Christmas 2007 - NJ, NY and PA


First stop on the Christmas tour was to NJ and Chris and Robins house. It was Chris's birthday, Matt and Angela, Em and Rob were there as well as Owen and Bella. The house was full, the dogs were playing and barking and Perogies were made and consumed. As you can see, we finally had the Tuxedo Convention with all the Boston's making merry. Christmas Eve day we got up and continued on to NY to celebrate Christmas with my parents.

Mom puts up a small Christmas tree now, but it goes in the same place as when I was a child - in the front window! Just the sight of it brought back good memories and happy childhood times, when Santa came and left all sorts of presents for me to play with.


The day after Christmas we started back towards home, with a stop in Bethlehem PA. Christine and her mom and dad, Alexandra her daughter and Bill, her Sig Other all were there and again, copious quantities of yummy food were in abundance. after dinner, we played Launch Uno, with Alex some how winning every hand.
All in all a lot of traveling, but we got to spend all the special days with family and dear friends. But the holidays are not over yet!

My mom started using small Christmas trees a few years back. Its something that I can see myself embracing--would definately make the whole clean up thing easier.
