We had another amazing year in 2011, so much so that we couldn’t contain it all in a simple holiday card. So, here’s our look back at 2011…
In the spring we took a little road trip and dropped off a few guys who had some business to take care of.

Then we thought we’d catch a bit of TV from the White House situation room.
T
The successful mission gave us a reason to celebrate with Michelle.
W
We went to a lot of weddings this year. For Bill and Kate’s wedding we donned our best hats (no baseball cap for Eddie at this wedding!).
T
Though it was a great party, Kim and Kris’ marriage didn’t last long enough for them to even send us a ‘thank you’ note.
S
Since everyone else was doing it, we decided to enter a few of the Republican Presidential debates. That Ron Paul is such a prankster.
S
Sadly, we quickly became disillusioned with the whole political scene. We were shocked, SHOCKED, that our pal Blago is keeping up the tradition of so many former Illinois governors and heading to federally-subsidized housing for a few years.
T
To get over all this stress, Ed went out and partied with some of the boys. Just between us, it’s best not to invite Ashton and Arnold to the same party.
W
We celebrated with Andrew Luck and the rest of the Stanford football team as they finished their regular season with a win over Notre Dame. On to the Fiesta Bowl!
W
While we made many new friends this year, we also had to say good-bye to some old ones.

We hope you also had an amazing year. Wishing you peace, health and happiness in 2012.

What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store? What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?

I love it Jean. Clever. I think you meant how the” Gingrich stole Christmas ” Maybe not. Anyway, you outdid yourselves on this card. Peg Bayles
Jean, I quite enjoyed it. You are so creative. Thank you for sharing. Happy holidays!
Jean – have you seen my hat that I wore to Bill & Kate’s wedding? Newt Gingrich wants to borrow it for the next Republican debate. He says people will take him more seriously if he wears it.
Sorry we missed you at THE wedding!!!!! Hazel and Syd XXXX
Brilliant and so original LOL. Love the Blago one…. Pen K
I haven’t reached the “Ed and Jean” level of Angry Birds yet…..something to strive for! Very clever….love the Blago’s pic.

Jean I can not believe how creative you are. You guys are a hoot. I want to party with you two. You know all the right people 🙂
Have a great year end and see you in the spring.
