merry christmas, happy birthday, and happy new year too.

been a busy 10 days, but i think we've survived.

we traveled to pittsburgh to celebrate christmas with family. our first few days were spent with the pié family, where we not only celebrated christmas, but also had an early birthday party for jesse's 30th.

for the second half of our trip, we drove another 2+ hours to spend a few days with cydney's family in state college, pa. the kids enjoyed precious time spent with cousins, ryan and lindsey, who we see way too infrequently.



new year's eve always doubles as jesse's birthday party. this year was an extra special one, as he turned the big 3-0. jesse shares a birthday with our friend, lee nordine; so we spent the evening with the nordine family celebrating 30 years and 2010. candace and i attempted "copy-cat" Chipotle pork carnitas burritos, complete with the rice and beans, salsa and guacamole. a tasty dinner followed by an oh-so-delicious birthday flan.


as a side note, jesse has definitely turned 30- and is acting like it too. he spent his birthday, day off of work, rearranging the living room. oh boy.

i guess that's it for catching up the blog.
oh, and {belated} MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
