Happy New Year everyone! This pic is from late night, Christmas Eve. We had returned from mass and a late night dinner. We were tired and a little gitty. Anyway, we had a great Christmas break and hope you did too. The girls had sleepovers, we watched movies and played a lot of Guitar Hero World Tour, and Jeff's parents visited the weekend after Christmas. Ashley also participated in a charity basketball tournament. Jeff even took some time off! He did sneak in the creation of a presentation for work in the early morning hours as we girls slept in. But he really did play and relax with the kids. I'm so proud of him!The girls went back to school today, dreading every minute of it, but they came home ready to face another semester of homework and tests. Report cards come out in the next couple of days, but no worries there. wink wink (UPDATE: both got straight A's)
Oh, and how many of your are on a diet like us? I hate to use that word, diet. You know, it's really just a healthy lifestyle. har har I bought Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred dvd. Wow were my muscles sore after the first workout but after 4 days, it's getting better. No more cookies, cakes, candy, or alcohol... just clean livin'. My short term goal is to get back to the weight that I always called my "won't exceed" weight and then there will be another 5 lbs. at least.
We send our best wishes to you for a wonderful 2009.
