Merry Christmas

christmastree

Our tree this year.

I hope everyone is having a beautiful holiday season surrounded by family and friends.

My family normally celebrates by spending copious amounts of time with the many extended family members that live all over the Northern Virginia area, and this year won’t be any different– I’m off to Nativity Church for an evening Mass (Aimee’s performing), and then we’ll catch the tail end of dinner and dessert at my grandparents’.

Merry Christmas and happy 2009, from me to you.  I’m fortunate to have you in my life, regardless of who you are or why you’re reading this.

Best wishes for the days to come!



Animoto on iPhone

Know what’s pretty cool?  The new Animoto iPhone application.  It lets you snap 8 to 16 photos with your camera, select a pre-loaded music track, produce a brief yet snazzy slideshow, all in less than five minutes.

Here’s a sample I created while doing some last-minute Christmas shopping in Borders today.  It’s like citizen journalist meets Target commercial!

(Thanks to TechCrunch for letting me know about this before I even got out of bed.)
