Rest of Break

So, we had our second Christmas together and it was quite nice. It started out with some families and Father Bob enjoying Wigilia and then heading out to midnight mass. We got back and I elected to stay up and finish dishes as Stella got some sleep so she could wake up in the morning. We got up and opened gifts and had breakfast (not cold cereal, we had cinnamon buns). It was a rather camping Christmas for us, we both got gear for our upcoming trip. We watched up and then went to another couple's home for dinner with them and father followed by playing Wii.

This brings us to 4 advent dinners, 1 we survived November party, 1 court of honor/scout party, 1 Los Posada, 1 Wigilia, 1 Christmas dinner and 1 Catholic Young Adult dinner in December. (so many parties)

Well today was a quite bum around town day, but we will need to pack for our trip. Tomorrow we will clean out the car and finish getting the house in order. Then Monday we drive out to the Grand Canyon. Looking at our route we will be stopping in the Petrified Forest for our lunch break. Tuesday we will head down to the canyon floor and Wednesday we will head back up. Thursday we will return and hit Mass and casino night at the parish. So it is just a short trip, but we get to get away.

Then on Jan begins. And to start the year there will be sleeping in. And of course I will need to re-season the cast iron. 2 Jan will be the OA banquet down in El Paso. And the 4th work starts up again. So that is the plan for the rest of break. I'm sure there will be pictures posted eventually.

Oh, and Stella has determined that the AK-47 is pretty.
