A Very Hoffman Christmas

Michael surprised and spoiled me this Christmas with a camera I've had my eye on for quite some time (isn't he dreamy?).  He gave it to me on Christmas Eve, which we celebrated with his family.  Which means I spent most of Christmas day staring through the viewfinder of my new Canon Rebel T1i.  Here is a glimpse of Christmas 2010 at the Hoffman house...

It was a wonderful Christmas.  I'm so glad I was able to spend time with my family, nap in front of the fireplace, and take way too many pictures.  I am truly blessed.  Merry (belated) Christmas everyone!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CASSIDY!

Happy happy birthday to my favorite four year old!  Since you're an ocean away (and I've never been great at making it to the post office), I thought I'd use my newest medium of sharing information to tell you how fun it's been to watch you grow into the precocious princess you are.

Here are just a few reasons why I think you're awesome:

You didn't cry the first time I held you.

You learned early on not to believe everything your dad says.

You like my sweatshirts almost as much as I do.

You give really good directions.

You're super stylish.

You make me laugh.

You really like cake.

A lot.

Did I already mention how stylish you are?

Your wonderful sense of adventure.

Your ability to steal the show.

Your great hugs!

Your hide and seek skills.

And most of all, your loving heart.

I hope you have a wonderful day, free of musical chairs.  :)

I love and miss you!  See you in a month!
