Thanksgiving Cruise

We had a blast on our 7 day Caribbean cruise over Thanksgiving. We had both sets of grandparents, the kids loved that. We also celebrated Frank's 84th birthday on Thanksgiving day.

Happy Halloween

Zach was Indiana Jones and Katie was . . . . you guessed it, a princess. This year she was Sleeping Beauty.

Scott was the Grim Reaper, in honor of the fact that he has had to lay off or fire tons of people this year.

I was a dominatrix - scandalous, I know. I just told the kids I was a "bad lady," but I'm not sure "lady" is appropriate :-)

Denver Half-Marathon

I finished!!!! My official time was 2:11:22.

Katie's new bike

Katie was mad that I posted a picture of her riding a "boy's bike" - well, here she is on her own bicycle - no surprises on the color of this one!

Katie had a great birthday party - Zach recently lost his first tooth. You won't believe how much the tooth fairy pays these days. For a picture of the $ left to Zach, see Mom and Dad's blog.

Zach is getting to be such a grown up boy now - I can't believe it

Update - finally

Well, I know I've been horrible at this, but I'm finally going to give it a crack - here are some recent photos of our family. Katie learned how to ride a bike a couple of weeks ago, she is so proud of herself!!! Of course, as a reward we ALL got new bikes. Yes, as usual we are single-handedly trying to prop up the consumer economy.

I'm going to run the Denver 1/2 Marathon on Sunday morning - look for posts of this afterwards

OK - we are finally trying this - we'll see how it goes
