Andew Joseph's Baptism

Our nephew Baby Drew was baptised on Saturday in Burlingame at St. Catherine's Catholic Church. He is a total cutie just like his sister Ashley! It was a great day to be with family and friends!

Gung Hay Fat Choy! and Princesses on Ice

We came into Fresno for the weekend for Disney Princesses on Ice and to try and catch the Chinese New Year parade. The ice skating was awesome! The girls had a blast and waved to the skaters and clapped and laughed the whole time! Evie was very stimulated by the flashing lights, maybe a little over stimulated! We then ventured to down town Fresno and caught the chinese dragon walking into a resturant and setting his dragon head on a chair. Oh well, maybe next year!

Beach Time in Monterey

The girls and I took a drive to Monterey to visit Auntie Lisa while John was on retreat for the day. We hung out at her place, played on the computer, watched some disney channel and then headed out to the beach before the rain set in! It was a beautiful day. The sky was grey with the sun shining though the clouds. The girls enjoyed tromping though the sand and Evie and I did a little beach combing. Luci slept the entire time in the stroller! She had a rough night, right dad?

Princess of the sand dune!

A Phelan Christmas

Let me give you a little history...Grandpa Pat "Catfish" Phelan comes from a "Small Irish Catholic Family" He has 12 brothers and sisters! Jess, Judy, Joan, Jim, Pat, Mike, John, Tom, Mary, Peggy, Bonnie, and Kathy. From those original bros and sisters came over 30 grandchildren and from them 12? great grandchildren. WOW! Every year we have a Christmas gift exchange. Santa comes every year and has shown up in a different way each time! This year he got a ride from Santa's helper on an awesome yellow Harly Davidson! He has come by stretch limo, dune buggy, ATV, Clydesdale horese drawn carriage, antique fire truck and I am sure more! The Phelan's are just about the raddest family alive! Enjoy!
