Welcome Family & Friends

2009  is off to a great start.  We have definitely slowed the pace with much less travel than 2008 but we're really enjoying ourselves.   The beginning of the year has been about skiing in Tahoe, soccer and swimming lessons.  In addition to spending a bunch of time in Tahoe this summer, we'll be visiting San Diego to run part of a marathon & visit the Barkers and Mammoth for the annual UCLA Camping trip.  Thomas at 4.5  is doing great, loves his preschool and has four best friends who are great. Rebecca turns 3 in June and will start St Matthias in August.   Chris and Christine remain happily employed at VMWare and Intuit respectively and are generally extremely grateful for their many blessings.  Wishing you health and happiness in 2009.

Thomas and Rebecca

Let's not kid ourselves. Despite the name of "chrisnchristine", 99% of this web site is about Thomas and Rebecca.  So here you have it.  Thomas is 4, attends St Matthias Preschool, loves music with a solid percussions (i.e. Hey Ladies from the Beasty Boys is a favorite). Rebecca turned 2 in June, attends our beloved home daycare with Maria and Miryam, make people laugh, dance, dress up and get dirty.   Both kids are doing great, keeping us on our toes. The photos shown here were taken in December 2008 in Los Gatos.
