Happy New Year

Well we made it through another year again. We made it back home from our Christmas trip to Iowa, although we got rerouted to LAX because Santa Barbara was too foggy to land. Here we were all worried about snow in Iowa and Denver and then it's Santa Barbara weather that throws us for a loop. Oh well. We ended up grabbing a rental car from LAX and driving home. We we're going to rent a car in Santa Barbara anyhow as our Prius decided to not start the night before we left on our trip, we made it to the airport after a frantiv call to a local taxi service. The drive up was certainly foggy, but we made in good time since it was late on New Years eve. We gave a ride to another guy who was on our plane, it turned out he lived in Afghanistan working for an NGO, so he had some interesting stories to entertain us on the ride. We made it home safe and Braedyn was a little trooper the whole time.

We're looking forward to the coming year. We have lots of friends and family coming to visit and some trips planned to go see others. Come visit us if you don't have plans to yet! Braedyn will be starting pre-school in March after he turns 3. Dori will be turning 6 this year and is starting to like the beach more each time we take her. Not too much else planned for the year and no big resolutions here besides working on our tans and getting Talisha surfing. Happy new year to all, we hope to see you all this year.

Here's a picture from our New Years day outing to Rincon beach in Carpinteria (it's still foggy).
