Merry Christmas

I spent Christmas in Fallon, NV (Reno) this year with Nikki and her family. We went gambling on Saturday night and I won about $100....beginners luck I guess! We had a wonderful Christmas eve and Christmas day with Chad's family in Fallon. I do not have any pictures from Christmas day because my eye was so swollen from allergies. In fact, all my gambling money went to doctor and prescription fees. My eye is doing much better now.

I took Kristi and Melissa bowling before Christmas and we experimented with my camera...see below




I got my White Christmas when I flew into Spokane on Christmas night. It was so beautiful, but the roads were pretty slick! I came back to the Tri-cities on Wednesday and went Back to work on Thursday--busier than ever...will it ever slow down??
Merry Christmas to all and may your New Year be filled with many Blessings from above.

Jeske Family Christmas

We had a great weekend with the Jeske family. We did our annual gift exchange and had quite a few laughs. "Would you rather...?" spurred lots of communication. The Jeske grandkids and their spouses went bowling...gotta love those family traditions!
To sum up the weekend...good food, great company, memories created, and memories of the past remembered!

Christmas is coming!!!

Seattle in November-- Stefanie and I went to Seattle at the beginning of November. The trip was not what I expected, but we had some cool adventures. We stayed at the Camlin--one of my Trendwest locations. The room was awesome and right downtown Seattle. Our first morning there, we noticed that Brandy Carlisle was performing at the Paramount theatre that night....it was such an amazing concert and we had great seats. The concert was unique in that Brandy sang a song unplugged--no microphones, had her sister sing a song with her, and sang a few songs that were not in the usual concert.
We did some serious window shopping and actually ventured into the Seattle streets. We found a neat little bead shop and stopped in to browse. I went to dinner with Aunt Deb and Uncle Joe at a great Greek restaurant in Seattle. The food was excellent, especially the yummy appetizers and dessert. I love seeing my family and remembering old memories and making new ones!
We went to the Clumsy Lover concert at the Tractor in Ballard. I was disappointed that the lead singer was not his usual self.
