Christmas in Escondido






The extended Schreiner family got together this year at our house. Here are a couple of shots of prayer time before the Mexican feast. It was a beautiful day which made the back yard the perfect spot for all to dine. After dinner we went down to our church ball field and played frisbee, rode bikes and played ball with the kiddos. We later gathered for a retelling of the Chrismas story. Grandma Schreiner took over the time when she asked Darren what his goals were. (We never got a straight answer from Darren. So, Darren, what do you want to be when you grow up?) When the sun went down we fired up the outdoor fireplace for some story telling. Uncle Chris won the prize, which is not unusual. We missed those who are out of state but otherwise had just about all here. It was a pleasure having the Schreiner clan down but we are pleased that we are now off the hook for the next several years while the sibblings get to host the mob :-)
