Christmas Traditions




I remember the nickname "lone ranger". This was my first nose job, I had another one a few years later. I don't think this accident slowed me down too much. I remember mom putting make-up on me for school pictures.

The Line-up

Here's the classic line-up on a family vacation.

Heidi, Stephen, Sarah, Cristin Henderson (cousin), Summer, Heather, Tamara, Scott, Shauna, Doug, Mom and Dad.

This is obviously a trip where we did some horseback riding, but I don't know where we are, and wether it was attached to a family reunion or just an independent vacation. I do remember being very sore afterwards, and hot in my long jeans.

I think I remember Scott "accidentally" falling behind and then making his horse run up fast to catch up. I also think I remember Cristin's horse doing all sorts of weird things, stopping, running, turning in circles. Anybody else have clearer memories?

Shaleen, were you on your mission then? Or just at college?

Stephen is a pretty darn cute cowboy, don't you think?
