Go, Flyers! Go!

Cade and I were given tickets to attend a Flyers game at the RBC Center. We had a blast, so here are some pictures to let you in on what we saw. Posted by Picasa

Winning Goal

Or, at least I'm pretty sure this is the one that got by him, on its way back out of the net. You can see another picture of it on the Megatron in the picture of Cade below. Posted by Picasa

Christmas 2005


Merry Christmas, everybody! I hope your Christmas was as wonderful as ours was, as we celebrated Christ's Incarnation. In spite of the floor fiasco, which left us with area rugs on ugly, exposed concrete for the next several weeks, we managed to have a warm little celebration. Here's my ugly little Christmas tree with the outrageous fuzzy-snowball lights. I think it all came together quite well--just going to show that two uglies do make a pretty picture. Posted by Picasa

Cade and I had to wait until Christmas Eve to put together Mara's big present, the train table and 100-piece train set we bought her. Of course, we had to play with it a bit, too. It was fun putting it together, knowing that we would surprise her with something special and unexpected the next day. Posted by Picasa

One last picture before hiding the train table for Christmas morning...Oh, wait a minute...It already was Christmas morning. I think we were in bed sometime around 2:00 A.M.  Posted by Picasa

Christmas morning, after Mara said, "Please just let me sleep for a little bit longer. I'll open presents later." Ha! I thought the kid was supposed to pry the parents away from slumber.  Posted by Picasa

Look at that bed head. Posted by Picasa

Are there more? Posted by Picasa

Mara and her stocking loot. -- After stockings, we went to church for a nice Christmas Liturgy. Then we came home to open the rest of the presents. Posted by Picasa
