This Is Not Sunny San Diego

So while Stewart is off at a history conference in sunny, 70 degree F, San Diego, we are back home having our 6th snow day, mostly staying inside. But hey, we don't really mind being at home, catching up on reading, playing Legos, learning new magic tricks, and watching movies.

Bella would really rather be in sunny San Diego


And if you're still wanting some leftover holiday cheer, tune in to Brooke's recent Christmas piano concert - (the images are fuzzy, but the sound is better. First pause our "Tunes on the Fly" box, so you can hear the piano music):

Pat-a-Pan - Brooke and Chloe - Piano duet

Welcome 2010!

This next slideshow is of the Minnesota gathering of the Brewer and Conner families. We were grateful to have family photos and then celebrate New Year's Eve with a dinner and party, and finally have sweet Elizabeth's baby blessing. Many thanks to Jerry and Jen for all they did for the gathering and to Robin and Darren's family for traveling by van round-trip 56 hours to get there and back. Good to spend time with family and fun for the cousins to play.

Christmas with Family in Wisconsin

This slide show has some photos from Brooke's music concerts - trombone, choir, and piano. The rest is of memories of the time with my family in Wisconsin over Christmas week. It was so good to come home and spend time with Mom and Dad, plus Taylor and Darin and Derrick and Amy's families, and the dogs. Thanks Mom and Dad for all you did and do for us and for your abundant love!
