Absence Makes the Guilt Grow Longer

Well, here it is the end of January and my blog has nothing to show for it. A TON has happened in the past few months, and the fact that I haven't kept up with this blog has been plaguing me...the complete opposite reason for starting the blog, to relax and have an outlet. Don't let the outlet be a burden, let it be the outlet. Ok, I'm back. So, I feel the best way to catch up is a quick photo journalesque recap covering Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Noah's 1st birthday. That should do it...yeah. (These are just a few pics; check the Photo website for the complete albums.)
