Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Day was spend with Brian's family at Kim and Abe's house in San Bernardino. Everyone was present... well, minus Emily+Billy (having dinner with his family in O.C.) and Sylvia and Chloe who, of course, live in England! Always fun to see everyone and dinner was great! I am thankful for having great in-laws! Here is the group picture.

Mojave Road Jeep Trip - November 21, 2009

Brian and I, along with the Mlakars and Andersons, took the Jeep out over part of the Mojave Road. We drove over LOTS of sand, rocks, through dry lakes and through a couple of water crossings over the Mojave River. We had a real good time. Here are a few snapshots.

The 'Station' fire caused a very smoky sunset on September 4, 2009.

Joshuas in Snow

We had a big snow storm on December 17, 2008 dropping well over 12 inches in 24 hours. The storm closed schools which extended our winter break. :) The next morning, I took these pictures two blocks from my house.
