Marcio's Visit

Marcio came on Sat. Dec. 5 . We always welcome him back to our home and are excited when he comes to visit. He was our exchange student from Brasil in 94 & 95. He spent 3 days with us leaving on Dec. 8 and going to New York for a few days before he returned to his home. He has very cute twin daughters who we have not met but got to see some great pictures. His wife has visited with us in the past but didn't come on this trip. We have also met his dad and one of his sisters. Kristin has met his whole family because six years ago at Christmas she went to Brasil for 3 weeks and stayed with them.

Office Christmas Party

12-4-2009 It seems I am always in charge of my work Christmas Parties. This year was no exception and here are a few pictures just before it started. We ate first then played games, and ended up having a great time. The menu included chips and dip, bacon wrapped little smokies, pinwheel sandwiches, shrimp, meatballs, huckleberry cheesecake, and red velvet bundt cake.

We played Christmas Trivia, Christmas Bingo and added the spin wheel this year but it did include the infamous dice game. I actually came home with a few prizes this year, $10 cash, walmart gift card, and candle.
