Happy Election Day!

Today is Election Day in Maryland! Katherine lobbied for her candidate!




















Side note: This weather is crazy. I passed no less than 13 accidents on my way home tonight. Portions of 95 and the Beltway were completely closed. Wouldn't you think it would cause people to be more prudent, slow down, and allow more space between cars? Apparently not. Like I said...crazy!

Boo Boo

The day after the Baptism, Katherine fell at daycare and suffered a rug burn on her nose. It didn't seem to hurt or bother her until the scab starting coming off and itched. At least it was AFTER the baptism.

Baptism

Katherine was finally baptized on January 27th! We weren't sure how she was going to react to the whole process, especially since our Pastor would be holding her the whole time. She had been very standoffish with him. But Katherine handled everything like a champ and even seemed to have fun. It was great to have family and friends there to share in our joy.

Weber Christmas

We had Christmas with the Webers and Perrys a few weeks ago. A dinner cruise on the Lantern Queen followed by presents and desserts at the house made for an enjoyable get-together.

Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas! It was nice to get together with family and friends. And we're not even finished yet. We'll be having Christmas with the Weber side of the family in a few weeks!

We got together at Uncle Bob and Aunt Jenny's on Christmas Eve for lunch. The company was wonderful and the food delicious. Katherine was given a microphone which she absolutely loves. Here is a picture of the "Diva in Training".














We all went to the Christmas Eve service that evening. Katherine sat with Daddy in the congregation and helped him sing. She also managed to get her babysitter who was playing Mary in the Manger Story to giggle. Oh yeah, she also survived her first candlelight "Silent Night". (her Uncle Scott used to catch his hair on fire!)

Christmas was a joy with K-dog. We figured that she'd be more interested in ripping off the wrapping paper and playing with the boxes. Instead, she took time to play with just about every toy she received. Here are a few pictures. There are two of her unwrapping her new piano. And the third is of her new rocking horse.
