You can see just how deep the water is getting....

Its been raining like mad around here....we have received more rain in the last week then we usually get in a whole season. Our side yard has some issues with flooding...we are working on it and trying to get the whole thing worked out. Until we can get to it, we have a water pump.

We had to sandbag by our doors to make sure that we arent getting water in the house

Our Sego Palm and Lawn wont need to be watered for another year!

Christmas Party 2010: HOT CHOCOLATE BAR EDITION

A few weeks back we hosted our annual Christmas Party..this year in effort to bring in some more fun we decided to host a Hot Chocolate Bar. We had everything you could think of to put in your cup of cocoa....including an "adults only" section that featured Bailey's and Peppermint Schnaps. We had a great time and are looking forward to next years party....I believe this will be the annual party...fun fun fun!!!

Jake and Megs came dressed for the occasion...

Sweet Dunham Girl!!!

What a busy time of year

Every year we tell ourselves that we are going to slow down during the Holiday season and every year..we dont! This year is no different..it has been busy, but busy in a good way. Ryan is super busy with Cofiroute (91 Expresslanes) and doing some side work for MobilePay USA. Its good, but also hard as he is at work a lot of the time. I know it is just for a season and that it will all slow down soon..I keep reminding myself of that. My business has picked up and it has been a lot of fun. I also left my job with Play Well TEKnologies (LEGO Engineering).. I loved my job, but it was good for me to leave.

Ryan is looking into MBA programs and wants to start soon. He is really looking into the EMBA program at USC! What fun!!!!! FIGHT ON! I have started looking on Grad school as well. I am going back to pursue my Masters in School Counseling. I want to be a High School Guidance Counselor. As well as school I am getting involved with Young Life Again! I cant wait to be a part of it again!!!!

Ryan and I had our first experience at a USC vs UCLA game the other night. It was at the RoseBowl (UCLA Home game). We bought our tickets online and had no idea where we would be sitting....we just saw that the seats were located on the USC side line. Little did we know that they were in the UCLA Season Ticket holders section. These were some of the rudest most obnoxious fans I have ever come in contact with. At one point we actually had to go get security because I was fearing for my safety. We were then relocated to another section...still in UCLA territory..but much more docile. In the end USC won (of course), but we learned a very valuable lesson......never go to a USC vs UCLA game......way to wild for me!

RH Fullerton Trunk or Treat

We have the honor of attedning RockHarbor Fullerton. Being part of a community that want to give back and watch people grow. For the past 8 months we have been meeting at the Wilshire Auditorium in Downtown Fullerton. It has been a good home to us...a place for us to establish who we are as a family. This coming weekend, we will be making the move to Hope International University Auditorium. This is an exciting season for us as we begin family ministries! Yeah!
As a way to thank the neighborhood that has "put up" with us for the past couple of months we hosted Trunk or Treat. A chance to say good bye and also a chance for us to say..."you have a family...come join us!" Below are just some of the many cars that participated! Thank you RH Fullerton.....we LOVE our FAMILY!
