CHRISTMAS 2010

Mom ready with the camera

So we start with the tree, and presents.......

Now, the unwrapping ......

(a few useful stocking stuffers)

Then, the dressing up..................

Emma's soccer party.

Attempt number 1 at a christmas card photo

One would think the oldest child would be the most cooperative. NOT

Getting all four of my monkeys to pose for a picture is NO simple task.

Of course this photo session was completely impromptu, hence the "I love NY" shirt worn by Twinkie and the Aeropostle shirt by Devon. Yes, Yes, had Devon known he would have worn his famouse red Bedoyecta shirt we all hate so much.

Nope, got nothing to say about this one.

The picture pretty much says it all.

Random pics from the past

Miss California pageant 2005. Rebecca did great.

A visit from Adrian

All the way from the UK a lovely surprise.

A Birthday Surprise for Auntie!!!

My brother in law threw a wonderful surprise party for Rebecca to celebrate her 30th.


Two of her besties helped with all the food and planning.

A night at the Opera:

Becca performing at CSUF.

I do believe little Emma will be following in Auntie's footsteps (or should I say vocal chords).

A double birthday celebration: Hayden and Leila

A special visit from Hayden and Greg who we haven't seen since Becca's wedding. We all met at my dad's house and celebrated Hayden's 40th and Leila's 11 birthday.

Of course we have to take lots of pictures and the piano (as always) is the perfect backdrop.

Leila gets her ears pierced

For Leila's eleventh birthday she wanted to get her ears pierced. So a trip to South Coast plaza we made. She was a little nervous but soon overcame any fears of pain.

Picking out which stud to put in...

She chooses a pretty green.

And with a little pinch of the gun..... VOILA!

the many faces of Devon and Hair do's
