Garfield Commune Reunion

Next up, Eric and Julia were here!  They stayed for a few days en route to a wedding in Philly.  It was really fun to do baby and kid things with them since they're in full-fledged expecting-parent mode now. 

We took Henry out to another farm, hoping to get some pumpkin-patch pictures.  No pumpkins, but it did have quite a few animals, some trippy fairy tale houses, and a giant wooden pirate ship.

We posed for our annual photo on the steps (per Carol's request, like the dutiful children we are). 

Every batch of my photos has one like this.

Not bad, but Henry looks like an extra
from Children of the Corn.

Julia is losing it.  Henry, still creepy.

Things are not going well.

Great, now Izzy is here.

Merry Christmas!  Here's a picture of Izzy's butt.
Julia has lost her sh*t.
Henry wants to poke his eye out.

Izzy's gone.  Now we can see
Karl's giant naked foot again!

We got ONE decent picture of all of us, thanks to some heavy cropping.  Here is what you can expect on your Reitz family Christmas cards:

Nonetheless, it's fun to document the changes from the original photo.  Now there are 6.5 of us in the picture instead of 4!
