Carnival
I organized the Exiles Carnival on December 20.
Garage!
I finally cleaned up the garage to make it usable! We now have exercise equipment and Haley’s drum set out there.
Val’s Trips
Val made two trips in December. First she went to London, then she came back for a few days, and then went to see her folks in Italy.
Taylor Winter Concert
Haley played percussion in the Taylor Winter Concert on Wednesday, December 11.
George’s Passing
On Saturday, December 7, Linda called us to say George was in the hospital. We went to see him. He was stable, so we went to the ACLC event. Just after we got home, Linda called and said we should come. Shortly after midnight on the 8th, just before we got there, George died.
We spent Sunday with Linda, and went back on Monday. The funeral was on Tuesday, and Shiva Minyans on Wednesday and Thursday.
ACLC Auction
On Saturday, December 7, Val & I attended the Alameda County Leather Association’s Auction. People, including Val, auctioned off various goods and services as a benefit for ACLC.
Katelyn’s Birthday
Katelyn’s birthday celebration lasted two days. On her actual birthday, Friday, December 6, a bunch of us went to Sam’s Diner for dinner then went to see The Book of Mormon at the Orpheum in San Francisco. The next day Katelyn went to the movies with her friends to see Frozen in 3D.
Mills Winter Concert
On Wednesday, December 4, Katelyn played with the Jazz Band and Symphonic Band in the Mills Winter Concert.
Thanksgiving & Chanukah
We had about 15 people over for Thanksgiving. It was a sweet evening, including lighting Chanukah candles. The following day we kicked Chanukah into high gear with yummy latkes!

BE Chanukah Fair
Before Jennifer & Selena visited, Val and I went to the B’nei Emunah Chanukah Fair on November 24. The night before we’d taken the kids over there to help with setup. It was nice to give our time to help out, and Val and I spent a bit too much money. 🙂
