We're still here!

I think that my goal for the new year will be to start posting here each week. We shall see.

To catch up: Bug dressed as Hermione again this Halloween. She won a costume contest at the local record store. $100!

Bug & I spent the weekend after Thanksgiving in our hometown. We stayed at a hotel downtown (she was bummed that we didn't get the "haunted room"). We had a blast at the Holiday Stroll. It was a bit chilly, but we were dressed for it. A friend of mine took this photo of me & Bug. To see more great pics of the night, check out her blog: http://russmanspot.blogspot.com/2013/11/holiday-stroll.html

We're hoping to have Bug's dad join us next year. The big surprise of the night was seeing "Fiddler Mary". Bug saw/heard her play once a month for most of the first 5 years of her life. Her first sentence was "I see Mary." 

Bug was very excited to pet a penguin.
