Christmas Recap

We had a great Christmas this year. During our time off, we had a great mix of socializing, relaxing alone and finishing some projects (including cleaning out the basement and making a huge trip to Goodwill on Christmas Eve). On Christmas Eve, we pulled out the new china and made a great Italian dinner, then watched some movies. We spent Christmas day alone with the furbabies (including Valentine), except for a few hours at the Carusos' annual holiday open house.

Wednesday, we headed up to Edgerton to spend time with Kevin's family. We made a trip to Ikea to get what we needed to finish up the kitchen (more to come on that from Kevin). And we celebrated with both immediate family and the entire Whitman extended family. We came home Saturday night, so we had a few days to chill and get some things done before returning to work. Oh, and for New Year's Eve, we hung out with Matt and Amanda. They made lots of yummy munchies which we ate while we played games and watched Dick Clark. And we made a lot of noise at midnight, which was unusual and very fun.

Next, we have Kevin's staff's holiday party at our house Saturday night, then we'll officially de-holiday the house on Sunday.

Sounds busy yet fun. Sorry about Valentine's bad behavior, but thanks for keeping her!

WOW Kevin. You have turned into quite the Project Man. Your work is very meticulous. I am anxious to see it up-close!

Good Morning you party animals!
I am sure the Fifth Third gang enjoyed your hospitality, and you are looking forward to putting it away for another year.
