Rachel's Photo Shoot















My dear friend Jill took some great photos of Rachel, Julia, and I.

Christmas Holidays 2010


We enjoyed the Christmas holidays with family and friends. Starting with the always-fun LVA Christmas party, then an "ugly xmas sweater party" where a re-gift of Billy the Big Mouth Bass was the hit of the gift exchange, then our annual cookie decorating party, then Christmas Eve at our neighbor's, then a visit from Ryan and Rhona, the Gramacy grandparents, and the Fresno, CA Reddie's for Christmas Day, then knee surgery on 12/28.

Ho Ho NO!

































Our visit with Santa on Christmas Island at The Lakes went as predicted, Rachel was scared of Santa Claus this year. She kept saying "Shanta", but when it was our turn, she tightened up her grip on me & didn't want anything to do with him.

Julia made a gingerbread house. Julia, Madi, Hunter Riley and I made a bunch of Christmas cards and sent them to the Pat Tillman USO at Bagram AFB in Afghanistan.
