Lake Arrowhead

We spent a few nights in the snow with the Blaka's at their beautiful lake house. Not as much snow as last year, but Jeff and George found a school with a steep slope for sledding. We love getting our families together... the kids have fun while we adults catch up on some quality time together.










Christmas Day

We headed up to Grandma Lang's for a beautiful day with the family. Everyone was there visiting, playing and enjoying good eats!








Christmas Morning

Rip into your stockings and check for surprises! Most importantly... HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS!






Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve we had a special dinner with Ginny and Gene and let the girls open some presents early. There's nothing like watching the joy of kids on Christmas. So much anticipation... and the time has finally come!






Richard's Christmas Party

Richard's Annual Christmas Party always includes a visit from Santa and the wave photo op.



Polar Express Day

The last day of school before Christmas break calls for a party. Wear your pj's and hop on board the Polar Express for a day of fun and adventure. The 1st graders warmed up with some hot chocolate and treats while watching the movie, then exchanged gifts with their secret Santa. Jeff went down to help... and Josette was thrilled to have her Dad there!



Santa Clause is Coming to Avenue C

The girls were waiting with anticipation for Santa to arrive. Every year the Redondo Beach Police and Fire Dept roam the streets of South Redondo with their sirens blowing as Santa cruises in his sleigh to meet and greet the children. Josette worked hard on her list and made sure to tell him that she and her sisters have been NICE this year! What a special treat to have a home visit from Santa BEFORE Christmas!
