PA weekend

since we weren't able to head out to PA for christmas because the kids were sick, we decided to go out there this past weekend. we arrived friday evening, a little before 5pm, and had a great time until we left on monday morning. we went to the park by the river and went on the "swirly thing" (as charlie called it - we would call it a merry go round) and fed the ducks. kim and nina went to gabe's and ollie's sunday afternoon. while they were gone, charlie and john had their own, mini version of a music weekend, spending about 2+ hours in the music room making beautiful music. and of course, we got to spend some quality time with granny and pappaw.

big ben did it again. he led his team down the field with 2:30 left and made an incredible pass to santonio holmes, who in turn made an unbelievable catch to win super bowl XLIII. we had a nice spread of wings, chipped ham, guacamole, vege dip, kim's homemade spreadable cheese, cupcakes, cake, and banana cream pie. of course, to accompany all of that food, we had yueling beer and margaritas. even tux, our dog, got into the act.

congrats stillers!
