Hi Everyone,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I got a little behind so as you may have suspected, I'm going to put a whole lot of pictures up.  Thanks to Anita for her contribution of these as well.  Between Paul & Anita's camera and our camera we took over 500 pictures this holiday season.  Thank goodness for digital cameras - we'd go broke developing the film... 

We had a great Christmas.  I took off the whole week before Christmas and we welcomed Paul and Anita, Jackie, Chris, and Mike throughout the week.  As you will see in the pictures, Hannah and Logan really enjoyed it too.

We also had Hannah baptized the day after Christmas with Aunt Jackie and Uncle Chris as her Godparents.  Hannah did great and it was really special having some of our family there with us.

We hope you all had a safe and wonderful Christmas.  God's Blessings to you for a Happy New Year!  Love, Rich, Lisa, Logan & Hannah

Hi Everyone,

I'm finding the more pictures we take, the longer it takes for me to post them!  I guess it seems overwhelming to go through so many pictures at one time.

First and Second week of January

Rich's parents came to visit us and rented a condo for the month.  Since this is their 3rd year down, I think we can officially call them snow birds.  Just for Sally and Willis, here are some pictures of their condo (click here).

Of special note on a couple of these pictures - apparently Logan has been watching his dadda out edging the lawn with his orange hearing protection.  He fashioned a croquet wicket to put on his head and took off mowing in the back yard.

Third week of January

This week my sister Karen came to visit for a week.  The kids really enjoyed their Aunt Karen.  We also exchanged Christmas gifts.  Hannah and Logan have been experiencing multiple Christmas'.  It's become hard to explain the phenomenon to them.  It is now February and Logan is still saying "Happy Holidays Everyone" before he goes to bed.

Fourth week of January

This was the last week my parents were in town.  Hannah and Logan got to spend some quality time with "Grandma and Cooba".
