Christmas 2009
We had a wonderful Christmas this year with all of our family. Kaylene got her very first bicycle from Santa and was super excited. This was our first year at Sherry's home for Christmas. It was also special because Molly had arrived early and we all got to get our fair share of snuggles with this cute little tot! Enjoy the pictures.

Christmas Party with Kaylene's Friends
Kaylene was invited to a special Christmas party at one of her friends house. They had lunch with lots of yummy things to eat and even cupcakes for desert, which Kaylene got all over her face (it was hilarious, you'll see). They also had a special visitor drop by: Santa Claus! Kaylene talks about Santa Claus all the time, but everytime sees him, she's not exactly sure what to think. Fortunately no
Christmas Tree Hunting
One of the main reasons for our trip back to California was to participate in a big Wharff family tradition that has taken place at the "Black Road" tree farm for many years: Christmas Tree Hunting! This year was particularly cold, but we all had a lot of fun searching for trees. Since we still live in WA, we didn't get a tree, but Kaylene still ran everywhere and pointing at lots of "Christmas Trees".
Christmas 2008
As usual Christmas was chaotic, yet wonderful (how that makes sense, I don't know). We got a ton of gifts, especially Kaylene. It's a good thing we packed lightly and hadn't reached our max number of items for the flight back. I guess the biggest highlights were, Tony got Nancy a under water scubba scooter (not sure what there called) and she was shocked! Also, Nancy got Sherry's kids special backstage
Christmas 2007
Christmas this year was quite enjoyable, mainly just because I got to be with family. We got to visit with both sides of the family. Besides enjoying all the Christmas lights as talked about in my previous post, here are a couple highlights this year. Since we all stayed local this year, it was pretty easy to see everyone. Tony tricked just about everyone into thinking that he had to work on Christmas
Christmas Lights 2007
I was glad that this year we spent some time looking at lights and visiting fun Christmas themed places. It brought back memories of Christmas in the Park in San Jose. One the streets we visited had was a court of houses and every single house was decorated to the extreme, but what really made this court special was a 10 foot long train that rode upon tracks above (YES above) each and every houses
Noah Christmas Party 2007
We all had a wonderful time this year at the Noah Christmas party. The white elephant game was really fun. If you not familiar with the white elephant game here's a simple run down. Everyone starts by choosing a number, then everyone chooses a gift in the order of their number. When it's your turn you can choose a gift OR steal a gift someone has already chosen. A gift can only be stolen twice, at
Christmas 2006
Jen and I were fortunate enough to spend Christmas 2006 with our families, mainly because we needed to attend the Noah Christmas Party in San Jose. After the company party, we went to Nancy's house for family portraits (read the funny and wacky blog about it here).We left Nancy's house on Christmas Eve and arrived to the cabin at 1:30 pm. Maminou and Papa (Jen's parents) were happy to see us, but
Merry Christmas to Me!
Time for some serious (and fun) picture taking. Let's just say that I got this camera for a smokin deal, like 500 bucks off and I got a company bonus this year that covered the price of the camera!Ever since we had to give back the PowerShot G5 to the school Jen use to teach at, I had been missing all the advance features of that camera and since this is a shutter digital camera (dSLR), I can take
Noah Christmas Party 2006
This year's company Christmas party was awesome (they're always awesome). This year it was in San Jose at the Silver Creek Country Club. The party kicked off with unlimited drinks and appetizers. All the food was good throughout the evening, however I must say that the appetizers were the best, coconut crusted shrimp and mini lamb chops!This was the first year that EVERY Noah employee was able to
