Christmas 2007


2007 has been a year filled with wonderful memories, some of which we’d like to share with you at this sacred time of year. We’ll start with ladies first.
Gretta has grown lightning fast in many different ways over the last 12 months. She celebrate her 2nd birthday and she’s already brought immense joy to our family. Over the last year she has learned to walk, run, use the “potty”, put on her coat, and help mommy around the house. She also has become the first member of the lifetime Elmo Fan Club. Gretta also enjoys going to play dates with her friends, going to the park, seeing her buddy Mickey at Disneyland, and trips in airplanes to Idaho.
Gretchen has been busy balancing her roles as wife, mother, nurse practitioner, and advisor to the young women at church. She continues to do a splendid job of maintaining a home where love is felt, raising a beautiful daughter who appreciates all the beauties of the Earth.
Eric is as stingy as ever and working as a banker only adds to this fatal problem. He has been busy working for BofA as an underwriter in their Commercial Bank. When he’s not lending money he has found the time to take the GMAT test for MBA School (he was very happy with his 700 score!), renewed his love of surfing, and served in the youth organization at church. In a matter of weeks, Eric’s responsibilities at church increased exponentially. He went from teaching the 8 year olds to being scoutmaster over the 11 year olds to now being in charge of all the boys ages 12-18. He guesses this is recompense for all the grief he put his youth leaders through growing up.
2007 has been filled to the brim with everything we could have asked for.
Now don’t go getting any ideas about dropping off our Christmas card list; we promise to have new material by next Christmas 2008. And if you can’t wait until then, check back with us sometime around the end of April, forecasts are that we should have some pretty good news to share around that time.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
