A Robfam Christmas Card!

So, it's a little late! Here in SaddleBrooke, we tried to help Manuel, our new son in law, polish up his Norwegian heritage! Though we skipped the lutefisk, the lefse was a huge success.














Another successful event over the holidays was the debut of the 4th annual family Greatest Hits CD. This year's CD, featuring a record 12 family members, achieved new heights. Not only was this our first 2 disk set, Paul and Susan actually kicked it up a notch by including music performed by Yo Yo Ma and The Opera Babes! Once again, Rebecca created the title and cover design, and she assisted Manuel in mixing and producing the CE.







According to tradition, the CD was released for the first time at Christmas dinner, though we were missing 4 members of our family. Nick and Amy, our newlyweds, spent their first Christmas together in Minnesota, while Mary and Paul managed a whirlwind cycle of selling their house, making an offer on a new house, moving, finishing up school and work, while packing for a month long medical roation in India!


We missed them all at Christmas, and waited eagerly for emails from India to hear about their adventures. The good news is....they managed the transition to a very unique culture, they worked hard in their medical fields and they returned happily and safely!

Now, we all wish our readers a Merry Christmas and a peaceful, healthful and happy 2008!
