Life

Store-hopping, cooking, small group, movies, winter breezes, and fires in the fireplace...that about sums it up. Our lives have gone back to the usual and we are content as ever. We are loving our rental home and are enjoying our extra time together.

...Grocery shopping has become a game, making rounds to different stores for good deals. Made a crockpot of Vegetable Beef Soup that about boiled over. Check out the bargains at a Steve & Barries going out of business; realized, after the fact, that I came home with two lefties (basically half a pair of shoes). Took our gag-gifts to small group for a belated Christmas celebration: Pepto, Backstreet cd, doo-rag, and I can't remember the rest. Ended up getting Christmas ornaments we had given as a gift to our friends, funny, funny...

The day after we returned from Christmas vacation, we spent the day out in our field playing cards and watching Lexi parade around. Sad news to us came midweek as the weather turned pretty cool. More and more we've moved our activities indoors, hence the increase in movies and cozying up near the fireplace.

Life is continuing on and we are just living in it. It's good.

Oh, oh, and how could I forget that 24 starts tonight, in less than two hours!!!

You gave the beloved do-rag away??? No, Kip, No!! We love you all. It's a chilly 45 here right now, but I'm sure that'd be a heat wave in NC. It'll get colder here this week...in the 30's. We really miss you already. Hudson asked me this morning when "Uncle Kip and Aunt LaFanda" were coming back. Rick and I got a great chuckle out of that one. We love you all.
