Shailer Mailer: christmas at the shailer's
http://shailer-mailer.blogspot.com/2014/12/christmas-at-shailers.html
Christmas at the shailer's. Our Nativity Scene . . . sitting on the piano. Our Christmas Village - lit up with very neat micro LED lights. This tinsel Christmas tree was Nige's family Christmas tree when he was a boy. It is still in the original packaging. The end result of this retro tree. We're not big into Santa, but this little guy was Nige's when he was a boy. I'm just a bit sentimental, so these are nice to still have. An ornament Nige bought me when he visited London a few years ago . . . This is ...

Shailer Mailer: our american christmas day
http://shailer-mailer.blogspot.com/2014/12/our-american-christmas-day.html
Our american christmas day. It's funny that we're from New Zealand, where it's Summer at Christmas time, and yet, as a married couple, we've never been to the beach on Christmas Day and here we are back in California where it's Winter and we find ourselves at the beach on Christmas Day! In the evening we were invited to join Mark and Pam Petras, their two sons and their daughter in-law for dinner. We had a competition for who could decorate their gingerbread man the best.

Shailer Mailer: christmas lights
http://shailer-mailer.blogspot.com/2014/12/christmas-lights.html
Last year when we arrived in Murrieta, we'd read and heard about The Mission Inn in Riverside and how it is beautifully decorated for Christmas and so we made a point of visiting this Christmas. We walked around the outside perimeter of The Inn, and it was really pretty. The line to go look inside was CRAZY long, so we skipped that part. Maybe we'll come back next year, mid-week when it might be less busy, and take a look then. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Shailer Mailer: happy new year
http://shailer-mailer.blogspot.com/2015/01/happy-new-year.html
On New Year's Day, we drove South towards San Diego to check out La Jolla Cove (pronounced 'la hoy-ya). Several people at FBC had told us it was a really nice beach and area, and they were right! There were lots of others visiting La Jolla too! There are lots of quaint shops to look in but most were closed since it was New Year's Day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Shailer Mailer: let it snow!
http://shailer-mailer.blogspot.com/2014/12/let-it-snow.html
On Tuesday, 30 December the weather forecast on our Weather App was forecasting snow. (These temps are in Celecius.) I think the App was a bit confused because after showing the snowflakes here, it would quickly change back to raindrops. I was hopeful it might snow, but this is Southern California, so didn't really. Think it would happen. But.It.Did! This is what it looked like from our upstairs window at 6:30 am. The snow looking out to the left of our house. Snow-covered palm trees and wheelie bins!

Shailer Mailer: a little photo shoot
http://shailer-mailer.blogspot.com/2014/12/a-little-photo-shoot.html
A little photo shoot. Back at the end of August Nige was the guest speaker at Pathway Bible Church. S family retreat. The retreat was at Port Hueneme, near Oxnard, CA. Before our last lunch together, Jennifer, the pastor's wife very kindly slipped away with us for a quick photo shoot. I like these photos of us on the sand, but boy, were those little plants prickly on my legs! While we were posing for the camera and a big wave came up and totally wet the back of us!
