Home for Christmas

The Pirates together again.  at least for a short time.  Too bad we forgot to take this before Kathryn left.  I was sad we didn't.

Yes that is whipped cream all over my face.  I only signed up for the mouth.  

Duane went a little overboard.

Janet and Duane had all the party gear.  I look so pretty in that mask!

Happy New year!

This was the only Picture of me at the Ekstrom Christmas party because I took all the other pictures.  Had to document the fact that I was actually there.

Miles was the winner of the white elephant gifts!  The Mansie.  A Onesie for a man.  Thanks Linds you win the game!

I am very happy that we were able to see my grandparents while we were there.

It is hard to pick pictures that don't have anyone's children in them.  We did our best to pick some good ones. 

Michael and Melinda's visit

This is only a few pictures of a concert fun filled weekend.  We went to the Iridium Club to see Chuck Mangione and two Rob Mathes Christmas concerts.  All were amazing, and we got so much snow that weekend it was crazy.

Christmas in NYC

Yeah!  Nat made her own Christmas wreath.  It turned out ok.  It smelled amazing though!

We even walked down to Rockefeller to take our picture by the tree.  

Yeah Pam and Derek Came to Visit!

You've Gotta Love a Giant Toy Store. I think this T-Rex is going to pee on me! He didn't, it was close though.



The Top of the Rock. Yeah Baby now that's high. You can see the Empire State building.


That must be a great steak!

Summer Fun!

Yep that's Columbia University Campus. It is much cooler than NYU's non-campus.

Nat by the "Friends" fountain. We finally found it after living here a year.

Miles and Nat with Chuck Mangione the famous flugelhorn player. Not to be confused with a trumpet.

Yep that's a band playing on Ocean Grove main street. It was awesome and Miles looks HOT!

Miles and I Went to Ocean Grove, NJ for a little beach adventure. It was a good time

That's me on my cell phone on a bike ride in central park. Yea I love living in Manhattan!

yes I am finally adding some stuff from our summer vacations and wanderings in NYC.

See, we do look a little alike if we are all together. This is all of the original Ekstrom girls. Now we aren't called that any more, and we have been replaced or maybe just added on to. There are new generation Ekstrom Girls. Joey and Linds are making sure of that.

I tried so hard to get it all over my face before Miles took the picture and it still didn't work. I look way too clean but none the less I love Smores!
