Mark's homecoming and our vacation

After the Holidays

Well, it's a real Monday again and Mark was off to a regular work day :( I cannot complain b/c he was home this year! My sister and bro-in-law came in on the 24th and my parents flew in on Christmas day, so we had a full house for a while. After a traditional dinner and opening presents (then playing the Wii!) on Christmas night, we got up early and drove up to Vermont on the 26th. It was beautiful...just like they say in "White Christmas". While Mark took Meg and Damien snowboarding, I went snowshoeing with Mom and Dad. It was great to have them here.
I guess we were feeling a little too calm when everyone left, so we threw together a New Year's Eve party. It was a lot different than our annual bonfires in GA, but still fun--thanks to Jake and Erica's new Rockband!
Notice I added a Facebook badge...I have finally joined and will attempt to keep up with both sites.
Happy 2009! Mark's resolved to not eat fast food (especially for lunch) and my resolution sounds a little weird...I am resolving not to go up or down the stairs empty handed (I think more things will get put away and cleaned that way!).
