How did that happen? What happened to Happy Thanksgiving??? Or Merry Christmas??? Where did the past 2 months go?
I think I seriously woke up on the 25th and thought "oh, crap, it's already Christmas. i'm totally unprepared..." There's really no excuse for this feeling - it does occur on the same day of the year every year, but nonetheless, I didn't see it coming this year.
We've been pretty consumed with moving (among other things). We spent most of November (early November) packing up the townhouse and then we officially moved in to the new house on November 21st. That was followed by Thanksgiving and a long weekend with the host family in Rochester, NY (coldest place on earth).
I think we were home for about 2 weeks in December before heading to Germany for Christmas. Great time - not terribly relaxing, although vacationing with Oliver never is... but it's always great to hang out with the family and see Oliver's friends who we don't get to hang out with enough.
We came back home on the 29th, spent a relaxing New Year's Eve with our friends Duane and Tracie, and have been getting settled (again) in the house for the past few days.
We're in the market for a big screen TV and a washing machine, so if you have any advice on either, we'd love to hear it... the internet is fantastic until you start finding all sorts of conflicting advice!
Hope you all had a great holiday and we wish you a great 2009! We have a feeling that there are great things in store for us! :)
