Happy New Year!

Okay, I don't really have anything exciting to post about, but I decided that for those of you who do check in on me occasionally, that "countdown to Christmas" post is getting a bit old.

We had a wonderful Christmas spent in Utah with Michael's family. Christmas morning was a bit crazy with 12 adults and eight grandkids, but it was a lot of fun. We may have ended up with a few presents that belonged to someone else, but we're okay with it.

For New Years, Michael had the idea of having a "Panda" themed party with the kids. We had a great time eating Panda Express and watching "Kung Fu Panda". It was a lot of fun. (I would share some pictures, but Michael has the camera)

Our poor puppy had another accident and cut his leg really bad. He came into the house with puddles of blood and had a cut that went through the muscle. We called around to different vets to find out it would be about $500 to stitch him up. -So, we decided it would be best if Michael did it. Heck, he pulled my wisdom tooth out in our kitchen, why not sew up our dog? So he did and did a great job (with the help of an army vet friend via phone and email pictures). Our dog is healed and doing well! Hopefully no more broken bones or stitches!
