Happy Holidays!!

OK, long, long overdue post. I said I'd be better about posting and I'm gonna try! :)

Here are some pics from the house at Christmas time:


Stockings over the library fireplace:


Fireplace in the media room:


The tree!


Kristin, Sameer, and Mittens in front of the tree:


Christmas lights on the house. All those hours up on the ladder were worth it!



We are flying out to Atlanta tomorrow for a week with my cousin and a ton of family - she's having a mini-family reunion and it should be a blast!
We hope you have a wonderful holiday season and a happy and healthy new year! Talk to you soon!

Fall/winter wrap-up...

Just a few pictures here to round up the fall around here...


Kristin made me this awesome peanut butter and chocolate cake for my birthday... OMG SOOO GOOD! Nom nom nom! If you would like to make one, go here.



Karl Nicholas (one of the docs in my group) invited Kristin and I out to this crab festival extravaganza dinner at the local Portugese Hall. All-you-can-eat shrimp, crab, garlic bread, and wine. What more could you ask for??






Whenever we're at the pet store, we see plenty of clothes for goggies, but never anything for the kitteh... until we found this Christmas sweater for Mittens!! Muahahahaha!






I believe this is what she was thinking...
or maybe this.

anyway, that's what we've been up to in our spare time!
