Christmas 2007

We had a nice quiet Christmas this year. We spent Christmas Eve with friends and just relaxed at home Christmas Day. We put a banana in Ethan's stocking (one of his favorite foods) and he rushed right over to it and started to gobble it skin and all. When we pulled out his first box to open he climbed on top of it and jumped up and down. I think he had more fun jumping on the boxes than playing with the toys inside. It was a fairly warm day so we took him to play at the park that afternoon. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and a happy New Year!

O' Christmas Tree

So I've been really bad about updating this lately, but I have a good excuse. I'm finally launching the birth announcements business I started back in March! Check it out, http://www.thebluebuggy.com/.

And we just got back from Virginia. The second week of Dec. we went to Charlottesville, VA for Anthony's tax course. We stayed at the same Marriott we lived in for 4 months during his JAG training. It was weird to think just a year ago we were living there. We went to Montpelier again, it's so beautiful. We also made a trip to DC and saw the usual- National Cathedral, the Mall, Capitol, etc. and also went to the DC Temple to see the lights and watch a concert. It was fun to be back. The weather was awesome, in the 70's almost the entire time. I love Virginia and wouldn't mind living there again some day.

The day after Thanksgiving we went and cut down a Christmas tree from a farm a few miles away. It was so fun spending hours wandering through the woods looking for the perfect tree. I actually found the tree I wanted within about 30 seconds, but had to scour the rest of the woods just to make sure. Ethan had so much fun running around touching every tree and rolling down the hills.
