Kaitlyn turns 10
On January 7th, Kaitlyn turned 10. We were invited to her house for Pie and Ice Cream. I can hardly believe that it has been 10 years since she was born. She is as adorable as ever and certainly growing up too quickly.
We really hope she had a great birthday!

James Blunt live in concert
Lucky for me, my work uses Atlantic recording artists in all of our commercials, which means if an artist is traveling through town we usually get a free concert! In this case it was James Blunt the english singer-songwriter and musician, whose debut album, Back to Bedlam and single releases, including "You're Beautiful" and "Goodbye my Lover", brought him to fame in 2005
It was a great short concert and I enjoyed it with my good friend Jenne and her daughter Missy.
Here is a small video I took with my phone

Groundhog Day: Punxsutawney Phil predicts early spring
Groundhog Day is a holiday celebrated on February 2 in the United States and Canada. According to folklore, if it is cloudy when a groundhog emerges from its burrow on this day, it will leave the burrow, signifying that winter will soon end. If it is sunny, the groundhog will supposedly see its shadow and retreat back into its burrow, and winter will continue for six more weeks.[1]Modern customs of the holiday involve celebrations where early morning festivals are held to watch the groundhog emerging from its burrow. In southeastern Pennsylvania, Groundhog Lodges (Grundsow Lodges) celebrate the holiday with fersommlinge,[2] social events in which food is served, speeches are made, and one or more g'spiel (plays or skits) are performed for entertainment. The Pennsylvania German dialect is the only language spoken at the event, and those who speak English pay a penalty, usually in the form of a nickel, dime or quarter, per word spoken, put into a bowl in the center of the table.[3]
The largest Groundhog Day celebration is held in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Groundhog Day, already a widely recognized and popular tradition,[4] received worldwide attention as a result of the 1993 film of the same name, Groundhog Day, which was set in Punxsutawney and featured Punxsutawney Phil.[5]

{Christmas at Amy's}
Here is the last of my Christmas posts and I believe that it will catch me up for December and January isn't over yet so there is hope for me still. Anyway... technically these pictures could have been posted on the Christmas Day post since they are from Christmas day, but in an attempt to not explode the blogosphere I separated them.
After a time of hanging out with everyone at my mom's house we proceed to visit Amy's house to see what ole St. Nick left there and play with their various toys as well as looking at their Christmas decor, since we never manage to get there any other time.
Hanging out with family is always fun.
