The Holidays Are Over

This week officially ends the holidays for us. The kids are back in school, Tom is starting his new job (same work, just a new firm), and I am back to work as well. We partied like the best over the last few weeks. We went caroling, baked cookies, Knocked and Ran, shopped for presents, and made wish lists for Santa. Christmas was wonderful, and we played our new Wii all day long. My brother and his family visited right after Christmas and we played at Golden Gate Park, and spent a day in Monterrey.

I love Christmas, but I also love moving on from Christmas to get the New Year started. There is something about starting over that I love. I like making resolutions, re-thinking priorities and well just getting back into routine. My friend Nancy talks about how she is sad when it is time to take down the tree, but frankly, I look forward to cleaning up the mess and putting my house back together. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday, and a great New Year!
