It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Saturday the Vitz family purchased their Christmas tree.

Simon was thrilled at the thought that we were bringing a real life tree inside the house AND that we would be putting lights on it.

Getting ready to put on our tree topper.

Simon inspecting a job well done. He thinks our angel is Isaac.
We suppose there is some resemblance.

Isaac was such a trooper. He has had such a bad head cold but he was as excited about our decorating the tree as anyone.

Sunday, Simon was thrilled that the tree was still there!

And Isaac finally found those visions of sugar plums he had been searching for.

When mountains are measured in seconds....

JP after 4 grueling days of swimming competition.

He swam his first USA meet this weekend at George Mason University with his swim club. In between events he also swam two meets for The Heights School and helped bring in two wins.

He had fun swimming in a pool where Michael Phelps broke a record when he was in high school and JP got a taste of swimming with some top swimmers .

He's wiped-out but loving it!

Happy Birthday to the King of Cameron Rd

We love you!

Merry Feast of The Immaculate Conception of Mary

Today marks the one year anniversary of surviving the night that our Fr. Andrew dissected his aorta.

We merrily renew our thanksgiving for the intercession of Our Lady on Fr. Andrew's behalf.

We thank all of you for the clamor of prayers on his behalf that stormed heaven from family and friends and friends of friends of friends. We are so happily amazed!

We offer our love and prayers for your intentions at today's Mass and continuing.

Penelope's First Bath

Isaac Andrew turns 6 months.

Any "baby" status he may have once enjoyed has now been passed on to sweet Penny.
Once you hit the 6 month mark you start loading the dishwasher.

We love you so much Isaac!

Happy Birthday, Uncle James!
