On December 19th, two years ago, Erin gave me the best gift a anyone could get, a wonderful daughter, a best friend for Curie, and a beautiful little girl. Happy Birthday Elia.
Erin’s Holiday Party 2015
There was a fantastic caricature artist by the name of Mike Jenkins who used to be a political cartoonist for a local paper for 20 years here at Erin’s holiday party. He also draws a comic on his daughter’s lunch bag every day and those bags have been shown in an exhibit. In any case, we have never had our caricatures done and it was a honor to have them drawn by him. His work has been praised by Bill Waterson himself. Curie was the last to be drawn and wouldn’t smile. 🙂

Holiday Card 2015
Erin said it might not be clear, but the pictures in black and white on either side of us are pictures one year apart to see how much they have changed. The pictures on the front of the card correspond to each month of the year, but I guess that was pretty obvious. OH, and Curie’s signature this year is her actual signature. 🙂
It’s that time again…
If you would like a 2015 Chen family card and have never received one in the past please PM (private message) me your address so we can add it to our list.
If you received your card last year and nothing has changed in your address, you need do nothing.
If you did not receive 2014’s card but thought you should have, we received many bounce backs last year of returned cards, so also PM us your address so we can add it to the list.
If you would like to be taken off of our list, or moved and would like to be taken off of our list, please let us know as well.
If you are not sure if you got one and would like one, please PM your address.
Thanksgiving 2015
Happy Anniversary 2015
Halloween 2015
This year we went trick-or-treating with Curie’s best friend Natalie and her parents Brian and Amber. Natalie went as a purple butterfly which people thought was a fairy costume. Curie went as Dr. Elsa Merida with a stethoscope and bow, but for trick-or-treating, she didn’t bring out the stethoscope or bow. Elia went as Curie, who went as Dr. Elsa Merida. 🙂
Holiday Card 2014
Rumor has it that our card has started hitting homes. We were late this year and the cards were not scheduled to ship until December 23rd. Albert’s mother in California got hers so it is likely they all went out. Can anyone tell us if they received theirs yet? Also if you normally get one but didn’t let us know since we will likely do a late card to some additions and we can add you.
