Febuary 25, 2003 – James & Anthony – First big snow of the season!
Anthony bundled in his brother’s clothes and ready to play. (James was inside, sick with a 104 fever)
Sorry sweetie, but for some reason, I don’t think that’s going to work.
My first snowman built with my mommy!

January – Febuary 2003 – James & Anthony – Best Buds
The camera didn’t quite capture it…but they fell asleep arm-in-arm. I have so many pictures of my boys when they’re asleep. I thinks it’s because that’s when they are the most angel-like.
Watching morning cartoons together. James put his arm around Anthony. What was amazing was that Anthony didn’t push the arm off for some time!
“Anthony…I am your brother…”
Playing light-sabers…They lose their innocence so much earlier when they have an older sibling. Anthony even makes the light-saber sounds!
After a hard morning of play, my boys crashed on the couch!

“Hey! Who are you calling a runt?!”
Look Ma! No hands!
Wooaaahhhh! Preparing to do the “crane” kick as seen on Karate Kid
I LOVE books too!
Blast off!

January 2003 -LaReita, David & Julie’s Cruise
Cruise to Catalina Island and Ensenada Mexico
January 13-16, 2003

Dave and LaReita in Los Angeles Port
January 14, 2003
On our way to Catalina! (Meika Boogert and Julie Berky) Hoped we could snorkle, but ended up being too cold (water was 56 degrees)
We took a boat tour instead along the coast line. It got REALLY cold.
A pair of bald eagles live on Catalina.
Our boat tour took us out in deeper waters and we found a pod of dolphins that were playing with the boat. BEAUTIFUL!
Dave Relaxing. The one thing he really wanted to do on this trip. In the background you can see the “Holly House”.
Catalina Island January 14, 2003
On this tiny island (only 1 acre developed) everyone gets around in golf carts! I loved it! Hence my mania in taking so many pictures of golf carts!
Ensenada, Mexico
January 15, 2003
Ensenada is famous for having the world’s largest blowhole. (a cave at the coast that fills with water and pressure, then blows to release.) It wasn’t particularly powerful today.
Beautiful people in front of the beautiful ocean.
David Berky, LaReita Berky, Meika Boogert, Julles Berky
Walking through the open-air market we got a cute $10 kid’s guitar, a Superman cape, some silver jewelry. But we were not tempted with buying a “Velvet Joseph Smith”!
A visit to Grandpa Smith’s

Anthony loves pretzles.
What a mess! The latest in ear accessory fashion.
Extreme close-up. Anthony loves to use his pointer.
Loving life.
My, what beautiful blue eyes you have.

July 2002 – Anthony Sleeping & the 4th of July
Anthony loved swimming on the 4th of July.
All tuckered out after a good swim.
How cute!
Just before stepping on that hot cinder & getting a good blister (now a scar) on his foot.
“Don’t bother me, I’m sleeping.”
Anthony sleeps just like his mama did when she was a baby. No doubt he knows he’s loved.

July 2002 – Anthony Standing
Anthony’s going to be my musician. He loves to be near or touching the cello. He even sings while I play.
Stowaways!
Peekaboo. I love to stand!
On my way. Mom and dad need to put up the stair gates.
