Where did all my time go??

Wow...it's been a month since I posted. I have NO idea where all my time went. Christmas, starting back at work, New Year's, game nights, WoW nights, yeah...I don't seem to know where it all went. Here's a *very* quick update (and I promise I'll try to get pictures later).

We started our new Christmas traditions this year. We got together with my brothers and sisters (all who could) on Christmas Eve for dinner, presents, and all around family togetherness. It was a lot of fun to be together. As always, we really missed those who weren't there. One of these days we'll all be together again. I'm counting on it!

Christmas morning, I made the rounds with my parents. Wow, could I feel any more pathetic? I'm going to be the psycho aunt Coco who has nothing better to do for Christmas day than tag along with Grandma and Grandpa. It was nice to see the kids again, though (even though I had just seen them the night before). It was fun to see excitement on Christmas morning :-)

Mandy and Courtney came over a couple of days after Christmas to help me clear out my office. We got TONS done, but I still have a lot to do. It's always fun to just push through some cleaning with some nice good help.

I went back to work on New Year's Eve. I was SO not ready. Even though I had just spent 3 weeks out of the country...it didn't feel like I had been off of work for long enough! The first day was pretty easy, though.

I spent New Year's Eve with Julie and Roger and some members of Roger's family up at their house. We had a lot of fun with dinner, playing games, and just talking. Julie and I went outside and did fireworks at midnight (which was HILARIOUS when we came inside and saw the 3 guys hanging out in the living room watching out the window).

New Year's Day, we went to Stan and Sharon's to hang out. It was a LOT of fun. Becky, Courtney, and I shared the kid's table with Dominic (pictures still to come) while some of the other kids were swimming. It was then that I was convinced to make dinner and plan games and stuff for a double date for Courtney and Becky. More on this to come later.

Ok, at least I'm caught up to New Year's Day :-) A lot more has happened since then, but I'm far too exhausted. With my traveling to DC on Sunday for eCommerce...I have a LOT to do before then. I'll try to get a little more info in where I can, though :-)

I am glad you finally wrote on your blog because everytime I checked and you had not updated, I figured I didn't need to because you hadn't. You lead a busier life than I do. I have a hard time keeping up with you. Don't forget to write about your latest news!!! Love you
