I've had little incentive to blog about the holidays because my sisters out-blogged me...

Hence the following links to their blog entries about Christmas:

The weekend before our DeSutter Christmas we had an early celebration with Jon's family.

We had a fun weekend in Dallas that included a pizza outing with extended family, a trolley ride through downtown Dallas, wonderful dinner at Morton's Steakhouse, and Christmas fun.

We got some really special gifts... two of which are on their way... I let you know about them in March when we get them!!!

--------

We had some friends over my parents house for New Years Eve, it was an exciting night of games like pool, poker, dutch blitz, mexican train and catch phrase.

Our friends slept over and we had a nice New Years Day breakfast together.

-------

Jon and I decided to take advantage of my parents beautiful home on the golf course for an extended weekend. Jon took Friday off and we relaxed our 2nd anniversary away. Perfect!------

Now, we are back to work and back into the swing of things.

I've started my countdown for spring break already!
