Finally
After see other people posting about the New Year, I figured I should jump on the band wagon and stop avoiding my blog. Well, its not that I really am avoiding it, I just can't blog at work, and that was when I normally would blog at my old job. One resolution for 2007, try to improve on my blogging frequency! I'll try, but I make no promises!
Anyway, as for the holidays, we spent a good chunk of it traveling around Florida. We left VA around 2pm on Thursday, Dec. 21 and headed to Jacksonville FL to stay with my parents and to visit with Tysen's dad. We were in Jacksonville from late Thursday night to Sunday morning, when we traveled to Orlando to have a family Christmas with my mom's sister and their family. Then, Sunday evening we drove to St. Petersburg FL to spend time with Tysen's mom and brother. We stayed there until Tuesday Dec. 26 around noon and then headed back to Jax to go to a mini/imprompto high school reunion. We couldn't stay long, as we started our trek back to VA on Tuesday night. I drove until about 1:30AM when I pulled over at a hotel in Florence SC to spend the night. On Wednesday morning we got up and drove to Williamsburg to meet up with Tysen's grandmother and other family on his dad's side. We stayed with them from lunch through to dinner when we finally got in the car and finished the drive home. Tysen and I then both went to work on Thursday, and I skipped out Friday to run some necessary errands.
That brings us to New Year's weekend which was pretty uneventful for the two of us. Since we spent so much time traveling and little time relaxing over Christmas weekend, we spend most of the New Year's weekend planted on the futon either playing video games or reading. The only productive thing done was re-financing our car loan (Oh yeah, have I mentioned that we got a new car! A 2007 Toyota Camry in dark metallic blue - very pretty!) and finding us a new place to live, which was all done on Friday when I took my day off work.
So, this leads in to our other news, which is that we are moving! Yipee! We are moving into a rental townhome in Alexandria next month, so we'll be quite busy packing things up. Fortunately, we have most of the month of February to move, although we'll have to pay two rents for that month. We'll be sure to update you all on the new place so you can come to our "Check out our new place" party sometime in March (hopefully!)
Well, that's it for me. Hope all is well with everyone out there! Hope you all are having a great start to 2007!
