The 2012 Cuillier Family photos

Special thanks to our friend and photographer Galicia Virgen,

In other news....

BIG CONGRATS 

to Danny on his official promotion

February 5th, to 

Project Controls Manager

 for the Pueblo Chemical Weapons Depot!

It's been a huge adjustment for ALL of us, as Danny navigates managing people,

 rather than "just doing the work".  

He now manages over 30+ people!!

He's putting long hours in and STILL training people to do his OLD job, 

as he learns how to do his NEW job.

I think he's doing a fantastic job with all the new challenges that this new role has created.

Kendall and I have had to eat more than our fair share of dinners alone 

and spend more Fridays than not, without him (Even SATURDAYS!!!!).

We've survived so far by attending AF basketball games, and even a hockey game!

Thanks Holly & Casey for letting us tag along!

We've had a lot of fun hanging out with you!

Throw in a few playdates, and it hasn't been too bad.

We just look forward to the days when he's back to working his usual schedule!!

With this promotion, it extends our time here in CO =]

We should be here until at least next summer... 2014... or longer.

So that means, you have another year to come on down and visit us!!

Make your reservations now at the Cuillier Castle.

Some other stuff we are looking forward to....

We head back to ARIZONA for our 

3rd Annual Mariners Spring Training Trip!!!

Whoooo Hooooooooo!!

We are getting so excited for some family time, relaxin', baseball, and FUN!!!

Every year, it's a chance to see the Ms, get some early suntans, and see my Mom and Bud, along with my Bestie Michelle and Brian and their family who live in Avondale.

Accompanying us this year are Danny's Bestie Scott, and his wife Kerri and son Eli!!

This should only MAGNIFY the fun that is about to be had down there ;]

Can't wait!!!

DISNEYLAND!!

This'll be our first trip together as a family and I couldn't be more excited!!

Both our families took us as children in 1985 (or 86) so we haven't been there in awhile ;]

The Crazies
