The Cooleys


Because we are living in the fifth wheel and don’t have any room, I’m thinking a good thing to get us would be a gift certificate to a restaurant in Half Moon Bay, California. That will help us explore our new town. 

Will contact you with our PO Box as soon as we get it!

Love to everyone, ghia


"Half Moon Bay is a small city on the California coast, south of San Francisco. A string of beaches along the bay includes Half Moon Bay State Beach. The Coastside Trail leads north to Pillar Point, near the huge waves of the Mavericks surf spot. Nearby, Montara Mountain rises in the protected Rancho Corral de Tierra area. The Purisima Creek Redwoods Preserve is on the slopes of the Santa Cruz Mountains."

Okay, I think we should plan a family gathering in Half Moon Bay sometime while Kirk and Ghia are there!

The Anglins

Ok, so I am trying not to be an overboard USNA mom, but a few things Navy would be nice to have. I am kind of thinking of collecting some cool anchor kind of things or other nauticals.

Here is a link to one thing I'd love to have: https://www.etsy.com/listing/516396750/rolling-pin-small-embossing-rolling-pin

 


Wayne loves to read. A good historical fiction other book might be good. If I come up with any suggestions of a book I will post it.

Christmas Exchange 2017




2017 Christmas Exchange

So every year we've had an addition or two, such as first year mom and dad and years following some of our children, but this year we are down to just the four of us. Riley will be spending Christmas in American Samoa and asks to beg out for this year. Carver said he wouldn't mind giving a present, but isn't sure what he would like to receive. I gave him some ideas, but he said for this year he would pass. Steve's adult boys participate when Shelly does all the work........ so we're letting Shelly off the hook! :) Connor is so busy trying to keep his head above water I didn't even ask him. And there we are.

Anyway, we have all done each other at least once in the rotations and so here we go again. :)

Ghia and Kirk gives to Christie and Wayne
Jason and Family gives to Ghia and Kirk
Steve and Family gives to Jason and Family
Christie and Wayne gives to Steve and Family



Same as always - keep the budget between $35 and $45
