Thanksgiving and Christmas 2007
We had a wonderful time at Yosemite and its white blanket of snow. We spent Christmas Eve with Kathy and family. At home we visited apple orchards near the Redlands Temple and bought some apple cider.
We visited the Smiths and got to know their neighborhood. We had a great family outing at a mexican restaurant and then watched the new 'Enchanted' movie. We exchanged gifts and had a lot of laughs from our new 'Cranium' board game we received. We were there to see the arrival of their new sofa sectional. We highly recommend their king-size bed in their guest room with the 400 thread count sheets.
Marianne's family visited us for Thanksgiving and we had a nice visit. We went to Disneyland and got passports for the next year. Frank and Amy were kind to cook the turkey and we enjoyed Mom's homemade pumpkin pie which she made from squash she brought down in her suitcase. Dad increased the height of our interior doors for our bedroom shag carpet, helped assemble our crib (Marianne is expecting our first child in June) and fixed our sliding screen door. Frank took some of us to visit the Midway aircraft carrier museum in San Diego.
Friday we ate at Rainforest Cafe.

A Work In progress
We were able to lay down our sod last Friday and Saturday with help from family and the missionaries. Then we had a relaxing Saturday evening with Marianne's family.
Becky surprised Marianne by having beautiful flowers sent in appreciation for taking care of her children while she and Jim shopped for a house in the Phoenix area.
We have been able to pick out our bedroom and living room furniture and are happy to have it before Marianne's family visits at Thanksgiving time.
Shortly after our honeymoon, we began our landscape project.
Here is an update of our curb appeal improvement project. We have trenched the front and back yards and are now assembling the sprinklers. We have finished planting all the landscape plants which we purchased through Roy. After all this work, today Marianne has been seriously considering installing fake grass.(Just kidding)
