Nana Sue & Uncle Gary Visit

Although ALL our plans were postponed due to the storms that passed through California, the kids thoroughly enjoyed puddle jumping.

In between storms, we ran everyone quickly down to the beach. Because the sand was so manky, we had to buy sea shells for Aiden to throw in the ocean.

Gary checking out the hotties playing volleyball on the beach.

All the gang playing "Rockband" on the Xbox. Turns out, they all sucked, I was the best singer!

Bubbles ... Bubbles ... Bubbles ...

Disneyland ... Gary's favorite place!

More Memories!!!

I miss hair like this !!!

Graduation to Orange Belt!

Expensive but very worth it!

Memories ...

Been looking through a lot of pictures recently, trying to get the ones I want scanned into our computer for safe keeping. So, before safely tucking away some of these pictures, I thought they deserved another viewing.

From left to right, Manda Hansen, Melissa Meridith and Tory Hansen. It's hard to believe that three such beautiful women were such total dorks!

Go Tom! It's your birthday!

Pretty Robby, I think this was in San Francisco.

Again ... total dorks!

Christmas Eve ...

This is the second year that we have attended a party where the real Santa visits around 8 pm. He has a bag with gifts for everybody & though Ella didn't really like sitting on Santa's lap, she was fascinated with him most of the night.

Aiden is patiently waiting for Santa to call his name.

This is a fully tamed, neutered pet possum. It turns out that this is the best pet ever; they are cold blooded, so their bodies do not tolerated disease. No shots required and minimal vet visits; I'm not sure how possums didn't become "Mans Best Friend".
