The Best of 2008

Today I happened to glance at the archives section

of the blog and realized that I have ended the year of 2008

with exactly 150 posts.

I am not sure whether I should be proud of my determination

or apologetic that I have wasted so much of your time

with my nonsensical rants.

Either way, I have decided to celebrate the birthday of the blog with

a couple of my favorite pictures of Orin

that have not yet made a post.

I have not shared these pictures because they were part 

of Orin's Christmas present to his grandparents,

 a calendar titled 12 Months of Orin,

and I wanted the pictures to be a surprise on Christmas.

Now that all of the grandparents have received their gifts,

there is no reason not to share them.

All of these pictures came from a series of photo shoots

that we did during the week we were snowed in

Some of the pictures were holiday themed...

(did I mention how bored we were?)

Others were just plain embarrassing

And some were...

well, I am not sure exactly what you would call this one...

There you have it, 

goodbye 2008!

Here's to 2009!

Happy New Year!
