Dad (Brett)
All around rockstar geek. Brett enjoys his job as a Clinical Data Manager (helping research medical breakthroughs at Celgene); in his time off he enjoys reading books, watching movies, and learning new tricks on his camera and in Photoshop. He absolutely adores his wife and 2 daughters.

Mom (Erin)
Complete supermom. Erin loves her job as a Youth Field Researcher (aka 'mother'); in her plentiful spare time (ha!) she enjoys sleeping, re-reading Twilight or Harry Potter, and cuddling with Brett.

Aeriana ('Wacko', 'Princess')
Hybrid Angel/Devil. Aeriana loves her mommy and daddy, each of whom she loves to test at times and pretend innocence at others. A veritable sponge, Aeriana wants to do anything she sees an adult doing; she loves babies and especially adores her little sister, taking great care of her every need.

Zoe Jean ('Stinker', 'Cutie')
Growing fast, Zoe wants to be just like her big sister. Very goal oriented, she'll find a way to get that toy she's been looking at. She loves her pacifier and can't help but snuggle up to her blanket. Zoe is as relaxed as they come, she just loves chillin' out and watching TV.

Christmas Bells Are Ringing

At least, in our home the Christmas bells are ringing. We love Christmas; Halloween is fun, Thanksgiving is great, but nothing compares to Christmas. The first to come is always the Christmas music, I started listening to Christmas music about 2 weeks ago; next we'll start to decorate our apartment sometime next weekend. Why wait longer than we have to, we LOVE Christmas!

To share in the Christmas joy, I thought it would be fun to post a daily Christmas song on this blog. To the right, you'll notice a small addition where my hand-picked Christmas favorites can be heard. What you will also notice is that there is not just one song, there are two. I had too much trouble narrowing my picks down to 61 songs (one a day from Nov. 1 to Dec. 31), so instead I decided to have two new songs every day. It was still difficult, but I managed to narrow it down to 122 of my absolute favorite Christmas songs.

I really hope you enjoy the music and the season.



P.S. Part of what made this possible was my discovery if an amazing site called Grooveshark; it's a radio station type site, but better... you can create a free profile and then save playlists that you like and add favorite songs to your "Library" to listen to any time. It's not a perfect site, I've seen some hiccups, but it's still a lot of fun and I definitely recommend you check it out.

I listened to both songs today (the 2nd one was fun and silly = especially after starting so calm) but the Snowflake on is so so so awesome. I'm about ready to go buy the piano music to it. It was beautiful - how do we go backwards and hear the ones we missed????
