it's great going from the country which is quite and relaxed and snow filled to being in the city and wrestling with my niece and nephew...and of course jenica and i both love the face to face conversations we get with parents and siblings no matter how great skype may be
crazy to think that we are just a little more than 24 hours away from a new year starting....i don't think i have ever been as expectant for a new year to start than this one. Not b/c this year has been bad, but b/c i am more excited than ever to see what God has in store
i am still hoping to get a "favorite shots of the year" post in, even though that may land a few days in to 2010....we shall see though
here are some more from chicago - bowling and korean bbq
the routine:
shove
watch intently
keep watching intently
celebrate with dance despite the outcome - then repeat
mom and dad!
korean bbq time!
they brought out tiny marshmallows for the kids at the end of dinner...it was great! inspired a run to the store for s'mores back at home in the fireplace
finally some fun with lights on the drive back from dinner (i wasn't driving - btw)
