whew... and what a holiday week it has been.
an impromptu holiday party hosted by Suzanne & Paul on Friday night ... so, so good to spend time with friends...
Christmas Eve at The Creek ... our first time at Cherry Creek Presbyterian, we both really enjoyed the evening and plan to return to this church again soon.
a Christmas Day surprise ... Jerod positively spoiled me ... I asked for a simple electric griddle (for making pancakes on Saturday mornings) and instead, I got this - and apparently they went like hotcakes (pun intended), he had to track down the last one in the area... what a guy...
feeding my sugar-free-vanilla skim latte addiction ... my parents answered my Christmas wish in a big way with this treat... the folks at my local starbucks will miss me, no doubt, but i couldn't be happier... and how lucky am i to have a husband who ran out and picked me up some ground espresso, sugar-free-vanilla syrup and shot glasses the very next day?
a lovely trip to Breckenridge today - a first for my parents and sister - what fun, showing them the town and reminiscing about our honeymoon there. love this place: a quaint ski town with a Victorian flavor, great shops, gorgeous views... Jerod and I will be back at the end of January for the annual International Snow Sculpture Championships ... we stumbled upon the event in 2002 and loved it! can't wait to return...
just one more full day with my family before they return to San Diego Friday morning ... it's never easy to see them go, we both so enjoy spending time with them. for me, their visit is truly the best Christmas gift of all.
emjoy your time with your family!
I'll come make you lattes with that cool new maker of yours.....i used to work for starbucks! lol

I'll give you $2.50 for a vanilla latte! That's save me two buck! "I want my two dollars!"
Love the pics and the stories. Excellent Christmas presents Jerod and Sharon's family! I hope the fam enjoyed their stay in Colorado and you all have a safe trip home!
Oh my God, I love that cat picture (Loki with the ball of string). The sofa one is cute too, but I love the close up.
