Christmas In California


Merry Christmas everyone. Most of you should've gotten our first Christmas letter but if you didn't, let me know and I'll send it. So as not to repeat myself, I thought I would add a few comments here for you regulars and any of you that might start dropping by as a result of the letter.

Another one of our new traditions will be visiting "Back to Bethlehem". Rocky Peak builds a small Bethlehem complete with actors, venders, the stable w/ Mary, Joseph and a baby Jesus, Roman soldiers, Angels, sheep, a donkey and camel. It is quite something. A beautiful contrast of how Jesus was born with Los Angeles in the background. We had such a great time. And the actor who played Joseph did so well, I left in tears.

The other obvious tradition will be going to Disneyland for their Christmas Display. See the picture? See the Santa in the background? We used this picture to remind Colin that "Santa is always watching." It worked. Disneyland is absolutely beautiful. Always such a good time!

Love to all of you.

Well, Merry "late" Christmas. I wish we were celebrating with you!
We miss you all and hope you have a wonderful and safe New Year !
Tell JD that JD (weird) has the room textured and ready to paint. We went today and bought paint and carpet... YEAH. He wants to have it ready to watch the superbowl. Yeah right!

You were absolutely right. . .Disney is beautiful at Christmas time. Our holidays were quite similar this year, only on different sides of the US. Love you!
