Snow Day March 2008

Finally we got snow...and we loved every minute of it. Brinley was a great sport and lasted only a bit but Whitaker could not get enough. Of course playing in the front yard with snow or no snow is not complete unless Robert and Cathy are with us, so we got Robert out of his man cave and he joined us in the fun!

Uncle Robert

Isn't he going to make a great dad, after 2 years, finally we got Robert to read to Whitaker. See Robert it is not that hard to read to little people, that is only 2% of the parenting job ! HAH!!

Valentine's Day Party

Valentine's Day with 8 of Whitaker's Closes Friends.
We decorated cookies, played outside, ate lunch, gave them lots of candy and then after everyone left tried to get Whitaker to take a nap! HA!

Fourth Annual Rock Creek Christmas Party

Rock Creek is the street we live on and for the last four years we have been having a Christmas Party that involves food, white elephant gift and usually a late night game of Texas Hold'em. I think our boys are getting old because noone could stay up late anymore playing. Poor guys!!!! I love that we know our neighbors and enjoy most of them, at least the ones that show up for the party. There was a handful of people that I wish showed up but had company party conflicts, oh well next year!!

John and Greg cooking Group Shot

Me and Cathy - Point of reference this is my friend that took me to the hospital when Brinley was born and was apart of the whole thing. From riding in the car at 6 in the morning to telling her to be quiet as I scream to watching Brinley come into this world. Poor thing knows what natural child birth sounds likes and looks like and I am pretty sure she will make sure she gets her epidural! HAHA!!!

Partial Group eating at one table - Thoms opening up their White Elephant Gift

All I have to say is that I am so happy we did not end up with this gift because that means we have to keep up with it for a year and regift it - urrg!!! Yeah John is responsible for making sure it makes it back next year. John is the guy in black behind Greg opening the gift that has been around since year one!
