Pats are out

Pats are out

Even though Eva wore her Patriots cheerleader outfit today it couldn’t change the fate of the team. Even though the Pats won their game today in windy Buffalo they are still out. Oh well, no Superbowl for us this year. A good run though even though they were Brady-less.

Today we packed up the car and headed to the Cape to do Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa (my Mom’s parents). We had a nice gathering with pizza and salad and lots of desserts. Eva was up and moving around all afternoon, she loves all the attention. And Auntie Shelby saw Allison’s Facebook update and decided to drive down to the Cape to spend time with everyone. What a great way for social media to connect family.

Dad and I popped over to our house and picked up his motorcycle to bring home. I took a bunch of Eva’s baby stuff too. She’ll be too big for those things next summer.

Grandpa picked up an Asus Eee 900. I helped him get my blog bookmarked on it. Allison wants one of these but she wants the sweet pea green Asus Eee 901. With that she can be much more mobile with Eva. Here is Eva with her Memere (my mother) and Great-Grandfather (my gandfather).

Eva was wide awake all day and tonight she was a bit of an overtired little bear. Hopefully we will get her back on track this week.

Today Allison, Eva and I went to Sterling to have lunch with Great-Grandma Eva, Great-Grandpa-John, Great-Grandma Jackie, Great-Grandpa Bob, Uncle Nate and Auntie Sarah. We had a very nice lunch at a place called Barbers North. They have a great menu for lunchtime and many choices.

We celebrated Christmas together at the restaurant. Everyone had a wonderful time and the people at the restaurant were very nice and so good with Eva. Eva walked all over place and had so much fun. She was pretty tired by the time we left too.

Nate and Sarah had some wonderful news today. They are going to be parents. Allison and I will become an Aunt and an Uncle. Eva will have a first cousin. We are so very excited for them. They were so generous to us and Eva as well. She has a nice new “My Very Own Kitchen” to play with. She’s gonna love playing with that.

We gave out our gifts to everyone and they loved the photo book of Eva’s 1st year. I have some nice photos from the day in my Christmas 2008 Flickr Set.
