A great Christmas season was had by our little family. We had a church Christmas party I took the kiddies to by myself while Phil worked* we had Phils anesthesia Christmas party at the nice Hata's home and did some ball room dancing* we decorated our 9 foot real Christmas tree that we got for only$25* we made yummy treats* we did the 12 days of Christmas to a family in our neighborhood* we rode the bus through Coralville and looked at all the lights and had a visit from Santa on the bus* we sat on Santa's lap at the mall* we shopped*we made gifts-blankets and a calendar, this year* we wrapped- well I just wrapped* we decorated gingerbread houses with friends* we had a wonderful Christmas Eve party with friends- tons of food, acted out the nativity, sang carols, got pjs* our first Christmas morning at our own home since we have been married was great, the kids were magical, excitement was everywhere as was wrapping paper, we had a great breakfast with my tradition of lox and bagels and Phil's tradition of muffins, bacon and eggs* we had friends over for a ton of yummy food on Christmas night*
We missed seeing our Moms and Dads and Brothers and Sisters and Grandmas and Grandpas and Cousins and Nieces and Nephews and Friends that we usually get to see this time of year.
And I would like to share pictures but my computer died and it is the hard drive and yes I had pictures on it that weren't backed up- 2 years! So we are a little down here at the Brenchley house. We found out we have to send it somewhere for them to try and recover the data- does anyone have any info on a good place to send it? I feel weird just sending it to some random name that I have googled. All we have is our way old computer that doesn't have any photoshop stuff on it right now so I am keeping all my pictures on my way old camera-will this residency life ever end so we can spend some money on things we need (want)?!
So hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Any info on the computer stuff would be WONDERFUL!

That's terrible!! I've been thinking of backing up my pics online, so if anything happens to our computer, I have a source to recover my pics. You have given me reason to actually follow through with this.
So sorry to hear about your computer! So glad you had a wonderful holiday.
That's happened to us, too. Maddening! Matt was ON the computer when he saw it going bizerk...so he hurried and loaded just the photos on our little flash drive thing-a-ma-jig. We lost all our budget records & stuff, so that was really sad to me!
Every now & then, I ask him if he's backed up our recent stuff on that little stick. It's weird to think that something so little can hold it all, but it does.
We went to computer stores just around here to ask about recovery.
Oh no! I'm positive a professional can recover your data, I wish I knew someone in Iowa City that could help you! I do know a really good guy, he owns a shop right down the road here and has helped so many people in our neighborhood. In fact he's got our desktop right now b/c the day after Christmas, our computer crashed too. I wonder if we all got the same virus or something. Why don't you personally bring it over here preferably next week sometime when Mike and Mandy are in town would be perfect! :)
Oh I'm so sorry. Our computer died and I took it to a local place in North Carolina they did a great job and this is still while our Dell computer was under warranty, I'd try locally if you can.
My stomach just DROPPED!
Holy cow... didn't read this post just looking for pix and then when I actually took the time to read it... I am FLOORED!
Did you call MATT? He might know someone you could send it to!
oh no! I hope you get your pictures back. I'd be loosing sleep over that too. good luck.
