A Reunion

Our friend Ann, who introduced the two of us and whom we hadn't seen in eight years, was in town from California with her boyfriend and braved the weather to come out for a visit this afternoon! Here is the three of us with Charlie and Amelia, who have her to thank for their existance. Thanks for the visit Ann!

Christmas Morning

We had a great Christmas morning! Charlie must have been a super duper good boy this year because he hauled in some good stuff -- a wii with lots of games, action figures, stuffed animals, movies, music, books and games as well as some new games for his DS and a whole lot of candy in his stocking! Amelia got a stylin' new coat courtesy of Grammy Bess and Grampy Paxton as well as some stuffed animals and books. She was supposed to get a baby doll too but Santa must have subcontrated that delivery out to an elf with a slow mule because last we checked it is still in California... Here are some pics of Amelia's first Christmas and Charlie showing off some of his loot! Merry Christmas!!

Holiday Cupcakes

Charlie's holiday party for school is tomorrow. Not only does he get to go to school in his pajamas and have a visit from Santa, but he gets to bring in these cool snowman cupcakes to share with his class. Lucky kid!

Christmas Party

We had a great time at Mike's company Christmas party which was on an Odyssey cruise in Boston Harbor Saturday night. To top it off Sue stayed over with the kids so we were able to rent a hotel room Saturday night for our first child free night together since the kids were born. Thanks a million Sue!

Holiday Pictures

We had my friend Heather's husband Matt photograph the kids for their holiday pictures in exchange for Mexican food. Kudos to Matt for doing such a good job with unruly subjects! Click here to view the proofs.
