More Christmas 2007

Sometimes he was naughty . . .


Sometimes he was nice . . .


but this is what greated him on Christmas morning!


He really enjoyed opening his gifts.


Especially his fireman outfit from Auntie Audrey and Uncle Adam!

December 2007

Some images from December . . . in no particular order!


Santa brought Griffin a LeapPad . . . I guess he should have brought him some pants!


It was a snowy month, but luckily we got some help with shoveling - why have kids at all if not for the free labor?


Griffin's cousin Genevieve turned 1!


We had lobsters for Christmas dinner. Griffin did not eat any, but he enjoyed making friends with them before they were cooked.


Mommy's digital camera should be safe now since Griffin got one for Christmas.


Technology has changed the way we read to our kids!


The best thing about snow!


A long list of requests . . .


Birthday cake for Genevieve.

And the two most important things - A police motorcycle and a firetruck!

Happy New Year!

Fall School Pictures

Just in time for the snow . . .

Christmas 2007

We finally got the formal Christmas pictures done for this year! Here you go!











Merry Christmas!

Thanksgiving and Snow

This is the smile that I am always thankful for!


Griffin and Autie Clara after he woke her up on Thanksgiving


We have our tree up . . .


But I am kind of hoping that Santa does not bring any more toys . . . at least not the kind that take up a lot of room!


We had our first snow this morning!

This is old . . . but I think I finally have figured out how to embed videos in my blog posts. This is Griffin being Jason Varitek, who in case you are not a Red Sox fan, hits the dirt off his cleats between every swing at the plate!

Thanksgiving . . . and some other shots

I developed a roll of old-fashoned film this week - here are some of the pictures that were on it!


Griffin as an alligator for his school Halloween parade

In Canada this past August for Uncle Joshua's wedding


Griffin and his cousin Teagan in Canada


Griffin supervising his cousins Teagan and Genevieve. Note the Boston Red Sox outfit paired with the Colorado Rockies baseball cap. Do you think he knew something that far in advance?

Halloween 2007 - Spiderman

Griffin was Spiderman this year for Halloween!






Trick or treating at Auntie Clara's




He really seemed to enjoy it!


even with the mask on . . .


I think it must have been the candy!

School Days 2007

Griffin's Class Picture for Preschool. In case you cannot tell, he is the one grinning at bottom left!

Not really at the beach . . . just a backdrop.

Nice smile!

Not too different from last year . . .

but growing up!

The Greatest Show on Earth

The tigers were beautiful,


The acrobats were amazing,


The elephants were talented,


The performers were great,



But the best part of the show . . .


was watching Griffin!


A new elephant!


A new hat!
