Columbus Zoo

Georgia and I took a trip to the zoo yesterday. Lots of fun!

Where did the time go??

I just realized that it has been over a month since I last posted some photos. We've had a pretty typical month with the exception being Georgia's birthday. She turned 4 last week and we can hardly believe it. Here are some photos from the past month, including her party.

Like father, like daughter...

Apparently, the love of reciting movie quotes is passed genetically from father to daughter. This is from There Will Be Blood (trailer attached.

Haircut

Before going bowling, Georgia got a haircut.

We think she looks pretty cute! She liked it today but was less than thrilled at 5am when she got up to use the bathroom and saw herself in the mirror. "I want my hair longer!"

Superbowl!!

On Saturday, Brian and Georgia met the Burgoons at the Superbowl. This was Georgia's first time bowling and she was pretty excited. She bowled along with Stacy's three children and the granddaughter of Stacy and Bill's good friends.

Stacy was surprised to see Brian's skills on the lanes.

Georgia in her bowling shoes, which she loved and was disappointed to have to return.

Her face is weird because she is eating a Tootsie Roll.

Here is Brian showing off his "moves" on the Dance Dance Revolution game. For some reason, he could only move his right leg.

Georgia giving DDR a try.

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Love,

Brian, Patti & Georgia

Nothing much is new here.

Just a photo from today.
Hope you ave a great rest of the week!

P&G

Jedi Georgia

We were hanging at a bookstore and Georgia and daddy enjoyed playing with the lightsabers. She took to it like a Tuan Tuan to snow. The force is strong with this one.

Road Trip to C-Bus

This morning Georgia and I hopped into the new yellow Bug

and drove to COSI for a few hours this afternoon.

We had a great time.

A BIG thanks to Aunt Kathy! G & I are loving our freedom with the second car.

If only...

Why can't every day

be a preschool day?

Happy New Year!!

Too pooped to party.

"Oh my goodness!! Daddy!! Santa left presents!!"

Happy Holidays!

The holidays are approaching quickly and we have had a busy (for us) month with lots of snow, visits from Grandma and Grandpa (2), Aunt Donna, Aunt Kathy, Tante and Tony. These photos are from last weekend when Georgia and Brian, with the help of our very friendly new neighbors, made a snowman.

Today we made a trip down to spend some time with the Burgoons. Georgia really loves playing with all three of their great children and tonight's play ended with a huge Hannah Montana dance party. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation played on the big screen in the basement.

Thanks to Stacy for sharing the great photos from earlier tonight!

First Real Snow of the Season

Brian is paying the cost to be the boss.

No snow days for him!!

House photos

Finally online and settling in

We are finally online again and are nearly settled into the new house. We had a great holiday weekend, with Brian's family on Thanksgiving Day - although Supernana was ill and unable to come. She is feeling better, thank goodness. - and Patti's family on Friday. It was fun to have people over to see the new house and Georgia loved to show off and share her new bedroom and basement with everyone.

We've already put out our holiday decorations and will try to post some photos soon. Take care and have a great week!! PB&G

Happy Halloween!

Unlike last Halloween, this year we were all healthy and ready to trick-or-treat! Georgia the ballerina headed down to KY to walk around the Burgoon's neighborhood with Elena (a pink-haired witch), Riley (Raggedy Ann), Carter (Scooby Doo) and their neighbor, Casey (Peter Pan). After some initial trepidation - they go all out down there. One neighbor had a haunted garage - G had a great time.

**Please excuse the mess in these photos, as we've started packing for the upcoming move.**

Thanks to the 'Goons for letting us tag along!

Believe it or not, these were the first pupmkins I have ever carved. Maybe next year we will actually remember to buy candles/lights for them...

Bergefurd's Farm

We spent a great Sunday afternoon at a wonderful pumpkin farm in Wilmington with Tante, Tony, Grandma, Grandpa and the Burgoon family. The kids pet and fed some animals, went through 2 mazes (a mini hay maze and a bigger one in the sunflower field), and took a hayride to the pumpkin patch where they chose their pumpkins. Here are some photos from the day. Thanks to Tante for sharing the great photos!
