Desert Museum in Tucson

On our last day in Tucson, we drove out to the Desert Museum. It was an amazing place and we'd recommend anyone who finds themselves near Tucson to give it a go.

Christmas 2005

Christmas 2005 once again found us in Atlanta with Jeb's parents. Outside of some heating issues early in the weekend, we had a very relaxing time and Simon enjoyed his first Christmas. His favorite activity was plucking the bows off the gifts. Given how good he is at it, he got to pull the bows off all the gifts. Also, true to cliche, he had more fun playing in the wrapping paper than playing with any of the toys or books he received.

Enjoy the holiday pics.
