Major Update

The holidays are over and here's a look back for all of you into what Jesse and I were up to. To start, however, Jesse and I wanted to thank everyone who contributed to our Christmas gift to World Vision. With all of your help we were able to raise $1800! Thank you so much for blessing people who truly are in need.

Before my brother, Paul, and his ladyfriend, Jaya, gallivanted off to Florida to visit my family, Jesse and I were able to celebrate (belatedly) Jaya's birthday. Here's a pic from our dinner at Elephant Bar. We had such a great time and to be honest, we really love them :)

Now to Christmas day! Jesse and I spent Christmas Eve night at the Marbles, and when we woke up we spend some great quality time with Mark and Christie. Nick, Brittney and Connor came over a little after lunch time and then the fun began of watching Connor open his gifts and be his funny self!




















During our Christmas dinner, Connor showed us one of his new tricks. He got pleanty of laughs from all of us:)





We were lucky to be able to spend a few days with Mark and Christie because of my 4 days off from work. So...we brought our friend's Wii with us! Here's a hilarous look at Mark and Christie boxing against each other. I've never seen Christie laugh so hard!




And now...introducing the line-up for the 2009 Manitou Marbles!!!



















We went to the batting cages the other day and had a blast. Tried to be tough.
Merry Christmas, Happy Year New, Etc. from the Manitou Marbles.
