Happy Birthday Kev!

Tomorrow is my brother's birthday. I found these pictures that must have been taken around Thanskgiving time. Hope you have a great day Kev!

TGIF!

My Dad's 60th

I guess the holidays got the best of me and I forgot to post pictures from my dad's birthday party. We were lucky to have everyone in town for the weekend so we figured we'd make the most of it. I feel badly because I didn't get any pictures of David or Brian. They were probably too busy running around helping me to pose for a picture. It was a fun day!

My dad and his three grandchildren!

Lily and Colin waiting anxiously for guests to arrive.

Maybe they'll come to the back door instead?

This is the cake Bridget and Brian got from Premier Pastry. Once again, PP does not disappoint! Go Irish!

Colin and Grandpa saying hi to Rosie.

Here is the beautiful centerpiece Nicole made. It is filled with lottery tickets (appropriate for my dad) and embraces the whole "luck of the Irish" idea!

Even Rosie got her own outfit.

The Gaffneys

Jack already dug into the cake at this point. Check out Colin sizing that thing up!

Kev and Nicole had to sit at the kids' table.

The quality isn't the greatest here but still, a sweet photo of dad and son.

Happy Birthday Aunt Bridget!

We Love You!

Laugh For Your Friday - Our Budding Physician

The other day Jack mentioned to me that he had to take care of Crocodile. He said he was hurt and needed a band-aid. I didn't really think much of it. Then David asked me this morning, "Did you see what Jack did with his Crocodile? I found some of his beads (stuffing) on the floor. Jack put a bandage on his leg to stop the beading." BADUMBUM.

Christmas Morning

Warning: Lots of Pictures!

We had a nice, early Christmas morning. We were joined by Toni, Dave, Kate, Steve and Matt. So, please keep that in mind when you look at the abundance of gifts. Geesh. It's almost embarrassing. Needless to say, Santa was very good to the Archers. Here are some pictures before the kids came downstairs. It seems Santa forgot to close the fireplace doors on his way out.

Santa left a letter for Jack and Lily.


No wonder it took us awhile to open presents!

New easel! Score!


New little kitchen set.

Lily looks like she's playing jenga with the presents.

David looking rather serious. I think this was his new cap from Matt.

Jack found this in his stocking!

I guess a nurse has to have a nice bag.

Taking a breather and discussing gift strategy with Uncle Matt.

I never would have guessed, when I was at Geneseo, that some day Matt would sit with his niece and graciously hold her princess shoes and read her Pinkalicious books

My hair looks like I just passed through a wind tunnel here but it's the only pic I have from Christmas of me...so enjoy.

Have I mentioned that Lily is a bit taken with Steve?

She wanted Steve to admire her new princess gown.

I found this picture on my camera later.

I think Lily and Kate were both wearing princess heels in this picture.

David and his princess on Christmas morning

That Grandma Toni is so funny.

I wish Toni had been wearing her princess gown in this picture. :)
