Another year has gone by and its Christmas time again. This year we are going to stay put in New Jersey and relax by the fire place. Hopefully we will get some snow, but unfortunately the forecast isn’t too promising.

The past year has passed quickly and has been pretty full of activity. Barb and Alec have been busy learning the piano and viola, John graduated from grade 8 and is now in high school and i’ve been busy riding my bike and trying to learn about photography. Last year we were very lucky to get to visit with all our families and close friends, which when you live 500 miles and more away, is something you have to make the most of when you can.

We are looking forward to the coming year and hope that it will be a good one. This winter we have a goal to get the kids out skiing and/or snow boarding, In the spring my job will be moving to the New Jersey side of the Hudson River which will make a substantial difference in my commute, we will be going to the Huntsville High School 100 year reunion in May.

We’d like to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
