Sorry I haven't written in a while - between the holidays and being sick, I haven't had the chance to write until today. I guess it's a good thing that I don't have much to say.

First of all, I hope that everybody had a wonderful Christmas. I know I did. Every year since I can remember, we've always gone to midnight mass on Christmas Eve, but this year, we broke tradition and went to 4:00 mass instead. It was nice - normally I don't get to bed until about 2:00 that night and with everything going on on Christmas day, I'm usually worn down pretty early. But this year, I was able to get to sleep at a normal hour and was good to go all day! We spent Christmas morning at my parents and then went to my aunt & uncles for our gift exchange and the White Elephant exchange.

For our White Elephant gift exchange, and I ended up getting a combination shoe horn/walking stick/back scratcher. It's something to see for sure! My cousin Drew ended up with what I brought - a handful of old license plates. I don't think he was very happy with that! :) My cousin Michael got the white elephant, but I guess somebody has already kidnapped it away from him. It should be an interesting year for the elephant - who knows where he's at or what he's up to!

And for those of you who think I took him, I can assure you I did not!
