Christmas business

Christmas is such a flurry of excitement-it seems there is never enough time to do all the good things we think of to do.  This ornament always reminds us how glad we are that Andrew grew out of his grumpy toddler stage.

Aaron won this fashionable sweater at his work's white elephant exchange.  We couldn't resist testing it's capacity.

We're thankful for friends that help us happily endure the days off.  Alex's mother passed away from an 11 year fight with cancer the day after Christmas so we're hoping for lots more boy bonding times.

Jane was my partner for all the Christmas goodie deliveries in the bitter cold-teens and twenties are too cold Virginia!!!  And this fella entertained us with his cool dude costume during the month.
