Mele Kalikimaka 2008!

We're heading down to Jess's parents in North Carolina today and might not have a chance to wish everyone Mele Kalikimaka later, so we're doing it today!

Also, we went to see The Legwarmers - an 80s tribute band - on Friday. This is us looking silly, as usual.Mele Kalikimaka!

November (I know we're behind!)

Grandpa and my parents came to visit us in the middle of the month. It was a lot of fun, but of course, it was a cloudy, cold and damp weekend. Since Grandpa's from northwestern Pennsylvania, it was still warmer than he's used to for this time of year, but when we stepped off the Metro, we had problems orienting ourselves because the fog was obscuring the Washington Monument!

(Jeff's not in the picture because he worked a half day and joined us a little later at the momunent).

We spent Thanksgiving with Jason, Kelly and Danielle this year. It's hard to believe this was Jeff's and my fifth Thanksgiving together, and they've all been in different places with different people (2002 with my parents in NC, 2003 in Mexico where we, needless to say, had trouble finding a turkey dinner, 2006 on the ship, and 2007 at our place with our Hawaii friends). Who knows where we'll be next year?

I think we were all too busy eating to get any pictures of Danielle with cranberry sauce in her hair - but suffice to say, it was pretty adorable.

Hopefully we'll get around to updating sooner rather than later, but if not, Happy Holidays!
