Thanks to everyone who posted Christmas wishes, and sent us all the beautiful Christmas cards! Sorry I haven't posted much lately, but it has been a whirlwind few days.
After duty coverage for work, and working our designated holidays, we were preparing for my family to assemble at our house for our Christmas get together. Matt also got to come home right after Christmas and he really wanted to go to the Capital One Bowl for part of his Christmas present, so right after everyone left we (Matt, Jon and myself....Ali and Drew had school the next day) made a whirlwind trip for an overnighter in Orlando.
No visit to Disney, but we did eat again at House of Blues in DTD for dinner the one night we were there. They totally changed the menu (since we were there for Lisa's wish trip and Rachel's premiere performance on their stage) and no longer had the VooDoo shrimp appetizer, which disappointed Jonathan and I greatly!
(While I was there I had to get some pictures of Ragland Road and the
Lego Store, just as a reminder of my days working Security for Disney! Have spoon, will travel.....right Rosie???)
Sadly I wasn't able to meet up with Poolrat Pat while we were there......maybe next time Pat!
Then this past weekend Ali and I followed Matt back to Virginia for his report back to the Navy. We had some furniture for him to use in his apartment that he couldn't get in his car, and we got to help him shop for some other stuff while we were there to finish off his Christmas.
Now that I am finally back and getting into a routine following days off after Christmas, it is back to the tight schedules and extra hours at work in preparation for the second installation this spring of the big project I am working on. Hopefully since it is the second time around, it won't take me away quite as much as I was last spring.
I know it has been over a year now since we took the trip that is the subject of this TR, but I promise to finish it up really soon! (Okay, like THAT is going to appease some of you......lol) I do have most of the final update written, so............
And I promise to also make it back to so many of you guy's TRs and PTRs that I have been absent from. BTW, I also made a promise at New Year's to lose some weight, and be a lot nicer to my friends too, so you should all know now how serious I am about all these promises.......
