Waving bye-bye to 09

Good gracious.

It's been since last year since we've updated this. We have been so busy in Washington. I think I had last left off offering a fraction of some random pictures we had accumulated way back in early November. Two months later and well, I'm still accumulating random pictures. All I can say is that with Olivienne running around like a fireball, it's just a bit harder to sneak away and sit quietly at the computer. Like right now, we're here in Kansas, and she's trying to cirque du soliel her way through one of my dad's kneeling chairs. She is quite the contortionist. With my peripheral vision perpetually locked on her, I'll recap what's happened these last 2 months in a series of posts...
