The HILBRICHter website

Ellen, Bryan, Megan & Kyle welcome you to our website.

Now that the last of the Christmas Decorations are put away and the hilbrichter Christmas letter is out (now there's a real shocker!), it's finally time to update the website.

We had some sad news, Clenn who many of our friends had the good fortune to meet, has left to go back to the Netherlands. We all miss him a lot and remind ourselves that he and his family must be very happy to be back together. Fortunately for his tennis game, he's been able to find a great group to play tennis with in the Netherlands (playing with most of the top 70 juniors in the Netherlands).

One of the things that has been keeping Megan busy has been her indoor soccer team.

The Hilbrich grandparents came over for the holidays. However, Chipper was disappointed with the food again.

The hilbrichters all made a trip down to Los Angeles for Christmas to visit with the Richter clan.

The Colorado branch of the Hilbrichs made it out of sunny Colorado and managed to arrive in time for our big rain right after Christmas. We all (with Sara as tour guide) were undaunted... OK, we all grudgingly went out and made some sight-seeing trips anyway.

We visited San Francisco (of course)...

...And Big Basin (were able to find a banana slug - Sara gave us a great lesson on these cute, slimy characters)...

...And Point Lobos (the weather finally cooperated here)
