Christmas Vacation

I just got home for Christmas; Steve and I are playing with my family. A few weeks ago my parents bought a Wii and I played Wii fit for the first time.

What We're up to

We have been up to a lot lately including

Going to the Rainforest Cafe with our friends Tina and Greg


Making bread*


Refinishing an end table**


Steve also finished his third semester at medical school. Get excited.


* This is a fabulous way to relieve stress at the end of the semester.
** Yes, we are doing this outside in the middle of December.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

You know, when Steve and I decided to move to Texas I was thinking I was leaving the cold weather behind. I was ready to have my Christmas 75 and sunny. Apparently not this year



I know this is bad quality, but can you see the white flecks? That would be snow, coming from the sky, in Texas. Steve noticed it first in the morning when he left for school and although I was already planning on wearing a coat to work I added a scarf and gloves.

Steve and I also decorated our house this week. We even got a Christmas tree

We were excited to graduate from the one we had last year that we put on a stool because it was only three feet tall. Steve did a fabulous job being the husband that night by carrying and setting up the tree

Okay, so our tree isn't that big, but we like it anyways.
