Happy New Year!

Today, I am back at work after a nice long break. So long that I was ready to be back at work, so nice that today at work I'm so bored and can hardly keep my eyes open.

Adam officially graduated and we survived the "attack of the parents" as Jen likes to call it. It was not to bad because both sets of parents got hotel rooms.

For Christmas, we decided to stay in Waco. After being surrounded by family for graduation, we thought it best to just stay home this year. Although I admit that Christmas really didn't feel like Christmas at all to me. Maybe it is because we slept until we wanted to get up rather than having to get up really early, and we ate normal amounts of food instead of massive amounts!

But the week between Christmas and New Year's was full of lots of sleeping in, shopping, finally building adam's desk and working on children's church/sunday school stuff. We bought a new dining room table from World Market (it was half off- way too good a deal to pass up).

For New Year Eve we had some friends over, it was nice and low-key and Winston didn't do too bad, although I think he handled his first meeting with a kid pretty well-- I think he was amazed that people could be that small. Speaking of Winston he got this strange purple squeaky toy for Christmas and he loves this thing ~ he is captivated by it, I call it Big Purple.

New Year's Day we had dinner with friends at Tom, Craig & Drew's place. Beth & Tom went all out and there was a ton of yummy veggies, it was great and helped us to remember why we decided to call Waco our home.
