Great Photographer Coming To Sacramento

Dear FAMILIA-

A friend of ours is coming to Sacramento to take pictures for companies in Sacramento. He was working for a large company who has business all around the west coast. He is closing down his work with them and starting his own here in Portland. He is going to be staying at my parents from Feb 1-3 and has some open time, to take family pictures for anyone, in between his work. I've attached his brochure so you can see his work. Mario and I had our family pictures done by him and we love them. Tucker is very talented. If you are interested please call Tucker Beesley at 503-484-7237.

Thanks,
Love Mario and Noelle Chavarin

Dear Family,

So far I have received only one persons ideas for the reunion t-shirts. Some have given me ideas by word but I have since forgotten them. If you remember them please email me your ideas. I have decided that the END OF JAN. will be the deadline for the t-shirt contest. Then I will meet with the heads of the Family (De, Rona, Jacque, Terry, Lynn and Janell) and show the designs to them. They will decide who wins.
