One thing is for sure, we are very blessed! It's easy sometimes to forget just how blessed we really are. While it's hard to be away from family this time of year, we have great friends here in Baltimore who fill the void. This Christmas has been slightly weird, it's been warm and didn't really feel like the Holiday Season we are used to. However once the weekend came and we started participating in our now traditions, it was clear Christmas was here. Typically we have dinner with friends on Christmas Eve. This year we moved it up a day and spent Christmas Eve Eve with Val and Kenny at Chameleon Cafe. Christmas Eve we stayed home and made ourselves some Christmas Fettuccine. It was so good I think it's now a new tradition. Christmas morning we woke to open all the gifts our families had sent. I'm not sure we deserve all the wonderful gifts but we appreciate the thought and effort that went into all of them. Lastly we hit the streets with our friends Gary and Sandy to hand out blankets to the homeless here in Baltimore. We were able to provide a holiday gift for 25 people this year, and hope to be able to grow our efforts in the years to come.


We hope all of our family and friends had a wonderful Christmas! We love you and miss you!
