The WSJ Crossword Puzzle

I spent time with AJ yesterday and we watched the Polar Express together. It was his first viewing of this movie and while parts of it are a little scary (the train ride over the ice) he really seemed to enjoy it. So much so in fact that he took the DVD home and I am sure Jesi and Beth will be watching it again and again with him. I will have to remember to get him a sleigh bell for Christmas.

Steve got some help working the crossword puzzle yesterday too. I think these pictures pretty well tell the story.











Tonight is the Belmont Christmas party...actually the "holiday party" but I like to think of it as the Christmas party. I am getting old enough that I do not have to be politically correct all of the time. The club is beautifully decorated and we are looking forward to a record turnout. The band is great and there will be lots of dancing tonight. As the co chair this year it has been trying at times to keep everyone happy and still put our own ideas into the party but we are ready tonight to have fun. Let the holidays roll in.

I can see from the crossword puzzle pictures that AJ has great concentration skills for such a young guy - I am sure he was a great help to Stu!!!
Your Christmas party sounds like it was wonderfully planned - no doubt with you at the helm!!

Rock on for Christmas parties!! I am sure it was absolutely fairy tale like and that everyone had a wonderful time.
AJ just can not get any cuter can he? I can only guess that the puzzle was done in record time...Enjoy every moment-you and Steve deserve the best. Happy Holidays-as always with lots of love around!
