Annual Christmas Letter

Dear Friends and Family,

Thanks for checking out the blog. We hope you enjoy some of the photos and short video clips of what we have been up to for the last year. We have had a busy year as usual and were able to get away a couple times this year. The girls are continuing to grow and keep us on our toes and in the car driving them here and there. We have been blessed with good health and are very fortunate to have many of our friends and family in good health as well.
It has been an interesting year in the yard. If we could describe our experience this year in one word, it would be "Bears". If you look in June and July, you will see the many adventures and mishaps of living next to nature. It has been a challenge and unfortunately we had to give up raising chickens in our yard for their own safety as well as ours.
We went to San Diego at Spring Break and had a very good time at SeaWorld, the Zoos and the Beach. We also rented a yurt for 5 days at Fort Stevens in Oregon where the girls biked for miles gaining a lot of independence.
Heather is still highland dancing, horseback riding and kayaking. Musical theatre, swimming and piano have been Vanessa's prime interests. Both are doing well at school and continue to enjoy learning French.
Todd and my interests have pretty much been work and the girls. Todd still tries to get out once a week for hockey.
We hope that you and your families have a great time this holiday season enjoying each other and appreciating how fortunate we all are to have each other.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Love From Us
