New Years

It's hard to believe that 2011 is coming to a close. There are already things to look forward to in 2012. We start the year with our move to Virginia and looking for a new home. It will be nice to be back in the states, but hate the whole moving process. In the next few weeks we are having our house packed up and will be living with loaner furniture for several weeks. Then onto our trip back to the states with a 2 1/2 year old. Don't get me wrong I love my son, and I love to travel, but traveling with a toddler is not fun! Then we will be visiting family, picking up our new car, and finding a new home. Once things settle down we will be celebrating Braydon's third birthday. Then I guess it will be time for me to find a job. After not working for three years I'm not really itching to get back into the workforce. However, I did just finish my MBA and look forward to putting that to good use.

Christmas

Up until the week of Christmas the weather was nice and it didn't feel like the holidays. I decided to make all of my Christmas cookies in 5 days! Needless to say I was in the kitchen every day and made way too many cookies for three people. Christmas Eve we spent the morning with some friends and the evening at home.  On the morning of Christmas Braydon woke up wanting to know what Santa brought him. He got a lot of presents but his favorite is the kitchen that Santa brought him. Well either that or the grill and shopping cart he also brought him!

We enjoyed the day at home in our pajamas and then skyped with everyone! Can't wait until next year when we are back in the states and enjoying with our whole family. 

Santa

A few weeks ago we took Braydon to see Santa. Last year he refused to sit on his lap and it was the same thing this year. We did manage to get him to do some crafts which is more then I can say about last year.
