Merry Christmas

We made it home safely from our first WI Christmas as a married couple. We had a great, and very busy, time while we were there. Brief highlights are the Bucks game (they won), shoveling snow, going to a graduation party for a childhood friend of Steve, watching an entire season of Weeds in one day, and Christmas in Chicago with Steve's sister, parents, brother in law and the kids. Christmas was spent eating a lot of good food and playing an incredible amount of games. Olivia and Ben love to play games, including the Disney Guessing Game which Ben wanted to play whenever we were sitting down at the table to eat. Additionally, Ben and Olivia got a Wii for Christmas, so we all got a bit of an uneven upper body workout. The flights weren't so bad... no trouble with the weather heading out but we were delayed in Denver coming home. We ended up getting home a little before 2 am. UGH! But we were grateful to get home safely without any cancellations. Plus we got to spend extra time at the Denver airport which is one of the craziest airports I have ever been too. The next afternoon we went over to the Gerlt house for a belated Christmas celebration. We exchanged gifts and ate pizza, mellow and relaxed. For Christmas, I made Margey a portfolio of all of the flowers she has done for weddings and funerals, which got a perfect reaction! It was great to be able to celebrate with both of our families and friends but we are glad to be home and look forward to the New Year.
