We rang in the new year by hosting a New Year's Eve party. It was the first time we'd done so and I gotta say I want to do it again. It was nice having or own party instead of going to one.
All my resolutions are in my head, waiting to be written down. It's just like my posting in that I've had some writing to do that I've been lax in doing. To be sure they're pretty much the same as last year. Possibly expect a resolution post in a day or two (hopefully not any longer than that).
Kyle & I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary this past weekend. We took a day trip to Richmond. We really need to get back up there because half a day isn't enough time. I want to see more of what people love about Richmond. We went to 2 thrift stores, a museum and had lunch at a pizza place referred to as the 'best pizza in Richmond.' And yes, we considered trying to find John & Sherry's house, but we remembered that that'd be crazy and no way to meet them, only a definite way to scare them.
The major change in our house is that Blaze & Mariska are moving in (well have moved in, though they weren't supposed to until February 1st). Life was ...difficult for Blaze at her place and she asked, well kinda begged, to live with us. We softies took pity upon that poor child and said yes. So, Isaac gets a roomie and hopefully a refresher course on sharing, along with Introductory to Siblings 101. Blaze gets a primer on Keeping a Clean House and the real world experience of my (helpful) nagging reminding.
I have finally, finally, FINALLY bought a new camera! My trusty Olympus died suddenly in October 2010. It's a shame I took over a year to get a new one. I'm cheap but it wouldn't have been so hard to come up with 100 bucks that it should have taken me this long. The real tragedy of waiting so long is that I know I've missed out on lots of picture taking so my 2011 photos are sparse.
I leave you with a picture from my new camera (a Canon Powershot ELPH 100 HS btw).
