The End of a Great Week

It's so hard to believe Christmas has come and gone. Yesterday, Kayla and I pretty much decided to just take a day and stay in our "jammies" and lay around watching movies and visiting with each other. We watched "Serendipity" and "Bella" (Have you seen that movie? Very sweet.)

We also took down all the Christmas stuff, which almost sent me spiralling into a depression. Oh, I really hate it when the tree comes down. I would keep it up all year long, but that would take away from the joy of having it up during the season.

By the end of the day, we felt a little sorry for the guys and ordered pizza and turned the TV to "Cops". (We laugh like crazy at some of the stuff people do!)

This morning we went to church and Judy took a couple of pictures of our family. Oh, how I love these people!

Then, we went to our favorite Mexican restaurant - where we eat every Sunday after church. Our waiter, Gabriel, is always our server and we've gotten to know him over the last couple of years. He brings our drinks, chips and salsa, guacamole and pica de gallo before we even ask each week. He's awesome. Last week for Christmas, he gave us our meal free of charge. This week, all five us us were there, and he surprised us with another free meal for the New Year. What a guy!

Kale and Kayla headed back to Fayetteville a couple of hours ago. It was so good having them here for these last several days, that it was HARD for me to let them go back today. They're so much fun to have around.

I hope you all had a Christmas filled with love and family and that your New Year will be happy and safe.
