Weekend Update

19/385: Already Driving...

We got to spend some fun time with the Rossettini family on Saturday. It was a beautiful day so we took some time to hang out in their backyard. Little Hannah is getting so big already and is a recent new owner of a sporty car!



20/386: Fun With Santoro

I got a chance to spend a little time with the RA (Resident Assistant) staff of one of our residence halls. Their Hall Director Krystal asked that I take some photos of them as a staff. They are a really fun group of students. I snapped some photos of smaller groups that I really liked but thought this group shot was fun too since they were good sports about getting up in the tree.



21/387: What's In A Name

Since Eddie and I are still without a name for our kiddo (I know it's only been four days since we found out it's a boy) I'm on the lookout for names. I'm borrowing a family geneaology book that traces the lineage of the Stark family, which is on my dad's side. The book is really awesome compilation of history starting with ancestors in the mid-1400s. My favorite part of the stories are in the 1700s when the family came over to the colonies. John Stark, of "Live Free or Die" fame, falls in this period and there are a lot of interesting stories. I love the little notes by some of the names including Thomas Jefferson Cameron. SHE was given the name before she was born and her "stubborn, Scotch father refused to chang it when the child proved to be a girl." They called her "Jeffie."



Once the book hits the kids born around 1900 I lose interest. Old stories are much better than the newer ones....i.e. falling off a horse on Long Island beats graduating from Syracuse with a degree in System Engineering.
