The Holidays

This last Holiday season was incredibly busy.  So busy, that after we have been home for nearly an entire month, I am just now feeling like things are normal again.  All of the suitcases are unpacked, and we are pretty much caught up on laundry.  Does that ever really happen? Really?

How was our season so busy? We went to my dear sister in-law's graduation in College Station one night, got up the next morning and drove to Dallas for my cousin's wedding. Two days later, Charlie drove to Midland for lunch, yes, lunch. That's 10 hours round trip.  The next day we flew to Colorado for 6 days. whew.  breather.  Then our flight got delayed, spent an extra night in Colorado.  Flew into Dallas on Christmas Eve Eve, drove directly 3.5 hours directly home. Stayed home for 2 nights.  Well, we hosted friends and family both of those nights. Then we went back to Dallas Christmas morning for another 2 days, and have spent every night in our own beds since.  Are you still with me? Probably not. Years later, I will look back at this and say "That was exhausting!" But thats not it, "that was so much fun!"  This holiday season was one of the best yet.  It was filled with family, filled with friends, filled with travel, filled with food. We are FULL. But ready for more soon :)



         














We had a quiet NewYear's.  We fixed a nice meal after we put
Theo down, watched the Aggie game: not so quiet, actually.
And I made it to midnight EST.

Happy 2014! It is proving itself to be a good one already.
