Christmas generates enough packaging anyway that we don't need to put one more disposable layer on it. Bridgit's family has used fabric b... http://tomcook.net/blog/?itemid=545 It's safe to say Amelia is moving. Tom put her in the middle of the quilt, and here she is... photolink (Awesome quilt made by Erich Harbowy's mother. Thanks!!!)

The story is kinda really depressing... http://tomcook.net/blog/?itemid=538 I had posted a while back about what our new car should be. C&D has a new article that shares some of my frustration about the lack of wagons and specifically the lack of hot wagons.
