Who Was the First Female Actor?
Margaret Hughes may have been the first professional actress in England. The occasion of her first performance was on 8 December 1660, in a production of Shakespeare's play Othello, when she played the role of Desdemona in a production by Thomas Killigrew's new King's Company at their Vere Street theatre.

Christmas with Allee and Boston
Well, we wrap up Christmas season with a visit from Allee and Boston. Because of our sickness here, we did things a little late. First of all, I want to show how much he has grown up. Here is Boston in April.
and here they are from Saturday. Look how much his hair has grown. I think Allee lost weight too (like she had it to lose!). Don't they look great!

Happy New Year!
Well, I had been gearing up for the ultimate vacay this year. From 23rd to the 4th I was going to do my best Jabba the Hut impression. Well, I did it alright, totally sick! That's right! I sat on my throne (my lazy boy, not the other one!), with my Snuggie, another blanket, bucket-o-ibuprofen, bucket-o-decongestant, tissues and the remote. What a vacation (haha.) Anyway, I missed the big party at Neil and Donielle's (sorry guys, I hear it was a blast!), but my cute little boys didn't want me to stay home alone. So we watched movies. Topher fell asleep at 10:30 (poor guy!) and Tim and I were fighting to stay awake. At 11:50, we woke Topher up and went upstairs so we could get ready to do some serious pan bangin. Topher was so tired, Tim gave him a piggy back up the stairs.
It didn't take long for them to wake up though. Here they are, ready to go!

Merry Christmas 2009!
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone had a great holiday! Ours was a blast! Here is Tim leaving a snack for Santa. Topher was so tired, he didn't want to come out. He did write a note for Santa and he gave it to me to put with the snack.
When we woke up the next morning, it was gone!
I was afraid it was going to be a VERY LEAN Christmas out our house this year. I know it has been for a lot of us. Fortunately, Santa was able to pull it out of his booty one more year and make it great for our kids. We did, however, reflect on how lucky we are, and that Santa may not have been able to do that for all families. We count our blessings everyday! Merry Christmas!

Christmas dogs!
You know how there are people that always have their eyes closed in pictures? They are ultra sensitive to the flash. Well, that is Gizmo. I must have taken about 5 pics of him before I got him to keep his eyes open. They were so funny (although he probably doesn't think so!) I finally got smart and turned the flash off!
