Robby Visits Ranch

RB came out to bounce the lil guy on his knee.

Christmas Night with the cousins

Christmas Morning

Here we are...Christmas morning on the ranch.


Caden roasting by an open fire.


Plenty of presents for the lil guy. Merry Christmas!

Play time

Caden's new favorite word is hat.

"OY VEY IZ MIR"


"I got an interview with Perry White down at the Daily Planet."

Holiday at the Newmans

We went up to Greg and Debbie's for a holiday dinner. It was like a vacation getaway. Fine food and many laughs.

As we sat to enjoy dinner, Caden decided to call for take out.

Iron Bladder Lee suffered a blow out and it turns out we didn't have any spare trousers...so we went leg warmers...poor lil guy.

Chillin' by the fire with Miss Deb and Latte.

Never too early for Hall Hockey

This reminds me of my lacrosse days back at SDSU. Caden was no match for Charlie's strong wrist in the faceoff.


Hip Check!


Charlie showing off on the breakaway.

Parenting Class

Early Christmas with Family Lee

Terry, Sonia and lil Charlie came down for an early Christmas celebration. We all gathered in Coronado for some food and frolicking. Caden and Charlie hadn't seen each other in awhile, so we were anxious to get the cousins together.


Ben showed off the missing tooth that Caden knocked out at Thanksgiving...by dropping a plastic jack-in-the-box not with fisticuffs


Caden proceeded to throw a tantrum as we all sat for dinner, so we diverted his attention with an early present.


And we took some time for the standard family portraits...

Overnight with Granny and Grandad

Gayle and I went up to Newport Beach for the annual Crestline Party. Caden got to play and play in Coronado. Looks like everyone had some fun.
