Have a great weekend!

Well, this is my last blog for the week. I had a great one. My cousin Chuck was in town and last night my friends Jen and Dave came over for dinner. Not too shabby! Tonight I head to Virginia Beach to see my Mom, and my sister and her family arrive tomorrow. I can't wait to see my neices!!

Have a safe and happy weekend!

Good times in Greece

As you probably already know, I went to Greece with my friend Sophie in April. I have finally uploaded some of the videos from our trip! Here are the links to some of our experiences, in chronological order. My personal favorites mini-movies are the Parthenon Turtule, the panoramic view of Ia in Santorini, the widow trying to sell Sophie lace in Anogia, and the ferry back to Athens.

The Miracle of Genetics

Happy Thursday everyone!

Unfortunately, I have to go to the gym, but I wanted to update the blog with a few pictures that my sister sent me today.

Almost two short months ago, my niece Kyla Anne was born. This is a video of Lauren and Kyla's first meeting.

Now, my Mom thinks that Kyla is the granddaughter in whom my late father has been partially reincarnated. I didn't believe her at first. I mean, yes, Kyla is the ONLY one in the Kennedy line who has miraculously been able to retain Dad's blue eyes, despite having a mother with brown/green eyes and father with dark brown eyes. OK, Mom, I'll give you that.

But TODAY, I saw this picture from my Sister, and now I have to admit: maybe Mom had a small point. What do you think? Does the expression match? For those of you who knew Dad, you may agree that their TV-watching-expressions bear a striking resemblance! For those of you who don't know Dad, I couldn't find a picture of Dad watching TV, so I included this picture of him from Christmas 2005 ... it's pretty close.
