Autumn in New York

Hello from beautiful central New York!  We are here for a week visiting Eric's family for the holiday.  We landed in our little puddle jumper on Thanksgiving Day and enjoyed a delicious traditional holiday meal prepared by Eric's mom.  That evening we also paid a visit to the rest of her side of the family and met the older of the two new babies in our family, Eric's cousin's little boy, Aiden.  What a cutie! 

The next day we slept in a bit and relaxed until late in the morning so we wouldn't have to battle the Black Friday crowds.  My one major purchase was a new pair of classic black boots on major sale at JCPenney, but we also finished up our Christmas shopping for Eric's side and spent quality time with our beautiful and amazing teeny-tiny nephew, Andrew Wilson Kazmarek!  He was born November 9, so he's still only a few weeks old. We are crazy about him!  Here are some cute photos I've taken of the little guy.

Ain't he a sweetheart?  In the meantime, we've just been relaxing, spending time with family, opening gifts, and hanging out with Andrew, introducing him to our favorite holiday movie, Elf!  Perfect examples of the Comedy Rule of Threes for the future superstar.
