I figured I better blog one last time this year!


sorry for the late blogmanship but here goes!


There is our xmas tree with Totoro happily atop it!





xmas morning. we tried really hard to let granny gracie sleep in so we let the girls get up and have their stockings around 9am!

Here is baby Jason, click to enlarge and look at Madigan. I cannot believe how much she looks like my brother!


One of Maeve's favorite gifts!


Huge haul and tempers flaring!!



We had a wonderful xmas it was great! The girls seemed to have a really nice morning and so did we!



Christmas dinner was great! Thanks Auntie Lisa for the turkey bucks! We got a free organic turkey it was huge and there are still lots of leftovers! *groan* I/we are sick of turkey!!!


This is what we did this morning, New years Eve. So sad that it took me a week to get this blog up!

Totoro rules! I didn't even notice that. We tried to avoid the obvious princess theme, but it looks like we missed the mark completely.

G. Gracie rules too! Anyone who, after learning where a new aquaintance hails from, (california in this case) states, "We won't hold that against you" is top drawer in my book!

Happy New Year to out favorite family!

Just so you'll realize, that hockey player in black was me. I failed to stop the three on one... Poor Gino the goalie never had a chance.

Howdy doo!!
I am glad that I could comment once again before you changed your blog.. hee hee.. I shouldn't talk of course since I am totally not motivated to get a new pic on mine.. Like I told you, I think you look great in that photo by your brother/daughter and the tree.. Hey... We also have that same Cinderella polly pocket set.. It is still a favorite.. but I finally had to slit the dresses up the back because I got sooooo tired of putting them on for Haidyn.. the polly rubber dresses were/are too hard for her to get on all by herself.. It was actually her idea to cut them up the back so she could get them on without my help.. worked like a charm.. now I just have to be careful not to vacuum up all the little pieces.. actually I have to control the urge to just suck 'em so I no longer have to pick them up.. =) Happy New Year!!

Looking good Mussellams.
Man, I can hardly believe it's been four years since I've seen you folks in the flesh.

Happy New Year, and I hope it's a good one.
