So much to write about it seems. Christmas, New Years, the freakin’ Chargers. Seriously…how can a team be 8-8 and still get in the playoffs? Well…after their embarrassing loss to the Steelers I know why they were 8-8. Don’t get me wrong…I love the Chargers, but it’s more of a love-hate. Anyhow, hope everybody had a wonderful Christmas with family and friends! Joelle and I enjoyed a fantastic time with our families and of course it was so special to have Emmelia with us for her first Christmas. She didn’t have a clue what was going on but she definitely had a good time ripping up tissue paper. We were blessed to have Joelle’s brother Dante and his family (his wife Beth and their little cutie Sierra @ 2.5 years old) stay at our house for a week or so from Atlanta. Emmelia and Sierra met for the first time and they had so much fun together. We are sad they are gone….there’s nothing better than the sound of laughter from children. We took the tree down last week as it was very dry and brittle….as if being the first week in January wasn’t a good enough reason. Emmelia was so cute with the tree…always trying to reach for the lowest ornament….she loved all the little lights and grunted continually in adoration of them. She had her first picture taken with Santa and didn’t even try to rip his beard off. With all the family in town (from Joelle’s side) the week went by like a blur. Ironiclly, the day everybody left I got really sick and layed on our couch for three days…happy new year to me.
