Happy Birthday Eric!

February 1, 2011 in Events, Family

Hi Eric!
I hope you are having a great birthday.  Are you doing anything special to celebrate?
We are in the midst of a big Nor’Easter – looking to dump well over a foot of snow on us right now.  The kids are planning on no school tomorrow, and I’m planning to work at home.  We have a cozy fire burning and we are remembering you on your birthday.  I was trying to remember if you wore boots to school on snowy days when you were in Jr High.  Trevor and Derek live in sneakers – no matter how deep the snow is.  Are all teen boys this way?
Well, regardless of the boots, you were a pretty cool older brother for not ratting us out when your little sisters were up to no good!

Happy Birthday, and say hello to Meg!
Love,
Holly

Piece o’ Cake!

January 30, 2011 in Family, hobbies

img_5611 I think Holly had a blast with her new hobby. She has spent the better part of the last 2 days creating her first decorated cake. This is just a practice cake and I’m sure we can find volunteers to consume it. The cake tastes awesome. It’s an almond flavored cake with lemon filling. The process is quite lengthy and involved. But Holly has some new tools to make it a “piece of cake”. Ah-hem… There are more pics on the Gallery page…

Holly trades up this week

January 18, 2011 in Events, Family, Health

Holly is bored with her splint and will be trading up for a hard cast in a day or 2. I think this is a good idea given Hollys “I can still do it” attitude. With a hard cast, chances of a protracted healing or re-injury are lessened. She could also use it in self defense or to ‘persuade’ the kids to help with this and that… Anyhow it will be an accessory she’ll be wearing for about 6 weeks…

Welcome Family

January 11, 2011 in blogging, Family

I know that many of you like using facebook to stay in touch. There are however, aspects of facebook many of us don’t care for. Although there is security built in (to facebook), it seems to be such an open, accessable space for anyone to “creep” (or evesdrop) on posted “discussions” or users profiles. This FAMILY social site has all the features of facebook in a closed, protected, secure environment of JUST family and (invited) friends. We can make it as inclusive or restricted as we would prefer. So, welcome to a safer place for socializing and sharing on-line with family.
