Grandpa at Sushi Maru.
Neither of the dogs like grandpa very much. He likes to whomp them on the head and squish them. He named Sweet pea "Puchi Wuchi" and remembered her when we were leaving saying "there is Puchi Wuchi." I wish I had the mind to take pictures when Grandma was going through old picture albums. She seemed to really enjoy it, and remembered quite a bit. Next time I go up in San Jose I'm going to bring my scanner. There are some really beautiful black and white photographs in those albums... though oddly none of my mom as a baby. >:( 
Grandma playing with one of the remote control cars.
The day after Christmas it was 35 degrees outside and my mom had to scrape ice off the windshield! I'm sure this is nothing to those of you back east, but it's been cold by California standards. Grandpa keeps the house at a nice 90 degrees or so. I don't think I slept with a blanket the whole time I was at the house. My camera battery died on Christmas Eve, so I don't have any photos of Janet's house or ice skating downtown.. maybe my sister will fill in the those gaps with her pictures.
It was a VERY quiet christmas at the house without all of you. I think it's been the quietest christmas in three years or so. I hope you all had a great holiday!!!
P.S. - My sister got her picture taken at skyline on christmas eve, so hopefully those group photos will come soon. Those photo guys got a LOT of business from us. They created a similar set-up (with christmas trees instead of poinsettias) and had pictures taken and printed on site. I guess the idea caught on.
