Merry Christmas, everybody!

What better to signal another Christmas gone by than with a mild 60 degree Sunday in New Jersey. Yuck. Where's the frosty air?
Anyway, Christmas was fun. We got to see most of our immediate family and friends in the last week and exchanged many presents. One present that Tom has been getting a lot of use out of is NBA Live 09 that John gave me. He's been playing it way too much the last few days. Friday, Saturday and Sunday have been all about relaxing for a large portion of the day. We also have a lot of nifty gift cards that are now burning a hole in the wallet, so to speak.
Can't wait till New Year's when we entertain the married couple-in-training and a few other friends for a very chill and laid-back celebration of the ending of '08.

We got our tree!

Buying a Christmas tree is like planting the flag, declaring that Christmas season is finally arrived and our apartment is now claimed by its mystic power. This is our first official, married Christmas tree. The tree was relieved that it is now legitimate.
