Well, by now you've all gotten off to a start on the new year of 2007. I hope this year is a great one for all of you. We spent our new year's eve at home with a little party which included family... AJ & Bonnie, John & Evelyn, and Don & Isy. We played lots of card games and some played Horseopoly which is basically the horse version of monopoly. We were in a tough game of Shanghi Rook which took us until almost 2am. I can't remember the last time I stayed up that late! Of course when I went to bed I couldn't immediately fall asleep. The kids stayed up until 2 as well. They thought that was pretty cool. We got up around 8:30 to go out for breakfast and sent Bonnie & AJ off for their 10 hour trip back to MN. The rest of the day we spent "recuperating" from our late night. Nate came over and played with Quinn for a while.
The kids were at 3 different homes this week because they are still out on break (thanks Karla, Lisa and B & P!). They were happy to play with their friends. Katie and Madison made pots on her new Christmas pottery wheel, Beppe gave the kids their first art lesson, painting an apple scene (I'm so impressed!) and Quinn went to a basketball camp with Brock this afternoon. They definitely haven't been bored. I'm so thankful that I had their first week of their break off to share in the fun too.
It was a rough jump back into work this week. I was served a subpeona on Tuesday at 4pm to appear in court to testify on behalf of a patient going through a divorce... this Friday!... the kid's last day off! Boy was I ever mad! To make a long story short, I had a meeting with the hospital's lawyer in the afternoon today and she got me out of it... because they didn't give me 30 days of a notice! I was so thankful!!!
Well, Madison had Flames practice tonight. She hasn't ran like that for 2 weeks now so she is already saying that her body is aching! It's amazing how fast you loose what you work so hard to gain.
I hope things are going well for you. We've enjoyed reading many of your Christmas cards and letters this year.
Love to all, Leah
