Stephen's Eighth Birthday!

Okay, it's been pretty busy here of late, so I'm a little behind on blog posts. But absolutely not lost in the Christmas frenzy was Stephen's birthday. We had a little scare as our second snowstorm of the weekend came the morning of the birthday, and the party! We were on pins and needles waiting to see if the gymnastics facility would call us to cancel, but thankfully they did not. A great group of Stephen's friends (see picture, above left) braved the elements, and I'm confident they are all glad they did. I think you'll agree when you see the pictures.

Prepping For Santa

We put the finishing touches on our Christmas decorations last weekend. The tree is now up (above right). Cookies have been eaten. Now if only I could finish my shopping . . .

Anyway, here are a few pictures of the raising of the tree.

Safety First


We had a lovely fire on one of our very cold days last weekend. However, concerned that the conflagration might burn out of control, Matthew called out the Lego Fire Department.
