The Holidays

We worked through the holidays as usual, and still have a few days to go before a welcomed day off.  But we found time to relish the joys of the season.  We had our first Christmas dinner together this year (in the years before I was always working at Morels and Dave was printing pictures).  On the menu was a vegetarian shephard's pie, stuffing and mashed potatoes, accompanied with champagne (Thanks Mom & Dad!)

We loved all our gifts, Thank you very much!!!  Everything was thoughtful and wonderful.
We rang in the New Year in our usual Idaho style: working until 11:55pm and then running to the Seven Devils Pub for the countdown (with the name tag and work shirts still on).  This year we made it 30 seconds before midnight, hugged our friends and were off to sleep.  

Everything looks pretty here blanketed by snow.  We're planning to ski at Brundage on our days off, and of course to sleep and eat like rock stars.  Happy New Years everyone!  Love you!!!
