Couple days after Christmas

Its the Saturday after Christmas and what a Christmas it was; we enjoyed having our first Christmas with just the two of us. Usually we are fighting the traffic, traveling across the country to see our families and getting back late to only return early to work. Don't get me wrong I love my family, but traveling has become such a hassle anymore and not too mention we got so much snow the Seattle airport ran out of de-icer and no flights were leaving, so our flight may have canceled anyways. So we enjoyed a nice day out on the slopes of Crystal Mountain with our friends, Luke, Abby, Callie and Kevin. I was feeling a lot better to the start of this season then how I ended last year, but then again I have a great, patient teacher. ;) We exchanged gifts on Christmas Eve, shhh....don't tell the family and just had a day in the snow for Christmas. For Christmas Eve we had the future Van Dorstons over for dinner and drinks; it was good times as always. Friday we headed out for all you can eat sushi at Sushi Town and then hit the movies, only to laugh our butts off at Four Christmases--if you haven't seen it, I would recommend it for a good laugh. We were going to try and attempt the mall today, but we all know how I am in busy places, so we made a quick trip to return a few things and then headed home to lounge. We are getting ready for soccer season to begin and have a game tomorrow; we will see how things go--hopefully no broken bones this year! Lets keep our fingers crossed :) Things are going well for us, now all we have to worry about is what to plan for our fun New Years Eve! Wow, such a hard life we live...Happy Holidays to all, we hope you enjoyed your Christmas as much as we did.
