My new sweater and the hospital is pretty much empty on the outpatient side.  So no one got to see it.

We met up with A and R for breakfast then Riley went to a gift exchange party with her school chums.  I don't know if they are her chums but I like that word.

Saxophone playing before mass.

She was in charge of the first reading.  She did very well.

See?

These are her confirmation buddies.  I'm not sure why they are posing like that?

Hi Santa!!

The cousins - next generation.  The first time we took this kind of picture, there were only 4 kids!

Ranging in age from 2 to 16.  And in height from 3 feet to 6 feet.

He's trying to take pity on her.  

These two got teamed up in hide and go seek.

'Sup little buddy!!

The girls, technically Riley is shorter than Grace and Mollie.  She still has Layla and Sophie by a few inches.  And Sophie's parents aren't tall so I don't think we have to worry much about her.  Give Layla about 15 years and Riley's in trouble.

Riley and my godfather, Skip.

Hey pretty lady.  Thanks for the filter

We rushed home from Chicago so that we could hit up the Colts vs Giants game and it was super exciting!!  The Colts won on a last second play to stay alive in the playoff chase.  We got home to watch the Westminster Dog Show and I picked the winner!
