Things are going well here. We survived the holidays here in Vermont with the friends and family that were around. We stayed here Christmas eve and had spaghetti and meatballs with Otho, which was really nice. Then the three of us spent our first Christmas morning together opening gifts, playing around, having breakfast. We had a very relaxing morning. Acer seemed to have the most fun with Allan's new toothbrush... Then we headed off with Otho to Harry and Karen's for lunch. We had a lot of fun with "Papa Ho" and "Granny Karen". Then back to our house for Christmas dinner with Otho, Loren, Kristen, Amy, Pete, and Paul. Tortiere (the best meat pie in the world), roasted root veggies, sweet potatoes, and lemon cake!!!! New Year's was also fun. We packed up and drove down to Bo's for the night. We braved the cold and saw in the new year around a bonfire with fireworks, friends, and family. We got to see David and meet his wife Jamie and son Jaden. We also got to see Uncle Dave and Aunt Patty AND Beth and Griffin which was a treat! A typical crazy Boreanaz celebration...
So, as for life after the holidays... Unfortunately we are all recovering from a pretty nasty cold/flu thingy. Acer is such a trooper when he gets sick! Acer is doing a "regular" crawl now, which is much faster and a lot easier for him. We just got a gate so he cruises around and explores the upstairs. He got a few wonderful gifts for Christmas as you can see in the slideshow to your right (a block set with it's own cart, a swing, and many others...), but his favorite new activity is getting pulled around in the laundry basket!
Well, it's time for bed here. We hope you are all well and look forward to hearing from you soon!
Mish, Al, and Acer
