Christmas travels - Old Friends

Before we got underway (a word I am now all too familiar with as a Navy wife), we stopped by Bernadette's to give our Christmas wishes to her, her mom, and baby Peter. Then it was off to Maryland to attend Patty's Novena party, where I caught up with all of my old co-workers from Catholic Charities, and then to Janet, Andy and Leila's house, where we stayed for two nights. Ayris drove up to Janet's with her son Aden on Friday, and the kids had a ball playing together and us moms had a nice time catching up (although I feel like I didn't get to catch up as much as I would have liked, since I now have 2 toddlers in my charge). We returned the visit and went to Ayris' house for lunch on Saturday, and then Nora, Caroline and I took off for Dundalk, where we joined the rest of the Guilford girls at Kathleen and Pat's house and had a fun reunion. Kay's husband Paul managed to snag a photo of all the old roommate and our kids -- we're quite a group, now! In the photo, from left to right, are Kay and 6 month old Audrey, Kathleen and almost 10 month old John, yours truly, and Joanna with 4 year old Daniel and 2 year old Joseph.
