dad: "Click"

Jill: "What's that noise?"

Happy Happy Birthday

Eric,

Happy Birthday, and welcome to fatherhood. We love you so much. While trying to think of the perfect gift for you, I stumbled across this . . .

Happy Birthday Bro.

Christmas Food

As Matt and I mixed traditions, we came out with some interesting things:


French Lace Bread with cherry filling - one of my family favorites.

Cereal from Santa - one of Matt's family traditions.

We also had oranges and candy in the stockings and nuts to crack on the table. Including pistachios, another Matt family favorite.

Jill was just shocked to be up so early in the morning. She didn't care what was for breakfast.

Christmas Day

Christmas Day at our house!

Jill was so excited. Santa brought her socks and spoons.

Jill's first Christmas present. (She got a sewing pattern for baby slippers.)

Don't be fooled by these next two: We were both very excited and surprised by our gifts.

Matt, a little less excited that this picture portrays. This is a cover for our outdoor grill that I finished in the nic'o time

Me much more excited!!!

Pictures

Because of our recent copmuter upgrade, I'm downloading and reorganizing all of our pictures. This is how I feel about that . . .

So, holiday updates are a little late, but, not as late as last year.

Whose Feet . . .

Great job everyone. Give yourselves a pat on the back if you knew that foot A belongs to Jill. Give yourselves an extra pat if you knew good looking foot B belongs to my good looking husband, and that foot C belongs to me. I've known my whole life that lime green was not my color; I don't know why I chose it as a background.


Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Our computer died right before Christmas. We just got a new one. I love it!

One of these things is not like the others

Let's play the foot game. After the usual hight and weight statictics, the first thing my mom asked was "Who's feet does she have?"
Funny questions, but totally my family's style.

So here we go:

A.

B.

C.

You can decide which sets of toes look the most alike, and which is the odd set out.
Bonus points if you can identify the owners of each foot . . . umm, that shouldn't be too hard.
