Catch up to December

Since last written so much has gone on. Nolan turned three and we had a great Halloween.
Another wonderful holiday season was spent together. Right after Thanksgiving we went on our annual trip to Aruba. It was just beautiful and the island was getting ready for Christmas and Sintaclaus Day. The decorations were lovely and the beach was even lovelier! When we got home it was the made dash to get ready for Christmas. The day after we got home we went to the IBEW Christmas party followed soon after by the Polar Express. Tiger and I were then off to CT for the Second District's Annual Christmas party at Water's Edge. As always that was a great time. We then celebrated with dinner on different nights with friends and family all the while stopping whenever we could to get to a mall to shop!
Camille turned 9 at the end of November but since some of us were away we all celebrated in December at a mani/pedi party. Such fun.
Then the real rush began.....Christmas Eve we all went to Mass together and then back to our home for pizza and birthday cake for baby Jesus. Christmas Day we went to Andrea's house and had a nice Italian Christmas dinner. Of course we all went to see Nana at Briarwood for dessert. I brought her samples of all our food. She said it was good, but not as good as she made it! lol
I wish that we had a day to relax but still on the go until after the New Year and speaking of New Year...All of the Wards, Fays and Joyces want to wish our family and friends a wonderful New Year and hope that 2010 is filled with peace, happiness, health and joy! We are awaiting the birth of our fifth grandchild and can't wait to hold him in January 2010!
