mansion! Thanks for the great picture self timer!



A visit to Portland isn't complete with some Voodoo donuts!

Brian's Birthday Weekend!

HAPPY 26th BIRTHDAY BRIAN!


This past weekend we went to Cannon Beach with Olive. She had lots of good exercise on her bad leg and we had a great time in the 70 degree weather!


We really have forgotten that it's still March with all this warm weather we have been having.




Then on Sunday night we meet a few friends to have a birthday dinner together! It was really nice to see everyone and super special because Brian's sister Anna was in Portland!


We all came back to our place to sing and have birthday cake!


Now our place is all decorated for Brian's Birthday!


We are going out to a birthday dinner tonight and he can open all his birthday presents too! Happy Birthday to you Brian Cook! Yahooo for 26!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!!

Renee woke up today with a plan....



a plan to make cupcakes for everyone in the building.



Lots of eggs and 70 cupcakes later the task was done.

Brian's Commute

Here are a few pictures from Brian's drive home from school every day. Last week he had a few nights and the sun was setting by the time he left.



One of the cool things about his commute is that he drives directly toward Mt. Hood on the way home.
