Random pics... Catching Up!

I had gotten so far behind with uploading pictures from my camera, so a few of the pictures below were from November. Hope you enjoy!! :)

Jen and Queso on Christmas Eve (before surprising Ryan on Christmas morning!)


Ryan, Jen and Queso on Christmas morning (Poor little Scout missed all the fun that morning!)


Christmas breakfast... ready to eat!
(I'm loving my new Norman Rockwell collector dishes from 1975, 76 and 77) Fun!!!


Below are a few pictures from our girls trip to San Antonio where Jeri, Christen and Susan ran in the Rock 'n Roll Marathon.

Sally perched on the window ledge "looking" out the window in our hotel room. Those of you who know our family very well understand that Sally has joined in many trips and vacations. She is very well-traveled!! :)

Jeri and Jen

Below is a pic of Jeri, Susan and Christen REALLY early before the race began... They had to walk about a mile to get to the starting line. There were THOUSANDS of runners joining them that morning. (Unfortunately, I just don't "get" the joy of running, but I'm happy to be the one to drop them off so they could sleep a few extra minutes and avoid riding the bus with the other gazillion runners!)


Back to Christmas Eve... It started snowing earlier in the day on Christmas Eve, and this is what it looked like when we got home from Kobe's that night. Beautiful!!

The bushes in the back yard were so delicately covered with snow. It was so pretty!! It was so special to have a white Christmas for what will probably be the last Christmas in this house. It's been 26 years (1983-2009). Unbelievable...

Old friends came 'round to visit on Christmas Eve... Zach, Sierra, and Jon.
Just like old times!! My dad has a picture of Jon and Sierra from Homecoming when they were in high school. Of course, he doesn't know Sierra very well, but when she was walking through the house, he said... "You know... that girl looks a lot like the girl in the picture on my refrigerator!" I laughed and said... "Yes, that's because it's the same girl! It was really cute!!
