I discovered a few photos on my computer this evening, so I thought they were worth sharing.  First up a is a photo of the three cousins.  As you can see, they are enjoying themselves.

The power of the iPad ...

Next up is ORBJ wanting to show off one of her Christmas presents.

In fact, we nearly had a problem on Christmas morning when FABJ didn't get the same present.  "But I wanted a doll with matching pajamas, too!"  Fortunately, this was a short-lived concern (and the first we had heard of it).

It was a rude awakening after two weeks off to return to the world of school / alarm clocks / work.  But that' ok - a couple of days later the hardwood floors were installed in the living and dining room, so the house is nearly complete.  At this point, I hardly care about the remaining tasks (although it would be nice to have them complete).
