"A successful man is someone who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much, who has gained the respect of others and the love of children; who leaves the world better than he found it; who never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty ; who always looked for the best in others and gave the best he had. "
- a variation of "Success" by Ralph Waldo Emerson

2010 into 2011

Holiday comes and goes but we managed to attend two parties in friends' houses and had two parties in our house. Plus, Alvin and Mason had two wonderful "big sisters" staying over for several days! What a holiday treats for the boys!

We also visited the annual DC Botanic Garden display, a unique exhibit with train show and replicas of DC and world famous buildings and monuments. It is amazing to see that all replicas were made in real plant material as you will see in the pictures followed. If you miss this year's display, you have a year to regret!


No worries...they are not sitting on cactus

Do you see lotus roots in the picture followed?

How many landmarks can you name?
