Second Tooth...Gone!

We hope 2009 has gotten off to a great start for you! As you can see, Melia lost another tooth. Her 2nd one on Friday, January 9 to be exact. She was so excited! Just like her first tooth, her dad was there to witness the historical event & well...I wasn't. Yea, a little jealous for the first one, but I'm getting better. 
This weekend, I finally took down the Xmas decorations. Phew! Feels so good to get that over with. Watched some football...Yea Eagles! & Yea Steelers! I'm so sad that the season is coming to an end so quickly. What will I do til August?!!!

Happy New Year 2009!


Happy New Year to everyone! It's crazy to think how fast 2008 flew by, but here we are...2009! Melia & I spent Xmas Eve with Tutu & Granny & then flew to Indiana on Xmas morning to visit my brother Ryan & his family. We spent 8 days there & had a great time! We got to see Noa play basketball & indoor soccer, attend Sunday mass at the church where Ryan & Heather were married, went ice skating, shopped a lot, cooked a lot, ATE a lot, drank some, spend New Year's Eve with the elderly, see snow fall (finally), see "Bedtime Stories," spend time on FaceBook, go to Notre Dame, watch "The Game Plan" & "Big Fat Liar" over & over & over & over & over, visit Ryan at the fire station he was working at, but best of all, we got to spend some serious quality time together! I really miss my brother & it always takes everything in me to NOT cry when we say our goodbye's. What gives me peace of mind is that he really seems happier than he's ever been. I'm so proud of he & Heather & the home that they've provided for their family. Love you guys & thanks for such a great time! Hope to see you guys in Hawai'i!
