Inessential Stuff

So, I’m finally getting to the pictures from Christmas.  We went to Southern California to be with my folks (John and Ione), as well as my sister Laura, brother-in-law MacLeod, and two nephews, Akian and Conlan.  Conlan really likes me.  He thinks I’m cool.  I hope this lasts past age 1.

Marcus and Bonnie were also there, of course, so they will all make appearances in this here little gallery. Sites include the San Diego Zoo, DisneyLand, and SeaWorld, plus, of course, some Christmas Day presents.

And, to keep the narrative flowing, there are, at the bottom left of each image, tiny little captions.  Fun for everyone!

Here’s a little gallery of snapshot-y pictures of Marcus at Christmas, plus a few details from a car museum we visited during the holidays.

The cast: Marcus, Bonnie, Aunt Laura, Uncle MacLeod, Cousin Akian, Grandma and Grandpa Brunt, and me. The location: SoCal. The occasion: Christmas 2006.

Besides the traditional Christmas festivities, we got the kids to a plane museum, train museum, and kids museum. Then Marcus, Bonnie and I hit the road for a marathon 22.5 hour return drive, the highlight of which was stopping at Grass Lake between Weed and Klamath Falls, where Marcus ran like a devil and threw snowballs at his father.
