Shane's Back......

on the court playing
I only post pictures of the shots that go in


 Shane loves being in the air




 Check out Shane's face, seconds after he attempted his 1st dunk in a game.  He came up short but everyone was screaming and smiling afterwards!  Coach even put him back in the game at the very end and said, "Go get a dunk"

Newport Beach

Sunday night at 8:30pm Jesse walked into our room with a suitcase and said we are leaving in the morning and will be gone for 24 hours!  I didn't want to be disobedient so I packed my stuff!
He wouldn't tell me where we were going but we ended up at a Hyatt in Newport Beach.  Warning, lots of selfies and happy faces
Morning walk around the bay, it was gorgeous.  
 bike ride through the estuaries 
We rode our bikes to Balboa Island for lunch and people watched

 then rode to the Sherman Library and Gardens

 Life-size gingerbread house
 relaxed poolside before dinner

 One of the best dinners,  CDM
We loved living in the bubble for 24 hours celebrating our Anniversary a little late.  Jesse couldn't have planned it more perfectly

Shane-O

Shane was hit hard with the flu for over a week.  Once he started to feel better we opened up all windows and doors and told him to get out!
 Jesse got me this puzzle for Xmas and it was impossible and frustrating.  We completed the dreadful puzzle and never gave up, who wants it?
 Vitamin D therapy

 Happy New Year!

Goes with Papu's décor, perfectly

Jesse and Hailey on 3rd Street Promenade, she's in heaven shopping!
Papu had games for us to play through-out the week and the winner would get a prize.  Nat finally won, and got these glasses. (don't ask)  Luke said she looked like a Hot Librarian! - That pretty much sums up our week!

Christmas Day

Christmas morning.  Shane wasn't feeling great but was able to put on a great face
Jesse got a cupping set
We fooled Shane badly with the Xmas Eve gift he opened.  It was a video game, for a game system he doesn't own.  He thought his mom was an idiot for buying a game he couldn't play!  
Not an Idiot!

Luke and Pete Xmas morning, not sure which party invitation they got
White Elephant gift exchange.  Shane made these and Papu ended up with them on the last trade
Hub got toilet golf and nailed it
Cinderella had a xmas gift under the tree.  We opened the gift and it was a pair of shoes so we passed it around to see who it fit.  Surprise!
 D'Alessandros
 Jesse swears this helped his neck
 so addicting
 The ping pong champion!  I even beat Pete who is the 2nd best in his fraternity, he wasn't happy
