Christmas

For the second Christmas in a row our whole family is together, which is a blessing. Here we are all gathered around a pot of chocolate fondue...cause that's one of the things we do best -- pig out. And if we're not eating together, most likely we're playing cards or dominoes. How dorky. Stelpstra family fun time!

Here I am with Stephen Barnhoorn - he spent Christmas day with us while his dad had an emergency appendectomy and his mom stayed at the hospital. It sucked for them, but we had a great day with the little guy. Below is my brother helping Stephen figure out his new train.

The Wedding Party

The Wedding

Arizona

I just got back from a week in Arizona for one of my best friends' weddings. She is Jihae, and she married another friend, Chris. I met them both in Korea. It was so great to be there, spend time with friends and witness this awesome union. I'm so excited for them cause they are two of the coolest people ever. Love em both.

Back home

My dear Erika (and anyone else who is completely frustrated that I haven't updated my blog in a while),
I'm terribly sorry but I just can't figure out how to upload pictures from my photo program onto this blog. I am not very good at this sort of stuff. However, I will keep trying. But I am tired of it tonight. Please be patient.

But just a note...I am back at home in Abbotsford BC. It has been snowing since Monday. It's quite pretty, actually. I don't even mind it. I started work on Thursday, and that went okay. I will keep updating this blog with random pictures I take of friends and family and stuff around home. Wouldn't want to disappoint my fan and give her one less thing to do when she gets to work in the morning. ;)
