Well, its safe to say that I'm not too good at keeping this thing up! Nothing too exciting. I'll start in December when Ashley my gf from Chicago came to visit. We went to Washington DC to check out the sites and have an overall fabulous time!! I'm glad that I go to show her the new house, which was all decorated for Christmas, and introduce her to my baby girl Trubs! We took off Saturday morning for DC and had a great time. It was a little snowy, but we got to see the White House and a little of the Smithsonian. Then we had a fabulous dinner at a Brazilian Steakhouse. It was probably the best meal we've had in a long time! Good food, good wine, good friends, what more could you want?
After her exciting vist, Andy and I took it easy. We had a couple of work Christmas parties during the month, which were a lot of fun. Then we just settled in until the big day, Christmas!! We didn't make it back to IL this year, but we had fun with our own little celebration. After dinner with friends Christmas Eve, we came home and opened presants, just the 3 of us. Lots of lovely presents, I love Christmas!! Then, we tucked ourselves and little infant puppy into bed because my Aunt and Uncle and 3 little kids. It was fun to be around little ones on Christams (it was also great to be in Charlotte to go shopping the day after Christmas!!) Andy even took me to lunch to my favorite resturant, The Cheesecake Factory; he even braved the line at Crate and Barrell with me to help me shop!! Overall we had a great holiday, nice and relaxing!!
I spent the week between Christmas and New Years relaxing!! Luckily, I had the entire week off, so I slept in late, watched lots of movies, and did a little house work! It was great. NYE we went to dinner with our friends the Emlen's and Roosa's. We had a nice dinner and then headed home. we really tried to stay up to midnight, but as with last year did not quite make it, next year for sure!!!
Now that the holidays are over, its back to the real world. Not much besides work and taking care of the puppy. The Roanoke office had a sweet little addition last week, Nick and Selina welcomed their baby boy, Anthony. We've already been over to see him, and he is just adorable (but don't expect any babies from us anytime soon!!) Also, the Roosa's found out that they will be having a boy in June, lots of little ones!!
As boring as that sounds, thats a recap of our life!
