Christmas (a couple weeks later)

Marcus has gone to Dallas for a Cowboys game and left me all alone. So far my day has consisted of donating blood, going to Target, watching some E!, and going to the library. Exciting stuff-I know.  I thought this might be a good time to update the old blog.

 We had a nice Christmas.  I really enjoyed decorating our house. It was the first Christmas that we haven't lived in an apartment.  We left Tulsa just a few hours before the blizzard started on Christmas Eve.  Nothing especially exciting happened in Arkansas, but Marcus and I are always so glad to see both of our families and just hang out at their houses.  We babysat my parents' dog Buckaroo while they went to Kentucky on Christmas Day and our nephews enjoyed playing with him. He ended up in nearly all of our Christmas pictures.

Our New Year's was probably the most uneventful one I've ever had. None of our friends were getting together so we just went out to dinner and were asleep by 10:30. That's what happens when you get old and all your friends have kids I guess.

Marcus recently accepted a new job with his company. It's still in Tulsa, but just a couple of miles from where he works now and gives him better potential for getting promoted in the future. This means we should be here for at least another year or so. We've renewed the lease on our house and it's nice to know we won't have to worry about moving again too soon.
