IBEW 103 Christmas Party

Hope you enjoy the photos from this year's IBEW Christmas Party. We all got ready in Falmouth and then took the trip to Dorchester to visit with Santa. Some of us were happier than others to sit on Santa's lap and tell him if we had been naughty or nice.

This wonderful party has been a tradition for a few years with our grandchildren but many years ago it was a regular holiday event for our children. It is so much fun to now see their children enjoy the party as much as they did when they were small.
The union does a great job every year and we hope to go to many, many more in future years.

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!!!!!!!!

Another wondeful weekend in Falmouth during December. The family got together to celebrate the Christmas Tree lighting of 2008 and the Falmouth Main Street Stroll.
The kids had a blast and the weather on Saturday night was perfect.
We saw the beautiful "pole" lit up, listened to the Christmas Carolers, checked out all of the displays and of course topped it off with an ice cream from Ghelfi's!
The stroll down Main Street was Christmas Card perfect. All the stores were so beautifully decorated.
Camille and Charlotte were very happy with their light up butterflies, and Louis and Nolan loved their light sabers. Louis was happy to watch Nolan receive his first one and add number 5 to his collection of sabers.

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Birthday to Camille

Nolan in a great hat that Charlotte made at day care.

Charlotte, Camille and Louis, Thanksgiving 2008

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration at Lauren and Paul's beautiful home.

Will and Hudie did a great job doing most of the cooking. The turkey was purchased at a local farm nearby Lauren and Paul's home. It was cooked to perfection as were all the great desserts and birthday cake.

Charlotte enjoyed eating her cousin Camille's cake. We all couldn't believe that Camille was eight years old! She is growing up so fast.

Big Nana joined us and was just wonderful. She enjoyed the food, the children and the warm welcome from her family and Lauren's parents.

Happy Birthday Papa

Louis and Nana baked a wonderful train cake for Papa for his birthday. Louis did most of the work, he even cracked the eggs himself! Papa was so surprised to see that it was a train because we fooled him and told him that it was a dinosaur cake to trick him. We didn't put much frosting on the chocolate cake but we had plenty of butter cream to add if you wanted. Also, vanilla and mint chocolate chip ice cream.

Of course this delicious dessert was after a nice family dinner together at Nana and Papa's house.

I wish I got a photo of Louis's beautiful face, like I did of the other kids, but he was so busy singing to his Papa that I only got the back of his head!

Elmo and his friend Nolan

OK....so, maybe a visit to Elmo wasn't the best idea that I have had.

Halloween

A few photos of Halloween. Camille was a High School Cheerleader. Charlotte was a princess and Nolan was Superman. I don't have a photo of Louis but he was the best Storm Trooper ever!

Pumpkin Picking

Pumpkin Picking

On a beautiful autumn day all of "My babies" took a trip to Millis for a great day of pumpkin picking and painting. We had a hay ride that took us out to the pumpkin fields. There the children were able to choose their pumpkins. After a ride back to the barn, they got to paint their pumpkins anyway they wanted. From these photos you will see that they were very intent on designing beautiful pumpkins!
