Send more Hawaiian Cream crackers!

Just kidding! Thanks, Grammy, we received the Hawaiian cream crackers. However, Blue already ate half of one box. When we out to dim sum this afternoon, we left it on the kitchen table (our mistake) and when we came home there were 2 empty plastic wrappers and a beaten up box! She ate 8 crackers!! Bad dog!! Oh well, the dim sum was pretty good and the service was excellent. It seems like Newton has at least 4 dim sum places. I suppose this is due to the large well-to-do Chinese community here in town.

A few weeks back we went tree shopping. What a cold miserable day! Welcome to Boston!

This place came highly recommended.

A rare family shot.

Across the street there is an IHOP. We thought we would start a family tradition of tree shopping then breakfast at IHOP. However, IHOP kind of s**ks.

Tub shot!

Sweet girl!

Mom, we're going shopping. Need anything?

Arden loves tv, especially Barney. Even Cari was mesmerized for 2 minutes, which is a record for her. Normally, she will not even GLANCE at the tv.

We were having our "special time". The twins were napping and Lani was doing an "arts project".
