La fiesta

Cristian, Kristian & Katherine


In my mother's birthday poem posted at The Half Note, I wrote: She values...the way a piece of costume jewelry sparkles on her wrist. Do I know my mom, or what?


Sometimes all of Annie's goodness shines through. I was in awe of her tonight.


C & A


Tonight I met Bruce's new friend Jodi who I really like, and who is a New Yorker despite looking very Argentinian.



Jodi and Heike Jarick Hing.


I kept laughing at Kristian G. while he happily drank the homemade Mojitos made by David.


Mom and Alex Hing get deep.

New Year's Eve

After I got them off the bed...



... we stopped at Grandma's...



... then headed to 34th Street... (see Empire State Building in background)




... then to the "Party for Losers."


Although Annie and her friend are certainly not losers, what kind of loser would I be if I didn't bring them along?

I've been bad with the camera lately, but I did take pictures of the girls--here with Kristian and Paul, playing Wii on a brand new, wide-screen, high definition TV.

Hair for the holidays

December 29th

Sitting in a cafe before getting her hair cut, Annie asks if she can also get a small portion of it colored.

"Absolutely not!" I said. And just as I said it, I thought, why not?




January 2nd

After Christmas, Dave and Lou Ann went west. Here they are in the Grand Canyon.
