So this Birthday/Christmas was an interesting one. It was the first year not spending it with my parents and sister. It was weird not doing the traditions that our family(the brown's) did every year. We did web cam on my birthday and on Christmas which was great. Christmas day we went to Mike's grandmas and saw his mom and brothers. After that we cooked a delicious ham and made cowboy potatoes(soooo yummy). Also made my first pumpkin pie for my birthday(which is christmas eve). My work's holiday party was saturday the 27th. It was fun (but not as fun as Mike's). Sunday was Mike's birthday and we just laid low all day. We saw Marley and Me which was very good(i cried twice) and went to Texas Roadhouse with his brothers and Dad. Next up New Years Eve!!!

with our neighbors shawnee and claire

So this week we went to the Suns game with Sean and Heather and our neighbors Shawnee and Claire. They live in Canada for most of the year and only come out 2 times a year. They are girls basketball coaches at the University of Calgary. They had such a fun time and it was great to talk to someone that knows basketball. We got our tickets for like 7 bucks..what a deal... and the Suns won! Now if I could see a Laker game ;)

Happy Holidays!

Here is this years Christmas card that I made to send out to our family and friends(of the addresses I have) enjoy and hope everyone has a great holiday and love each and everyone of you and thanks for making this year a memorable one for me and Mike!

We had Mike's holiday party this past weekend at Dave and Busters. If no one has been there its like an adult Chucky Cheese (minus the animatronic animals singing). They have skee ball, basketball(which I won at!), and tons of token games. We had alot of fun and it sure beat the last Christmas Parties we have attended for Costco!
