We're home again...and I think this time we're staying put for a while. I might even put away the suitcases! ...Might...but probably not. ;) We spent New Years in Minnesota with my family. Mom hosted another fabulous New Year's Eve Party...this was the 12th year in a row!! She invites the church family over, and everyone brings games and junk food. I love it! New Year's morning, the guys played flag football on the ice-covered back yard and that night we had Christmas with my family. Friday, we girls (plus Kaden) all went shopping in Mankato (so fun!), and then on Saturday Jordan and I made the drive home. I do have pictures to post...hopefully I'll be getting around to that soon! ;)
Since being home, we've gotten to host a couple "college friends" - Saturday night and Tuesday night - and that was really fun. Makes me wish I had been more proactive in looking for a bed before now. Right now we're just sleeping guests on an air mattress. It's not terrible, but definitely not optimal either.
Jordan has a busy week going on. His car got hit in a parking lot while he was at work, so he's been messing around with insurance companies trying to get that straightened out. Thankfully, the car is still driveable, and the person who hit it had insurance! Also, this is the last week of pheasant season in IA, so Macy and Jordan are trying to capitalize on that. It hasn't been a very good year for pheasants, but they've both really enjoyed hunting this year! I really need to get some new pictures and videos of Macy up here. She's been growing/changing so much! The newest trick Jordan has taught her is to jump up into his arms...it's really cute! :)
We're into the swing of 'Tax Season' at work now, so I'm picking up a lot more hours. By next week, I should be doubling what I was working before! Looking forward to the paychecks...kinda dreading not being home as much. :P
