Goodbye Christmas

by Dave

January is flying by and it’s about time to shut down the Christmas Letter. We’ve already taken down our tree and the apartment is back to normal. Time for the last remnants of the holiday season to be put away for another year. This is just a heads up; the Christmas Letter page will be disappearing on the 15th. Thanks for checking it out.

Holidays Survived

by Dave

Well, we’ve managed to survive another busy holiday season. Sadly, the retail biz is in full swing for the next event: Valentine’s Day. The good news is I’m enjoying a late Christmas present to myself: some new tunes courtesy of BMG. Mae’s new album, Singularity, is pretty good. I’m on my second listen and really liking it. I would highly recommend Mae, especially their second album, The Everglow. It’s great pop/rock music.

Christmas Present

by Dave

I received my Christmas present from my parents on Saturday. Mom and Brianna took me out to eat at Red Lobster for lunch then they took me to the Ordway to see ‘Sound of Music’. The play was fantastic!! The acting was wonderful, the songs were amazing and the company was awesome. I had such a wonderful time hanging out with my mom and sister watching one of our favorite movies being acted out on the stage. This was an unknown fact to me, but the ‘Sound of Music’ is a real live story. I didn’t know this until reading through the program given to me at the play that the Von Trapp family was a real family going through a tough situation in Austria. I’m intrigued to read and learn more about this family.

We also took the Burlingame/Paulson Kid picture on Saturday.

Christmas Letter

by Dave

In lieu of sending a Christmas letter to everybody this year, we’ve posted it here. You’ll find the link to it in the top right corner of the page. Thanks for looking.

Christmas Tree

by Dave

We have had our Christmas tree up for almost 2 weeks now but I wanted to share a picture of the tree with everyone. I love our tree. We bought a fake tree our first Christmas together as a married couple and have been very pleased with it since. You may notice that there is not anything on the top of the tree, there’s a reason for this, we haven’t found anything we like. We are still looking but haven’t been drawn to or attached to anything in particular. Hopefully soon. :) Thank you for enjoying our tree with us.
