Zin Fest!

Hi All,

We went up to the Zin Festival in Paso Robles last weekend. We went to a few events - Friday evening at StillWaters, and Saturday at Justin and Opolo. It was not too crowded and a lot of fun. The evening at StillWaters was the best of the three. It was a beautiful evening to be strolling around the winery and Paul, Pat & Kasey broke out some old, fine wine. And, as usual, we had a great time hanging out with Bob and Marolin. They're the best!

Happenings in early March

Hi All,

We went up to Atascadero recently to see Bob and Marolin and do a little yard work :). We had a blast.



Workin with the vines. I could do this for a living!











If any of you are thinking about what to get me for my birthday... I'd like to have this truck! No, really!








Katie's baby shower.

















We had another theme dinner this weekend. This time we served Japanese food and drink. A great time was had by all!






















And, lastly, Karen's nephew Thomas was baptized today! He was cutest and best behaved youngster in the crowd!

On the road

As you probably know, Derek just returned from a 6-week tour in Western Europe and the UK. Sounds like they had a great time!



Here are a couple of pictures of Derek in Leeds, UK and their tour bus.




Also, Dani arrived in Thailand yesterday. She is staying near a town called Pattaya, if you'd like to check it out (the weather looks, well... ugh!). Keep her, Willie and family in your prayers for safe travel.

Tahoe!

Hi All,

Sorry for the delay in posting these. A lot of the pictures did not come out well, user error on my part unfortunately. Anyway, here are a few of the ones that did.

We had a great time! Can't wait to do it again!
