A New Year

Happy New Year! We rang in the new year in our usual fashion with family. It was more quiet this year than normal, but we still had a great time. The kids had a blast. They all made it to midnight and thankfully all slept in the morning. Fintan didn't wake up until 1100 today!

We are looking forward to 2011. A lot of crappy family illnesses happened in 2010 and we are hoping all of that is behind us this year. We were plenty ready to say goodbye to 2010 and hello to 2011.

This is Otto. He is the newest member of our menagerie. He arrived via Santa on Christmas morning to the delight of Fintan. He has been a great pet so far and getting very used to handling as I think he has been in his cage for about 5 minutes over the past week.
