Christmas Recap---

In No CERTAIN ORDER!!!

Many of you will remember that Reames has signed with a few companies to be sponsored in his triathlon endeavors...A huge box arrived on Christmas Eve packed full of goodies for him...and included was his long coveted wetsuit...Ruby was fascinated and kept rubbing his arm...saying he felt like a frog!?!?

It made me claustrophobic just looking at him.

ahh- the day after Christmas when the tree comes down...& I DO mean down...

we dismember it and carry it to the street!  Looks kinda like Grinch's tree to me.

The last year this stocking will hang empty...next year--full of goodies!

The Clamos Family Celebration

My brother was in rare form at our family gathering...telling fortunes...

he said I would have MANY CHILDREN...and grey hairs.

Man he's good- it already came true!

I hope your Christmas was as merry and bright as ours...it was hard to be with out our Willa but we celebrated the birth of our Savior and made some fun memories.  The decorations have all been put away as we get ready to celebrate 3 birthdays in January and pack for a BIG trip to China.  We should have our travel dates in the next few weeks and hope to leave early February.

God Bless.
