TERI & STEVE WILL VISIT PEORIA FOR THANKSGIVING!

Hi -

Well, breaking tradition this year, Teri and Steve will venture to Peoria for Thanksgiving. After all, what better place to be to see leaves changing and at least a little variance in the temperature! (and I'll bet the air is much cleaner!)

So, Steve and I will take off out of Las Vegas (I believe around 5:00 p.m.) with a direct flight into Peoria on Saturday. We're very excited to see anyone and everyone we can see while we have our visit.

We want to wish all a very Happy Thanksgiving and remind you to be Thankful for the blessings we all have. Actually, whenever life throws us a little curve, we do what Bing Crosby told us to do - from the movie "White Christmas" - - We count our blessings. We are so very lucky to have such a wonderful family, friends and life in general. So . . (not lecturing), but be Thankful for what you see around you and treasure it daily.

Happy Thanksgiving to those we will not be with - - and to those we will be with - - and to those poor people who will be dealing with our challenging customers at work. Love to All.

***LATE ADDED NOTE: CONGRATS TO STEPHANIE & DAVID FOR THEIR NEW BABY GIRL ZALIE!***

Clippers Chalk Talk - Wedding Pictures in!

Hi all -

The wedding pictures are in! To view, you can go to: http://www.jasonherring.com/clients/brooke%26matt/http://www.jasonherring.com/clients/brooke%26matt/

They turned out fantastic!

Also, on Sunday we got to attend a Clippers Chalk talk where we get a private room and enjoyed a breakfast and one of the coaches came in to answer questions and talk about the game plan of the day. Rey Nelson Printing had printed posters for the Clippers and this was in exchange for the print job. Several people from work as well as Sandy, Tom, Dad, Bobbi (his friend), Matt & Brooke were present. We got to go on the Staples floor and have a free-throw shooting contest. I have 3 videos of that, thanks to Tom taking video. Several "air balls", (very deceiving when you have a see- through backboard and when you're shooting in a place the size of Staples Center). I hit the rim, but no go. Matt hit the rim, but no go. Sandy swished her first shot, but there were two others that also made the basket (this was out of 22 people, therefore, don't harass Steve too much on his air ball - - there were many!) Traci's brother in law on the 2nd round ended up winning an autographed ball signed by the entire Clipper team. We had a great time. I'll be posting pictures later of the gathering.

That's it for now! Talk to you all later.
