Happy 2010...

Hard to believe 2010 is here. We had a great Christmas & New Year down in California and are back into the swing of things up in Oregon. Special thanks to Doug and Anne for their hospitality and a special cheer to the new Beach House.

January is off to a busy month with Ellie's Girl Scout Cookie sales, Nisa's new swimming lessons and both Ellie and Nisa starting music lessons. Nisa will be learning piano and Ellie the violin. Roger & Mika will be hoping for the best... ;-)

Maile has been her usual entertaining self lately. After watching the movie Madagascar the other day she would not stop singing the theme song, "I like to move it, move it".

Maile has also reached a new level of defiance lately. When told it was her bedtime the other night she yelled, "No, NEVER!" and ran away. Ahhh, the joys of parenthood...
