Christmas in Georgia

I got to spend a week with family over Christmas. This pic was taken at PF Chang's after a 3-D, IMAX viewing of Avatar! Thanks for arranging this Steph :-) From left to right--Stephanie (sis) and Lexie (niece), my dad (Jerry), my mom (Sandy), Kim (sis), Jessica (neice), Steve (almost brother-in-law) and Anthony (THE brother-in-law).


These two goof balls are my nieces and the most awesome girls in whole wide world. We had jump roping contests and both of them easily made it to 100!









It's pretty great being an aunt.

My Dad doesn't mess around, he's building an airplane! An RV7. Every time I go home he's a little further along. This time he was working on the instrumentation. Hopefully, that went well so he can fly this thing Seattle...

Darren's bouncey birthday celebration in Bellevue

"What else would you do to celebrate your 41st birthday? Thirteen of us got together Sunday to wish Darren happy birthday and bounce around for an hour--it was a blast! Definitely the best way to play dodge ball. The festivities then moved to a little nearby pub for some food and beverages. All in all, a great way to spend the afternoon. Happy birthday Darren!



Darren's prior career as a college diver became evident at the sponge pit. Here he's just showing off.
