HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
We hope everyone had a great new years eve. Mike and I went over to a family in the church's house (the Lee's). They are in our married couples Bible study as one of the mentor couples and we have really enjoyed getting to know them over the past year and a half. For the past 10 years or so they have always done a new years eve party so they were well prepared, even having their own custom built dance floor (they built themselves). I really enjoyed dancing and getting to know people from the church in a different environment. Mike is not much of a dancer and I think I got asked 10 times why he wasnt out there with me. But next year Christ (Lee) said he wouldnt let Mike come if he wouldn't dance but somehow I highly doubt that will happen. But you never know as my friend Sara Jane's husband was dancing alot and she said he was just like Mike until 2 years ago.
Mike and I did not get there until 10:30 as we stayed in the Zaxby's an hour past closing time to try and watch as much of the Clemson game as possible, only to get to the Lee's and see it was on there. Oh well it was quite hilarious at Zaxbys because the manager was so nice to us and just kept letting us stay there as the employees mopped the floor. And when we went to finally leave he was like ya'll can stay we are still in the back doing things. Needless to say we love Zaxby's even more now. Also we were the only people eating in Zaxby's the entire 3 hours we were there! It must not be a popular new years eve place.
Mike and I are glad to be back in KY but not so glad about the weather as the snow is coming and it is in the teens outside. We are planning on seeing National Treasure 2 this afternoon and then watching some of the games this evening. Checkers is his normal wild self and I think he is having trouble adjusting back to less people and a smaller space but we let him play in the real attic (not our apt) and I think he enjoyed that. We used to not let him go back there, but we decided that maybe it wouldn't be so bad. There are also a few pictures of our Christmas at the Caldwells and the Adams (sorry they are not in order for those people that have blogger thoroughly figured out, I am not sure how to get them in order)
