Christmas Time 2009

Sarah and Samme Sue love their new recliner!

This is the coolest egg tray ever! It was a hit at Christmas Eve dinner with the Fredericks family.

Go NY Giants!!! (too bad they didn't make the playoffs this year)

Our awesome tree!

An even awesome-er tree! Our trip to NYC for the holidays was so much fun! The tree at Rock. Center is so HUGE!

While we were in NYC, we stopped to see Blue Man Group. The show was a lot of fun. We especially liked throwing the toilet paper!

Fall 2009...Sarah turns 30, 1 Year Anniversary!

I surprised Sarah with a weekend getaway in the 1000 Islands at Wellesley Island in a cozy cabin.

It was a beautiful fall weekend; the view was beautiful!

Halloween 2009 with our two favorite witches, Julia and Ava.

We also celebrated Sarah's 30th birthday this month, but I didn't get a picture :(
It was a cold afternoon surprise in the park behind our house in NY Mills. All of her friends and family were present to celebrate.

August Fun!

We were very busy in August! We went to the NY State Fair 3 times!
Here is a pic of this year's Butter Sculpture...

We also saw Kelly Clarkson and Gavin DeGraw there... Amazing!

And Darius Rucker too!

We also got away for a couple of days and went to Darien Lake...

Sarah took me on a tour of her old Daemen College campus and

we had lunch with her friend Cathy, her husband and son.

Stay tuned for any Fall updates!

Silly "Children"

Scrabble needs a drink and Samme is not
happy in this heat! We love our children!

Renaissance Festival 2009

We had so much fun at the Renaissance Festival in Sterling,
NY with David (who wouldn't take his picture!).
Not really sure who thought it was a good idea to give Sarah an axe!

Watkins Glen State Park

Some pictures from our day at Watkins Glen State Park. It was so beautiful! I would recommend the trip to anyone. It's a steep climb up and of course steep on the way down, so be prepared for a workout. The views, the amazing natural formations, I could go on and on. When you are looking for peace, to get away from it all, this place will do the trick! I think I speak for both Sarah and I when I say we came back so much more centered and ready to take on the next stage in our lives. Happy hiking everyone!

Samme Sue on Video

My first try at posting a video on the Blog:
Samme didn't feel like being a movie star today!
