Steve's party

12-16-13

SteveFest 2013 went well!

We had visitors to our home from noon till almost midnight. It was really wonderful! Our afternoon crowd was the biggest, bringing Sarah, Alyssa and her family, my folks, the Machados, Maryann, Frank and Brandon, Aaron, and Chris and Kathy. It was a really great time being able to show off the digs and visit with everyone. I was feeling so happy! It was quiet much of the early evening with us even closing up shop around 8:30 when there was someone at the door! Aaron showed up, which was awesome and a little unexpected. We showed him around and visited when Andrea sent me a text asking if it was too late to come by at 10:30. She and Ben came and brought the coolest gift in the form of an ornament with Steve’s name on it along with a little house saying our home. I was so excited!! It was truly a wonderful way to warm our house!

Sunday was much more mellow. Ken went and lined Hull while the boys and I went out shopping. It was shockingly fun, considering it was 10 days before Christmas and the boys hate shopping. LOL! We got home and they of course disappeared into 8 bit paradise and I watched some 30 Rock. Ken got home which allowed me to head back out and do more shopping for the boys. I really felt kind of bored much of the afternoon. I don’t know if it was bored or just confusion as to what to do with this down time. We played a board game in the evening, and I did manage to read the Playboy while Ken did my toes, but I still felt wrong.

I am feeling like I am developing a bit of a cold. I am not surprised, what with the weather being wonky and I have been on the go for so long. I am excited to only have to deal with 5 more days of work until a nice week off.
