hiatus over

It has been a long time since we have updated this. So, here are a few of the things that we have been up to in the last 2 years:



Did I mention we went to Disneyland?


Heather has been climbing


Sierra has been...climbing


Ysabel has been climbing


Oh, we also got a bunch of chickens...they got eaten by a neighbors dog though...We have new ones now...and a fence, as an aside it is hard to believe that Maya is using this dress now.


Phil has been fishing


and Maya has been climbing.

It would appear that some of these things are not like the others.


The winter of 2010-11 has also been the year that we decided that we were going to teach the girls to Ski. It went a little like this:



Phil went snowboarding
Heather went skiing
Ysabel learned to ski
Sierra learned to ski
Maya learned to ski
Phil realized that he was missing out and HE also learned to ski.

This year has been quite enjoyable. We took a spring trip up into Moscow (Cow-Town), Idaho and had a wonderful visit with the Carman's. Shortly after that Phil had the chance to go to Costa Rica and be part of a group exploring and fly fishing from one Costa Rican coast to another. And the entire family actually went climbing. Growing up together really has its rewards AND its challenges. However, we would not trade it for all the PS2 games in China...We mean it!


Just a couple of parting shots

Phil, skiing is fun. Glad you tried it. I think that after several years of not skiing after high school, when I finally did it again..I was like --man this is the best. Let us know if you ever hit up Disneyland again, and I will head over there with my girls to see you guys--and please feel welcome to stay with us anytime in Pasadena. Love your family and miss you all...mostly Heather ; ) Lis
