Conquering Warrior

I have conquered the mighty tree, and now I will carry it home. It is my prize.

(Yes, Ray succeeded in overcoming the Baumgartner procrastination and we have our tree up and decorated - done before December. Amazing.)

Obligatory Sunday Purple

Go Vikings!
(The cheering squad is separated this week...hope it doesn't affect the the team's play.)

Thanksgiving 2009

Eamon had a lot of fun at my parents' for Thanksgiving. He found out about stairs in the safest way possible - in a house with, well, one stair. (Ray continues to find our insistence on using the terms "upstairs" and "downstairs" very odd.)
He got to watch little balls spin around, always a favorite pasttime.
And maybe he was giving Ray tips...
Of course, there was food. So very much food, and so very good.
