Back to the Beach






We flew back to Texas and spent another week boogie boarding, learning to surf, having fires, stuffing our selves with great food, beach combing,  making friends, going to the Aquarium, and all in all having a great time!  It was vvery hard to leave last Sunday!  Thanks to everyone in Port A and Colorado for SO much!  We miss you already......We are already thinking ahead to next year.......Here are a few more pictures.

Congratulations on 50 years!


Pat and Joanne celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary this year! We got to spend it with them at a wonderful party with friends and family!  We also had two more Christmas's; one with my family and one with Matts.  I regretfully have very few pictures and hope to beg some from others!  We were so happy to see everyone and had a ball!




Texas December 2008






Ahhhh!  Back in the Gulf Coast of Texas!  Port A is a very special place to us.  Partly because of the location and partly because of the incredible people we get to be with there!  We were so glad to go spend some time with our friends!  We even got to see the Eckleys FINALLY :)  For three days there were 21 of us formerly or currently from Cordova together in one warm place!  It was a dream come true.  We played in the surf and sand, ate and drank till our bellies were full to bursting and even had impromptu, family friendly relay races in the dark on the high school track on Christmas Eve.  Santa found us all even though we were scattered and every one was happy.  Christmas Day we spent a leisurely morning opening gifts and then packing up.  Us for a 4 day trip with in a trip to Colorado and others for places further south (like the Galapagos Islands south!).
