Snowboarding

Terry, Joe and I hit a nearby ski slope to do a little snowboarding on Saturday, and it felt good to get on a board again. The sun was out, but it was still pretty cold and windy. We thought it would be a good way to start the new year out. It will be hard to put in a full week's work starting tomorrow though! Especially because I'm a tad bit sore. I hope you all had a good time ringing in the new year!

The holidays

I just got back yesterday morning from visiting Colorado for Christmas. Terry came with me for a few days, and then flew home just in time to be with his family on the Cape. It was nice to see everyone, and we made some significant progress on the wedding front. Above are two pics from the jaunt home: one of my parents' view of Pikes Peak, and another of my 3-year-old cousin Felix on Christmas. What a cool truck! 

Christmas spirit

Terry put up our Christmas "tree" this weekend as we're getting into the holiday spirit. I saw this idea in Domino magazine, and we were just trying to decide whether to go get a tree or not. We like to get potted trees and then plant them afterward, but they keep dying, so this tree was a perfect alternative. Very festive! 

This last week should be very busy, and then we're flying out to Colorado to see my family for a few days at Christmas. Hopefully there won't be any flying headaches, and it will be good to see everyone. If I don't post before then (and I haven't been so good at keeping up with the blog), happy holidays!
