.............Happy New Year!!

We hope that 2009 was good to you and your family, it was a little tough here but we seem to be overcoming that and are ready for a wonderful 2010. Now that our winter season is in full swing in Tahoe, Janelle is back to work and Andy has been working a ton. Kids are just winding down from their Christmas Break and nobody is excited for school to start back up. We did add a new member to our family over the break (see photo below) and he is fitting in nicely. Christmas was fun and early as usual, kids got up at 3:30 and subsquently got Andy and I up to share the excitement. I think one of Brycen's favorite gifts was a foot massager from Costco LOL. Addy got an erector set plus other miscl and Ty's favorites are his new laptop and pull-up bar. Dad, Sara and Walter joined us for a nice Prime-Rib dinner and ended hanging out longer than usual which was a welcome surprise. We ended our year with a fun progressive dinner with our neighbors that ended in a fire-pit and smores dessert at the cul-de-sac and sparklers in the snow.
Happy Birthday Mom, and Grandma Eva this January (sorry to anyone I forgot). Hug your special people today and let them know how special and loved they are, would be nice for us to see some of you this summer so we are working on that.
HAPPY NEW YEAR........already getting excited for Valentines Day!!
Love Janelle and family

It was nice to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with Kevin and Geana!!

We were blessed with a fun visit from Andy's brother and his wife, Kevin and Geana over the Thanksgiving week. It was fun to get to know them better and we are looking forward to our next visit with them. Addy had Kevin drawing every animal under the sun (you're such a sport Uncle Kevin.) Geana fits in perfectly with our competitive family game of SPOONS, and we got in some girl time with my first pedicure EVER. We hit the beach on Thanksgiving morning for a relaxing start and we couldn't have chosen a better family to spend our time with. We love you guys!!

He took a major header after this photo but nothing a little tylenol couldn't fix.
