At
the Pool - Sept. 2000
This was just a quick photo with a disposable camera before
they jumped in the pool. But turned out great! |
 |
Isn't
She Cute?
Yes, Kirstie is a cutie, and she loves to pose for the camera.
She's obviously more color-coordinated than her dad! |
 |
Another
Pose.
Didn't I tell you she likes to pose for the camera? What a
ham! |
 |
Ryan
and Aunt Lynn
Aunt Lynn visited us in September 2000. Here she is with Ryan. |
 |
My
Helpers
Kirstie helps me cook, and Ryan washes the dishes. And I have
never ever had to remind them once! (And did you say you were
interested in some swampland in Florida?) |
 |
Archers
In January 2000 we visited my friend Paul Crockett at The
Oaks. He taught the kids archery - and they loved it! |
 |
Oops!
Aren't you supposed to clear the target area before shooting?
It's a good thing Paul is a good shot! |
 |
School
Buddies
I told you they are best friends. Here they are on the first
day of school in 2000. |
 |
Skateboarding
Together
Ryan got a new skateboard in 1999. They managed to find a way
to enjoy it together. |
 |
The
Babysitter
Rosa is our babysitter. She and her husband Dino are great
friends of ours. The kids love both of them! |
 |
Kirstie
Fishes With Us
Kirstie is a little princess, but she has a bit of tomboy in
her too! |
 |
Yuck!
Didn't I tell you she's a little bit of a tomboy? She loves to
help the deck-hands fillet the fish when we're returning from a
fishing trip. But boy does she stink by the time we get home! |

Kirstie
The Boat Captain
Kirstie had a good time driving friend Kenny's boat in the
ocean near Long Beach, CA. |
 |
Ryan
is a Captain Too!
Here's Ryan driving Kenny's boat. This was on Saturday,
December 23rd. That's the great thing about living in Southern
California. While the weatherman was talking about freezing
rain and snow across the country, we were fortunate to enjoy a
warm sunny day at sea! |
 |
Happy
As Can Be
Ryan is definitely hooked on fishing. Here he is after
catching another sand bass. |
 |
The
Perfect Present for a Fisherman
Here's Ryan showing how happy he was to get a fishing
present (Christmas 99). |
 |
Did
He Really Catch That?
Well, let's just say he often embarrasses the older and
more experienced fishermen when we go out on the ocean. |
