Cindy over at My Romantic Home is hosting a year in review party.Here are a few of my pictures from the past year. Our family took a trip to Big Sur this summer, Chasen played 2 seasons of baseball and he also went to Ft. Tejon to participate in a living history. I also attended to teach the kids blacksmithing.
We hosted backyard movies that included s'more making and theme decorated tables.
I have a new niece this year, Josephine Grace, named after my grandmother. We call her Josie.
We enjoyed our perennial favorites of going to Dodger games and visiting Disneyland with our annual passports. We also found some new things to do such as cherry and apple picking and go-kart racing.
I continued to be my daughter's Brownie Girl Scout leader and Sheridan was in her first Nutcracker ballet as a solider and caught a Leopard Shark off of the Santa Monica pier. She also had 11" of her hair cut off and donated it to Locks of Love.
Being together with family and friends was the hightlight of our year! Looking forward to 2009!

I'm glad you sent me the link to your blog. I've enjoyed seeing it. You have a lot of very interesting posts. Thanks for sending the picture of your kids at Knott's Berry Farm. I was surprised those old statues were still there. Obviously they have been repainted. I don't remember them being that vivid of colors. Of course my old pictures were black and white and it has been a very long time.
You mentioned being a Dodger fan. Of course I'm a Diamondbacks fan and your Dodgers give us a hard time. I was a Dodgers fan when I lived in so cal. After the Angels started playing I decided I liked them better.
Have a great New Year.

Here's to a joyful Christmas and a Happy New Year!
