MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

I know it's a bit late, but I still wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! This year was the year we spent it with my side of the Family, so we headed up to my sister's house in New Hampshire to start things off. We had so much fun with my nephew Cameron and my niece Lexi, that we didn't want to leave! Cameron is getting so verbal, it just cracks me up, and Lexi is starting to smile, and giggle. It really just melts our hearts! I didn't get too many pictures there, because I never seemed to have my Camera when fun things were happening (all of the time).. So I will have to take a couple of my sister's from her blog... We also spent some time in Maine with friends and family, and really had a great time. Oh, and of course we went to Marden's. What is a trip to Maine with no Marden's?? On our trip back to New Hampshire it was a bit dicey.. We had to go 45 MPH from Waterville, to the Maine border! Those of you who know Maine, know that is a killer! But the roads were really bad, and they had that sign lit up blinking Max Speed 45 MPH. Or it was almost screaming at me, you'll never get out of Maine! HAHAHA! (one of those evil laughs..) One of my most favorite parts of the trip was seeing Lexi get her baby blessing at church. She looked soo precious, and we are just so grateful to have her here with us! I have included some of the pictures I have from our trip, as well as a couple of pictures from when Josh and Shelby stopped by for a visit. It was great seeing them, and meeting our cute little niece Ada. She really is adorable! The pictures from that didn't come out to great, since there was too much light in the background, but here's what we got anyway...

Ada not sure what's going on...why is someone pointing a phone at me?

Ada opening a gift we got her, she loved the shiny silver ribbon

Jeff holding Lexi, he LOVED holding the baby

Lexi and I she was giving me hugs, she was such a snuggle bug!

Lexi and I again...

Not sure what can be said, I think the picture speaks for itself....

This was the sunset on the trip back to PA, it was really pretty so we decided to get a picture

Christmas is my absolute favorite holiday of the year, it's when we get to spend time with loved ones. It is always a great time for me to be grateful for everything I have, and my friends and family. The best of wishes to you and yours in 2009!

Our Annual Trip to Hershey Park

Jeff and I make a trip to Hershey Park every year at Christmas time, to enjoy Candy Lane with all of the lights, the smell of fresh Kettle Corn, and rich Cocoa in the air! Here are some pictures from our trip, this year we met up with some friends of ours, and their two little ones, it was really fun to see them on the rides, however it was REALLY COLD!

The Roller"cow"ster was all dressed up..

Santa's Reindeer!

We did see Rudolph, however since he wasn't flying anywhere his nose was not glowing red...

We always stay by the "Kissmas" tree for a bit, since that's where Jeff proposed...

Jeff and I..we actually stayed pretty warm this year... We took this picture under this really bright light, it almost looks like it's during the day, however it was 9:30 PM.

I must say, I can't wait until next year!!

Getting back in the routine...

Well Hello, Hello... It sure has been a while, but we've had lots of things going on. First things first, Jeff was in a car accident, he is fine (the great part), however is the car was not (the other great part, Whooops.. alright so I didn't like the car) :) The not so good part about it is, that we had to rearrange schedules so that we could car pool, and we are so lucky to have Jeff's Parents who are just completely awesome to let us borrow their car for a day or two. I have included a couple pictures as to what his car looked like the night we went to clean it out...

So, with that being said, the car was totaled out, and we had to go on the hunt for a new car. I have included a couple pictures of our new car as well....

Now it's just a matter of getting everything finalized with the old car...so good bye Ford Focus, hello 2008 Chrysler Sebring Limited!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I know it seems like Thanksgiving is sooo yesterday, however I haven't had a chance to blog with everything we've got going on... Here are a couple pictures we took at Thanksgiving. It was great to spend time with family, and of course miss those who weren't with us!
