rainy days and mondays

I'm taking a little break from putting up Chrismas decorations to blog. We returned from South Carolina last night at 11:30!!!! What should have been an 8 hour trip took 10 hours. I have just one word: traffic. :-(

Anyway, Thanksgiving was a huge success! We had a wonderful time. I just love Brian's family--they have always made me feel welcome, even when we were dating. So I just wanna give a shout out to the extended Sox family--hey, guys!! I had no idea that they were all reading my blog! Crazy!

I did everything I could to get some good pictures of Emma, but she's just too quick for me. She smiles at the camera for a split second--not even long enough for me to push the button! As a result, I got lots of pictures of the back of her head!!

I just wanted to share a few pictures from our holiday trip. I've just spent about an hour trying to get the pictures into a nice format, but I just can't do it!! So they're all in a big long line, sorry. (click on a picture for a bigger image)
