Happy New Year, Again.

I've been meaning to write a little recap of post-Christmas happenings, and I just haven't had a second to do it. So here are just a few highlights. The boys and me.

Birthday Recap

On Saturday, I celebrated birthday 51. I worked the night before, so I came home and literally went to bed. Sam and I had plans, so I wanted to get some sleep before we left.
