Happy Holidays! Christmas was a grand event, as usual with my family. Aaron and I went home to my parent’s house on Christmas Eve and spent a couple of days visiting, gift giving, eating and celebrating with my whole family. In attendance were both my parents, me and Aaron, Amy and Joe, Peter and Maria (her first Christmas with us) and James (who spent much of the weekend on the phone, as his girlfriend Chrissy was back in CT working). Later in the evening we were joined by my Uncle Ken and Aunt Martha for a brief, but nice visit. I so enjoy, and appreciate, times when my whole family can be together. I am quite lucky to be related to and loved by such an incredible group of people.

The above photo is hopefully the last one we will take with my old digital camera, as Aaron got me a shiny (and tiny) new one for Christmas. The old Kodak has been a reliable teacher and tool, but the new camera kicks its ass. It’s charging up right now and I can’t wait to use it. Hope everyone had a great holiday!
