Thanksgiving in LA

Two sleeping kids.....it's like heaven in the car!! We drove down to So Cal on Wednesday to see the Gilles Family and hang out for the holidays....We had a BLAST! They are sooo much fun! Linden had a great time with cousin Sally and Thomson. And we got to meet Macey and Colby- their 2nd cousins, from Vegas. I had not seen my cousin Julie in over 10 years!!! We had a great time and lots of fun Thanksgiving memories!

Weekend with Footsie

He even had a Harley Davidson motorcycle jacket!!!

This photo was Linden's idea- she set them all up and stuck her head in there! It was really cute to see her be a little photo director!!:)

We got to adopt a Bear this weekend. He is the bear at Footsteps- Linden's preschool, everyone gets to take him home for the weekend throughout the year! We even took him to our weekly Sushi outting----who knew- Bears like sushi!
Linden had to take care of Footsie- put him in his jammies, get him dressed and be accoutable for where he was at all times! She was wonderful at it!!! She's such a caregiver!

Chris Gulker Memorial

Today, we honored the life of an amazing photographer, Chris Gulker, my friend. He was so amazing- I have been working with him at www.inmenlo.com
He and his wife were such an amazing inspiration- they loved eachother so very much. It was so amazing to see them together-the picture of an exellant relationship.
He had been very strong, the past four years, batteling brain cancer. He was a photographer for the LA Times- he photographed Farrah, circo 1984-


(Shot by Chris) and other celebrities, like George Burns. Such an inspiring career! He even photographed ME- in July, what an honor!
Here are some pics from the service today- he was born in New Orleans- so there was a New Orleans style brass band.



Dancing to "When the Saints go Marching In"- what a celebration!











Grace- Chris' 3 year old grandaughter. So cute!

Also- to mention, Chris had one of the FIRST blogs ever- he essentially created the electronic blogsphere. So you would not be reading this blog, if not for Chris' endevors.
