Christmas Batch #1

We are off to Michigan today for the big NYE celebration, but before we rolled out of the "City of Broad Shoulders" I thought I would post some Holiday pictures...enjoy and thanks to the "D"'s for throwing a great party.

YES, you will be on the portal!

From the grassy knoll comes video filmed of every occasion, like it or not... in this case Christmas eve at the DiClementi's. Enjoy a shot as the grab-bag game begins... many more Christmas shots to follow...

A Very Zehren Christmas

Our good friends the Zehrens rolled into Chicago last weekend and we had a blast. David, Maria, Brody, and Quinn Zehren all were in town for a Zehren Christmas reunion in Lake Geneva, but they came in a few days early for a visit. We hung out in the house, and hit the town at night - all in all, a good time. We even got a picture of something never seen before - David doing the dishes.

Happy Holidays from Chicago

We're in full Christmas spirit here at the homestead... enjoy the pictures of our tree, the house from outside, and the last shot is of the house during a blizzard.... enjoy.

This looks a "Madonna" video from the mid 80's...

Our daughter absolutely loves to look at herself in the mirror...... BTW - this was taken at the doctor's office, not necessarily a place that would make one feel "comfortable".....

The ramblings of a 9 month old....

Putting lila in the snowsuit....

One of the thing that has surprised Jill and I as parents (one of MANY!) is how difficult it is to mobilize and go.... check out the process of getting lila in her snowsuit and also a GREAT shot as Grandma D gives her a bath. Enjoy.
