Thursday

Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays. We finally got our tree up last night. It is a beauty. We are a little light on ornaments but I like the idea of collecting meaningful ones over time as opposed to going out and buying a bunch. Basically, we have a tree in the middle of our living room with lights on it. I was up late last night trying to get our Christmas cards done. I am not that pleased with them but they are going to have to do. When you choose to always do your cards yourself, there are going to be some disasters along the way. I fear this may be one. I am going out for beers with some guys from work tonight. About time, I went out with the boys from work for a few. Lena and I don't have any plans for the weekend besides finishing up our decorating, shopping and cards. Sunday night some friends from Sweden who are moving back soon are coming over for dinner. Tuesday night Lena and I are going to dinner with two other couples that we hang out with a lot. Not sure when we are leaving for Michigan but we are leaning towards Friday. I think we will return on Monday. Hope everyone has a great weekend.
