Merry Christmas!

Being so far away from our families, Christmas is always a little bittersweet. We miss our friends and family in Maine and, with the baby due at any moment, we weren't able to travel to see Meaghan's family in North Carolina, either. But we're thinking of you all. Well, I was right up until I popped my new 2004 Red Sox "Faith Rewarded" DVD in, then I got a little distracted. Spoiler alert -- the Sox win it all in end.

And did you like our tree? It's about 3 feet tall, but I used a camera trick to make it look huge -- at least 4 feet high! Nice to know those hours spent watching the documentary footage on the Return of the King DVD weren't wasted, eh?
