This holiday season has been pleasant. The three of us have visited all sorts of people since arriving in NJ from childhood friends to my Dad's side of the family (they threw a lovely get-together in Lucy's honor for which I'm very thankful).
Christmas Day we stayed at my parent's house, eating the best spread of food I've seen in a long time -- olives, cheeses, marinated peppers and mushrooms, fresh bread, seafood, and my sister's divine cheese cake. Alan and I have enjoyed spending a number of evenings with Alex and Stephen, playing Trivial Pursuit and Guitar Hero. Tons of fun.
In light of this good time with family and friends I will ring in the New Year on a happy note. This past year has been both sweet and sad, but when the blessings outweigh the burdens how can I be anything but glad?
Happy New Year to you all!

I'm thrilled to hear you've enjoyed your trip! We've missed you here and are looking forward to hugging your neck when you return. But, not before we deliver a freshly baked batch of chocolate snowballs. :)
