Hutchinsons in America

Paul and Caitriona arrived a few days before Xmas and this is their first time in North America.

They are here for the skiing and they are getting used to how we ski here in the north……..




Caitriona and I decided to use her Irish heritage and my ‘shackle dragger’ heritage to take over the kiddy castle……  Down with the English!!!!

The Irish Hobbit Queen of the Snowfort!!!!!

The Hutchinson’s were invited to the Sanborns (my adopted folks) for Xmas dinner.  Thanks again Al and Jarisse, and Sally.



The Hutchinson’s then had to endure New Years at 10,000 feet.  It started off just fine…….

But it didn’t end up so good…..  Kristina, Caitriona and Tom are outside the cop car, Paul and Galynn are inside the cop car.  Not the best finish to the evening although at the time we all thought it was funny.

The next day, after posting bail, everyone needed some food.  Greasy food.  I’m too much of a gentleman to make a joke about this picture……

After a feed I took the Hutch’s for a walk.  Caitriona with Santa’s sleigh and his posse……

Paul, typical Kiwi, you can imagine what he did to those poor reindeer – I should give him a cigar in this foto……
