Merry Christmas everyone!  We sent out a few hard copies this year, but I would like to be as environmentally friendly as possible and send you this holiday note.

So here is what’s happening:

We were all sick the last few weeks with the girls getting the worst of it (RSV).   We had close to 20″ of the snow the last few days which made shoveling our 20 degree pitch driveway a whole lot of fun.  Hampton ended the first half of his preschool year with a very 4 year old skit which included the teacher singing and the kids wondering why they were not able to eat cookies until she was done   Gavin is coming into his own and is a very talkative 2 year old (though he takes a bit of time to warm up to people unlike his brother).  Work is going very well for me at MathWorks and Carrie is meeting lots of new moms here in Milford. We are looking forward to having Dolly and Rick for our first ever Christmas at home.  We are also expecting some old friends to join us at New Years.  All in all this has been an exciting and busy year for our family and with a new house and two new children it has been nothing short of eventful.  I will get plenty of pictures up by the new year, but until then have a very happy and safe holiday.  I wish you all the best! You deserve it.

Because you guys are awesome. The family is doing great however this post is about you, my friends, family, and random readers. We have received an outpouring of support these past few weeks and it is nothing short of amazing. It feels good to be loved and to have people care so much about your little corner of the universe. It was pointed out to me by my best friend Chris that people care not because they have to but because they want to. That people want to be connected through experiences similar or not and that emotions and feelings are common amongst all. So thanks again and perhaps you can pass a bit of that love on to the next person who needs a little boost with a smile, hello, or attaboy. I know I sure will.

Kristina’s daughter Gabriella was baptised on January 5th, 2008. Pictures of the event are up in the gallery. Enjoy!

Democrat & Chronicle: High School Sports

“Andrew Kuter and Nathan French each won a pair of individual races during Pittsford’s convincing 113-73 win over rival Fairport at Mendon.”

“Kuter, a junior at Pittsford Sutherland, beat the state meet cut times during his victories in the 50- 22.52 seconds and 100-yard freestyle 49.66 races.”

“Pittsford’s 200 medley and 200 freestyle relays also hit state “magic” times with Kuter’s help. Matt Lobban, Kenny Pink, McManus and Kuter swam the 200 medley in 1:40.54. Kuter, Jim Prezzano, Pink and French covered the 200 freestyle in 1:29.99.”

Just a reminder that my brother kicks butt and has times that I and most of my former teammates could only dream of. Good show bro…keep up the good work.

Gavin is now almost four weeks old and all is well at the Kaye-Kuter household. Just wanted to add this little update and also to say congrats to my sister…her wedding went off without a hitch.
