First, on New Year's Eve, here is Chrissy teaching the children to play Candyland.
Next, bedtime for the children. Ruth was getting tired, but David had more energy for staying up 'til midnight than most of the adults did!
On January 2nd, we got to babysit Cousin Henry. This was possibly the first time he held his own bottle.
Later on Ruth wanted a turn, so we sat Henry on her lap and she showed him how to play with the toys (with just a little help from Mummy).
The day after that we went to House of Kobe, our favourite japanese restraunt, out in Hagerstown. David insisted that if the grown-ups were getting chopsticks, he should too, then amazed us all by picking up the ice-cubes in his glass completely unassisted!
Finally, just before we flew back, Matt & Erin had us all over for dinner. Erin has a long list of desserts to show off - I will remember last summer's strawberry extravaganza for a long time. This time, to go with the season, Erin made a delicious chocolate igloo cake, complete with grated white chocolate snow and a family of penguins.
