Where have the last few months gone?

A brief overview of our lives the past few months:
- I learned how to make my first apple pie from scratch! Thanks Ann :)
-Discovered the pain of losing co-workers and dear friends to layoffs at work (3 in my department), yes, I've been living at work.
-Attended a great seminar at the Hyatt on aging and elder care services in November.
-Isaac went to NY for a Climbing for Christ board of director meeting.
-Went to the new W hotel for a fun benefit and a much needed GNO with Anna L.
-We had our membership interview at Grace and became members at our new church. We love our new pastor and our excited to get plugged in!
-Isaac, Molly and Jamie and I spent Molly's birthday at dinner downtown and seeing Wicked! Yes, it does live up to the hype :)
-Eliana turned 2! We spent the weekend with both families and went downtown to the Macy's display- she was so cute, enjoyed every moment...I think she was on sensory overload. Gramma and Grandpa took lots of fun pics
-We checked out the new CSI exhibit at the Science Museum- so much fun, if you haven't been- go!
-Salsa dancing anyone? We taught a group of couples salsa dance! It was for their Christmas party- next time, I think Isaac and I will chat a bit more before the lesson- that way we'll be on the same dancing page!! Right honey??
-Date night to celebrate Christmas: Isaac and I went to Pazzaluna for a wonderful dinner and then off to the Ordway to see White Christmas. It was fantastic- the music, colors, and dancing. And we managed to NOT talk about Eliana, money or work :) (thanks to our couples group for the great advice!!!)
-My honey just got home from ice climbing in Sandstone- yes, he just missed the big storm.

Now we are just gearing up for the holidays!! Given my busy work schedule the past couple months I did all my Christmas shopping online- I'm hooked! No busy stores, parking, etc.
Just me in bed with my laptop :)

Merry Christmas- sorry we are not on the ball of mailing out Christmas cards this year. Next year!
