Christmas 2006 in a Nutshell

We are finishing up some much needed time off and I know that I’ve been delinquent in blogging so I figured I should get y’all up to speed. It’s not really my fault as one of the beauties of this vacation was not being online.

This was our first Christmas as a family and I’ve enjoyed it thoroughly, I’m truly blessed with a great wife, family, home, work, co-workers, greater family and life. The 10th of January will be the 1 year anniversary from when Linda and I moved in together and I wouldn’t trade our life together for anything. Here are some pictures of the highlights of the past couple weeks.

Christmas party at the Escondido home with Dr. Chris and most of my co-workers. Everyone looked great dressed up.

We spent Christmas Day with my Sister & Ike and Mom.

Then took off for a one week vacation trip to Arizona to visit Linda’s brothers and Friends, we clocked about 1300 miles in 7 days.

I’m a bit worried that Devin is going to get spoiled with all the gifts that he got for his birthday and Christmas. Thanks to everyone who gave him something. At least we’ll have plenty of opportunities for object lessons in sharing his toys.

All right that’s a wrap for now. Happy New year everyone, I’m praying for all my friends and family to have one of their best years in 2007.
