Nearly every Christmas I make the trek back home to New York to be with the family.  This year marks the first year that the girly and I put up a Christmas tree.  It’s not the biggest or fullest tree in the world, but its ours.

An unsuspected but exciting surprise that has presented itself in the past few days was my mom’s recent engagement to her long time boyfriend.  Congratulations mom and Mike!  I am very much looking forward to attending the wedding in the near future!
