Holidays and now back to the real world...

I do love the holidays! I have the great pleasure of not going to work for two weeks...I work at a high school that is year round. My sister was able to come home for Christmas, which I was so excited about because it would have been the first time the four of us were not all together for Christmas. On Christmas Eve, my best friend Leah was able to come with my family for our traditional outing. I was so excited because Leah was just days away from moving to Las Cruces and I was trying to spend a lot of time with her. She has now moved...but I will be visiting her this coming weekend with Sarah, a gal in my singles branch.

New Years was fantastic! I got to go to Arizona and stay at my sister's house...I hate sleeping on that awful couch! And I really don't like sleeping on air mattresses either, but at least it was better than the couch! My dad and I put up a wall in Elizabeth's house, but we had to have my cousin Kent help with some electrical wires for outlets that were hidden in the walls. The New Years party down in Casa Grande was so much fun! I just love to hang out with my family! I took a lot of pictures and will post them another day when I am not out of it...I haven't been sleeping really well...
