Merry Christmas
While we were going over the Christmas story the day of Christmas Bennett played with his new Nativity that he got from Grandma and Grandpa. Then it didn't take long before Bennett opened some presents. Boy was he a good boy this year
Marybeth was even good enough to get some gifts. It was a great day to be able to spend with Family The ball pit was one of the hits of the morning, so much so that he didn't want to open any other presents. After he opened a present he ran right back to the ball pit.

Bennett got a Christmas day outfit for Christmas and he looked so handsome in it. It is a lot harder to get him to sit still at 18 months then in the months before he turned 1. Thank you to all the family and friends that sent gifts and cards we are very grateful for all of you and the kindness you show us.

Here is a little video to show what our holiday was like. We went to a fun Holiday festival in Plymouth. The big draw was the dog parade, so leading up to the parade there were dogs everywhere dressed up in christmas attire. The parade itself did not keep Bennetts attention but everywhere he turned there was a dog and he loved it. There also was a petting zoo and ice sculptures. It was a lot of fun. Then a few clips from Christmas Eve and Christmas day. You will notice a few mistakes in the video (anyone that has used vimeo knows it is a long process and not worth doing it all over again for a misplaced title) Then the best clip is at the end. After almost everyone left he entertained everyone. It was a great holiday.

Marybeth! Hi! We are moving to Boston in the fall. Peter is going to BU for a one-year Internaional MBA degree. Please please call me (801)718-9387 or email me abby.lamb@yahoo.com so that I can pick your brain: Where's a good place to live with kids? Where are most of the members? Where do you live? Where are good schools? How do I get Austin, my almost 5-year old, signed up for school there? I'd love your expertise!!
