Staycation

We really wanted to get away somewhere warm but when that's not possible what could be better than a weekend at the Grand?

Kristen's Birthday Bashes

After having dinner at the Paris Bistro down the street Kristen and all came back to the house to have some cake and ice cream. Here are a few photos of Kristen's actual birthday and some other photos taken from the Grand America party.

Christmas 2009

I never quite understood as a child when adults complained about Christmas being so much work and being relieved when it was all over but I definitely understand now. December has been a fun but exhausting month! After bugging Ben for an entire week I finally got him to buy a Christmas tree for the living room. Liam and I took over the task of decorating the tree.

After having a family party at my house and going on the polar express we also were able to meet up with Sam's family and go to The Nutcracker.

I even had enough parties to attend that I purchased a bright red blouse.

Christmas morning finally came and Liam and Lila enjoyed receiving numerous presents.

To top it all off the day after Christmas Sam put on a beautiful party at the Grand America Hotel.

Phew, glad that's all over with.

Merry Christmas 2009

Smohnson Events

One of the great things about living in our new house is the great trees on our street. You can see that Liam is thoroughly enjoying the big pile of leaves that I raked up.

Here are a couple shots of Lila modeling some of her new fall outfits. Check out the elf shoes!

And last but not least the reason why I have to plan another family photos shoot later this week. Someone wasn't cooperating and it wasn't the kids.
