Elisa Returns to Mexico

Elisa, Rosy's Sister spent two weeks with us. She celebrated Christmas then her Birthday 26th and then New Year's Eve with us at a party. I have a few pictures at the party I will add later and a few from the airport when she left.

They headed for the baggage check
Later Rosy will put this in Spanish so Elisa and the folks in Mexico can read it as well as those of us who speak, read and write primarily in English. Me for one!
Rosy Gave Instructions to Elisa About How to pack and secure her bags.

Elisa Gave Instructions to Rosy About How to pack and secure her bags.
They are both so proud the got things into the bags perfectly.

Not to the baggage check in
Rosy is giving instructions to the Baggage Guy about how he is suppose to do his job.

Lobby Work
Ok now let's figure this out?
Rosy and Elisa going thru each others purse to be sure everything is ready.

Elisa finally gets through the security check point and heads to the gate.
I know this is probably not one of the more exciting Blog Posts I've done but since I had these videos I thought it might be nice to post them. What the heck else does one do with these short little video clips besides post them to a blog???

2009 Christmas at the White House

Remember you can "click" on any
of the Photos to make them larger.

Christmas turned out to be a nice day for everyone. We got up early for no particular reason and took a little time to relax before Rosy cooked dinner. I know I know you are wondering if I errored in the statement that says "Rosy cooked dinner". Well she did and with only a little help from the rest of us. I cooked potatoes, Honey Baked Cooked the Ham, CostCo did the Apple Pie, I did the Pana Cotta, Elisa did the salad, Natalie and Samantha set the table, Elisa cut and plated the cheese and crackers and did the cereal mix for munching and Natalie did the Costa Rican Tamales, but other than that it was all Rosy. She opened the chips as well and poured them into a large bowl too. Everything turned out terrific.

Rosy and Elisa did a lot of shopping and have done a lost since Christmas. It's what they do, They are experts and do it whenever they get the chance.

The pictures are just a few from the day of Christmas except the first two which were taken when Rosy and Elisa returned from shopping.


Shopping Mavens!

Look how relaxed they appear.

Her is proof that Rosy was working the kitchen. Impressive!

Lots of Presents under that tree.

Another view of the presents under the tree.

Rosy Gets a present.

We had to crawl under the tree to get to all of the gifts

We "Skyped" our families in Mexico and Utah so we could share in the moment.
Kenny seemed to eat everything he received
We are not sure why but he is shown here eating
something.

Elisa received 236 gifts.
Including this Potato which might have been her favorite gift.
It looks like a potato? Maybe it's a Luffa?

Elisa will share her Potato with Natalie if she is required to.

Another of Elisa's gifts

Sam with help from Kalie distributed the gifts.

Lots of wrapping and lots of gifts.
Rosy keeping warm by the fire. Hey! Wait a minute
there is no fire.

Natalie's new Teddy Bear

More of Samantha and the good job of Gift Giving

Sharing with Mexico via Skype

Steve likes Frog Things. This year Natalie gave him a pair of LIVE frogs.
More about these two guys later.

There it is the little Micro Climate Holder for the two frogs.

Natalie looks cool in her new shades, Don't you think.
