Christmas Party Weekend

This weekend, like most people, was Christmas party weekend. We made 4 of the 5 parties! Friday night we attended Marcus' office party for a little while and then snuck out early to go to our church and help host the Married Adult Ministry dessert hour. Marcus' learned how to make Starbucks' drinks since the party was in our "Holy Grounds" cafe.

Saturday was party free- we made casseroles to prep for Abby Lu, ran a couple of little errands and enjoyed what might be our last date before child care is a concern. Dinner at Cheesecake Factory was wonderful. There was no wait at 7 PM. Amazing!

Sunday afternoon we attended my PEO chapter's holiday party and then rushed home to grab dessert and attend our Fantasy Football end of year party.

Here is a picture of 9 of the 12 members of our league. Pending some crazy activity by his wide receiver, Marcus will be playing in the championship against Jesse (bottom right in black). I will be playing for third place.





The championship game wasn't decided when we arrived at the party since the Cowboys and Giants were just getting started. Lots of time was spent around the laptop watching the points unfold.







While on commercial, Marcus got 2 more kids interested in his iPhone by letting David and Blythe go "fishing". Who knew Marcus' favorite new toy would be such a big hit among all the kids!
We are now done with our holiday parties and Abby Lu can come at anytime. Let's hope the sonogram today gives us some direction.

HEY...child care will NEVER be an issue with this friend around :-) I'll come love on Abby Lu WHENEVER you and Marcus want a night out :-) and I've heard that when they're little you should enjoy ALL the movies you can b/c they will typically SLEEP!
