Back to Blogging

Here is a picture of our little blue eyed guy. Looks like he really is going to have blue eyes! Cannot believe he is nearing 10 months old!

I have been wanting to get back to this blog, but many days I just don't want to be on my computer once I get home from work! So...I am recommitting to the blog (not that I think a ton of people read it, but it does force me to record things from our life!)

For a quick update, we have had a great first few months of 2011. Matt and I got a little vacation to Las Vegas to watch our Zags win the WCC and Colin has had a lot of grandparent time, since we are lucky enough to have grandparents babysitting while we are at work!

I have started a new job at Deloitte - I will be doing the campus recruiting and I am so excited! Matt is doing great at Amazon and we are all 3 looking forward to some better weather :)

New Year's Eve!

We had a great time on New Year's eve with the Murrays. We went to the Garden d'Lights in Bellevue and then back to their house for crab and fondue - yummy!
We don't have a lot of pictures, but here are a few from the light show!

Christmas!!

As many of you know, I LOVE Christmas.....I love Christmas music (usually my brothers and parents call to let me know when they start playing it on 106.9) I love Christmas decorations, parties, wrapping presents, everything!

I think I am going to love Christmas even more every year with a kid. We had a great first Christmas with Colin. We got to spend a lot of time with family and friends and mainly got to spend almost 2 weeks unplugged from work and together.

Here are a few pictures from Christmas 2010.

Some of Colin's favorite gifts

The biggest stuffed animal at Toys R Us - Thank you Kelly!

Definitely more interested in the wrapping paper than the gifts!

Santa Pictures 2010

We had a great time visiting Santa this year. We went to Bellevue Square and met with my mom and dad, Kelly, Sean and Sean's girlfriend Jessi. Thankfully we had so many people to keep Colin entertained for the hour and a half wait to see the Big Guy!

Colin actually liked Santa and immediately started pulling on his beard.

It took a few rounds of "The Wheels on the Bus" to get him to look ahead and smile, but finally! What a cute picture - Santa looks a little bewildered though....

Just a picture

I just love this picture! Stay tuned a little later this week for a posting and picture of our visit with Santa!

You're So Vain

We have found the answer to the age-old question of who Carly Simon wrote "You're So Vain" about.....You guessed it - our one and only Colin Sullivan!


You had one eye in the mirror as - you watched yourself gavotte.




I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee, clouds in my coffee!
