New Truck

2008-03-02T21:59:00.006-06:00

Hey, everybody!

I've been writing on The Files about the new truck we bought this last week, and said I'd post some pics on here. Sorry if anyone was waiting...

Here they are now! It's a dark blue, '93 GMC Sierra. TK has been driving it everywhere! It's been fun to cruise around with her, too! : )

Blessings,

Stephen for the Biller Family

Two more!

2008-02-17T23:38:00.001-06:00

Here's our new little ones! We had two more goats (twins from our other doe). They are the sweetest little things and are learning everything fromtheir "cousin" Hepzi. Terah has named these two Jasmine (the black/whiteone) and Delilah (the black/brown one).

It is really funny to watch them skipping around the gardens!

Blessings,
Stephen for the Biller Family

Hepzi (she's getting so big!)

New Baby Goat

2008-02-01T18:46:00.000-06:00

We had an addition to the family homestead arrive on Tuesday night. She is a light brown/white female goat named Hephzibah (Hepzi for short).

In the pics, we were bundling her up to take her outside at night to nurse on her mama.

She is the quietist, cutest little thing!

Blessings,

Stephen for the Biller Family

Fun Time, Family Time!

2008-01-18T22:06:00.000-06:00

On Tuesday the 15th we got to see our extended family here in OK, whom we haven't seen all together since Thanksgiving. In addition to this, a cousin we have not seen for several years was able to come out from his home in New Mexico with his young daughter. It was really great to see him again, and get to meet his little girl! This was a cousin that I spent my early childhood years playing with...it was very interesting to talk about where we'd gone with our lives.

It is truly amazing how things change!!!

After a fun night of pizza, laughter and NASCAR video gaming, we got some good pics for the album. Here's one of our favorites...

Lots of love to our family,

Stephen for the Biller Family

Christmas 2007

2008-01-01T21:01:00.000-06:00

Greetings Friends!

Happy 2008! It's great to be here in a new year. Praise the Lord for bringing us to a new 365 days (and one more to boot!) in which we can serve Him!

We had a quiet, cozy Christmas at home with just the immediate family. Some of us were not feeling well, so the big family get together has been postponed.

We hope that each and every one of you had a wonderful holiday season, and that you will have a blessed new year!

In Christ,

Stephen for the Biller Family

Making Christmas cookies...yum!

Opening gifts...so much fun!

Two can fit on this one!

Let It Snow!

2007-12-26T13:07:00.000-06:00

The day after Christmas and we get a surprise gift...snow! Big, soft flakes flew down in flurries creating a magical world outside. Of course, we had to go out and play in it...before coming in for hot cocoa and tea! : )

Keep warm,

Stephen for the Biller Family

Mug Shots

2007-06-11T13:43:00.001-05:00

WE HAVE RETURNED!

(As you can see from the pics further below, we got into some trouble. Just kidding!)

Hey Everyone! We're back!!! = ) Yes, we've been taking one of those often mentioned blogging hiatuses.......No, it was not planned. We did not premeditate that we would not post for 6 months (half a year!); it's just how it happened. And we guess we can now excuse it as an official Blogging Hiatus. Our apologies are otherwise profuse.

The Biller family feels that a public and solemn apology is due to our faithful readers Mrs. Gloria H & Chloe for not posting, even upon request, for half a year.

Now following are the above mentioned pics of what we've been up to recently. We have appropiately titled them our "mug shots". (Notice our dissapointed father on the right side. Sorry, Dad!)

THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH:

We have actually only been working, working, working, sweating, sweating--well you get the point-- on our lastest house building project!

Until next time...............The Billers

Deck the Halls!

2006-12-15T14:57:00.000-06:00

On Wednesday, we decorated our house for Christmas! Dad and most of the rest of the family went on a hike through our property in pursuit of the perfect tree. As usual, we had marked a tree earlier this year that we planned on making our Christmas tree. And as usual, the designated tree just didn't seem as perfect as another close by. Yes, this happens every year! = )

Here are some pics of the Christmas decorating process in our home........

Cassia enjoying the wind-up, carol singing, Christmas figurines.

Zacchaeus putting on his first Christmas ornament!

Terah playing Christmas carols on the piano while Nathanael looks on.

Rachel cleaning up the aftermath from the "Hall Deckers."

Mom also ceaning up the mess.

Benjamin doing a last-minute assembling of a candle decoration.

Wait! Leftover lights must be used! Leaving any lights unhung is a violation of Christmas law. = ) So Ethan literally "Decks the Halls" as he hangs lights above the bedroom doors in the hallway.

Everyone is now thoroughly exhausted, acting wild from too much fun, and waiting for the traditional pic of all the Biller children by the newly decorated Christmas tree.

Try #1

Try #2

The end of a fabulous "Hall Decking" night!!!

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

Snow!

2006-12-03T21:16:00.000-06:00

Hey everybody, here's some pics of the snow that buried our yard and property over six inches deep in several places. It was amazing, beautiful, a nuisance, and the most snow we have ever seen outside of Big Bear in Cali. We have been practically snowed in since Thursday night. Dad was about the only one who could get out until last night. WOW! The bummer thing was that Mom didn't give anybody a snow day! LOL : )

Go grab a blanket and a mug of cocoa and enjoy the pics below! : )

Mike enjoyed the snow (even if Mom didn't enjoy cleaning him up afterwards! : )

Our poor little saplings in the front yard.

This is our driveway on day two (Friday) after Dad had left for work.

Isn't this shot beautiful? I really liked the contrasts of black and white.

Hope everyone's well...God bless...Stephen for the Fam
