As Christmas Approaches
We purchased a tree on Black Friday and Season did a great job decorating it; it looks awesome:
It’s drooping a bit because… well.. it’s dying. I was worried about a week ago whether or not it would make it to Christmas but I think at this point we’re in the clear.
We went to the community center this evening and saw Santa Claus. I’d love to post a cute...

Happy Thanksgiving
We had a great Thanksgiving! We were unable to go back East to spend time with our families but, fortunately, Aaron has a good friend who lives in Seattle and we were able to spend time with him and some of his friends. Dinner wasn’t until four so we kept ourselves busy: I made a pecan pie; Aaron baked two delicious loaves of bread; and then we made green bean casserole (from scratch) to...

To Seattle
We made it to Seattle in one piece! The packing and move out was pretty straightforward. Our place was a complete wreck for a few days:
and then the moving people came and everything just disappeared:
We stayed in Reading at my mom’s house for a few days and saw the sights:
and we spent some time with some family before our big move:
Saturday, October 3rd was the big...

To Vermilion And Back
We recently traveled to Vermilion, Ohio to visit Season’s grandparents. It takes about 8 hours to get there from Philadelphia and which made this Claire’s longest trip. Needless to say, we were a bit concerned about how she’d do.
We’re happy to say that CLaire is a great traveler. She slept for about 4 hours. For most of the ride, Claire looked something like this:
