By popular request, we had Julia's portrait taken in these precious outfits. The pink hat and boots are an absolute favorite around here.

Julia got her picture taken as a 22-month-old.

Our darling 11-month-old baby with the perpetual cowlick discovered a box of her wet wipes. I love this baby!

Baby Julia is 5 weeks old. We took her outside in the warm sunshine to walk around the block and get some fresh air. She is starting to smile.

God has blessed us with a delightful daughter we named Julia. We are now officially a family of three.

We went to Brian's hometown for a belated Thanksgiving and also celebrated Momma Chang's birthday a bit early. Once again, Momma Chang graced us with her snazzy hula hoop skills. We visited our home away from home in Milwaukee for some delicious Korean food and a turkey buffet the previous week and much fun was had by all.

We visited Brian's mom who was staying with her sister in Milwaukee. Kelly met Brian's extended family for the first time, and Brian's mom showed off her hula hoop skills. A few days later Brian's sister was in town on a business trip, and we met her for dinner.

We took Kelly's Mom on a whirlwind tour of Chicago and showed her the sights of Illinois including Navy Pier and Chipotle! Wow, was it ever a hot day, even with a breeze coming off Lake Michigan but the bright sunshine made for excellent picture taking.

In celebration of Uncle Jerry's Birthday, my parents traveled to Maine and took a ferry to the island of Chebeague. What a great mini-reunion it turned out to be with the trio of cousins Anne, Susie, Dave and also Alexis too. Since Kelly and Brian had just moved to Chicago, they had to miss out on all the fun (unless you count unpacking multitudes of boxes as fun). However, we were all united even if only for a few minutes by placing a long distance call to the island and having a chance to say hello to everbody. Kevin and Ann were delighted to find two childhood drawings that Kelly had made during her last visit there still hanging on the wall in the "girls" bedroom. One drawing is of Chauncey and the other was made especially for "Annie" (Kelly & Annie are about the same age).

Commencement at Harvard University. Four years have gone by seemingly in the blink of an eye! Congratulations Dave, we are so proud of you.

Kelly & Brian have a new place to call home after July 1, 2005. You can see pictures by clicking on the underlined link. After a long search, we found the place!

Kevin & Ann once again returned to Washington, D.C. for what has become an annual event . . . New Year's Eve. with their very dear friends. They also had a special treat visiting the Washington, D.C. clan with Paul and Linda. They were lucky enough to see Valerie, visiting from Switzerland, and Peter, visiting from Denver. En route home, Kevin and Ann stopped for an overnight vistit to the beachfront.

Brian's family got together for Christmas. His mom, sisters, their children, and his cousin celebrated a nice Christmas meal. The kids put on their annual Holiday Performance complete with costumes.  

Christmas was wonderful, need I say more?

Naomi's friends and family rallied around her in support of her on this very important day -- the culmination of her hard work over the past few years shone through during the ceremony. Grandma, Grandpa and relatives from everywhere journeyed to share in the joy of her accomplishments. We feel truly blessed to have been able to witness this rite of passage.
