Beginnings

The moving truck is here, Alex is at Grandma's house for the night, and we're loading up to follow the yellow brick road. It may not be paved in gold, but hopefully there is sunshine instead of snow.We had a wonderful Christmas - my only complaint was that there wasn't nearly enough time to spend with everyone that visited. Alex was old enough this year to sing Christmas carols himself and serenaded us all week with Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and Jingle Bells. He's been well entertained himself with all his fun new toys, and we've actually been able to sleep in and play board games, since he's so exhausted.We've been able to spend extra time with our families this week, thanks to the holidays, which has been wonderful, although it makes it that much harder to leave them. I've also finally attended board game night at Sara's shop, Rook's Comics and Games. I wish I'd been going every week, it was so much fun.
So, here's to a new year, and whatever it may bring. We miss you all - those who visited or didn't - and we're already missing those we're leaving here. We love you all and can't wait to see you in the year ahead.

Leaving is so hard, Jenni! I feel very sad for you. But I'm really REALLY looking forward to plaguing you with visits (and hopefully you'll come to the Big City and let me babysit while you and Jeremy go out on the town). If I can do anything to help you get settled in, just let me know. You're only 1-1/2 hours away!
Love,
Cathy

Jenni, I talked to Grandma K and got the scoop on your move. I'm glad you made it safely to Washington and I look forward to seeing you soon. Isaac has grown so much! I'll have to get over to the eastside to see him. I need some pointers on my knitting too.
