Holiday Season 2006

We are about to wrap up another year and 2006 was a year of change. As always change is difficult but it does lead to new and exciting things. I like working at JNJ much better than I thought I would... nice place, good people, great products. Aaron is moving on from MdTAP to I.C.E. And Lisa and Aaron will eventually relocate to St. Louis for awhile. Wedding, births, and passings made for dynamic family changes. All this will take some getting use to as well but all and all I can't complain. We are all working, healthy, and happy!

Dottie always waits for the kids to hang their special ornaments on the tree. Lisa and Steve had a little fun with who's ornament was more prominent and who's were higher on the tree. It was fun to watch.

Santa got Lisa and Aaron a digital frame and I put 1000 pictures on it for them with some music!
Scout always gets a few gifts from Santa as well. I think she is starting to understand Christmas is for her too. She took some time to sniff around and find some gifts that she knew had doggie treats in them. She's pretty smart! After Mass we always have a traditional meal of homemade pierogis. They were exceptional this year!

It was a great Christmas. We really enjoyed having Steve, Lisa, Aaron, and Scout with us for Christmas. Kudos go out to Aaron for his effort in getting here this year all the way from FLETC in Georgia, United Airlines was no help. Thank goodness for rental cars and the fact that he can drive fast.
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Safe, Healthy, and Happy New Year to all our friends and family.
Love, Steve and Dot
