The New Year!

Welcome to the blog in 2013! Woo-hoo! We've been busy. The boys are fully moved in.  As for me, I have the most important stuff here including my TV's from my place. We still we have not given up my apartment. More on all that in a later post.

Us newlyweds did our own thing for New Year's Eve.  Just a quiet evening at home.  We played games, watched a movie, and I made Brad's fave....fajitas.  We gave Simon his annual sip of champagne at midnight.  Man, he loves champagne!  He's so funny!  We tried to give some to Cody too as usual, but he acted as if we might be attempting to poison him at the stroke of midnight.  He's funny too, in a different way than Simon!

I undecorated our Christmas tree today.  Now we have a naked tree sitting in our living room.  I almost knocked the entire tree over as I was undecorating it.  I pulled on the light set that was tightly wrapped at the top causing it to bobble quite a bit.  As a result the tree now leans heavily to the right.  Oh well, Brad will haul it out tomorrow.  That was such a difficult tree to get set up that I asked Brad if  he was ready to reconsider a fake tree next year. We almost got a fake tree this year because we got the tree so late in the season we had trouble finding a real one.   

As I type this, we're watching the Cotton Bowl live from Cowboys Stadium.  Texas A&M just scored!  This is a geat match-up.  Kind of like a rivalry!  Texas teams and Oklahoma teams love to go at each other! We've looked forward to this game all week.  I usually look forward to the Fiesta Bowl since it's from my state of birth, but this year that match-up didn't interest my at all.  I get seriously irritated watching Oregon.  I don't know why but they annoy me!  Their duck looks too much like a clone of Donald Duck.  I think Donald should sue! LOL!
