Christmas In the Draper House

It was a busy Christmas this year in our house! We had Dan's parents and oldest brother and sister-in-law, along with our cutie-patootie niece, Bryn, stay with us all the way from Charleston, S.C. We also had his other brother and his girlfriend, and my parents and sister, and some friends, popping in and out throughout the week. Needless to say I had little no time to update recently.

Things have calmed down around the house now, and we're slowly putting away the holiday decor and getting back to the daily grind. Today was my first day back at work in a week and a half...and boy was it S-L-O-W. Everyone else must have taken lots of time off too, because I only had three e-mails upon return.

As tonight is New Year's Eve, I'm busy making a resolutions list, most of which I'm sure to disregard within a month. "Develop a stronger sense of patience" is at the top of that list. As January rolls in, I am reminded that it's approaching the 30 day mark for the wait for our license...but, I suspect that if I can take a week and a half off during the holidays, so can the license approval people. Which means that our license will probably come later than I had hoped. Just means a few more days of sleep, right?

Looking forward to celebrating tonight, in my sparkly purple dress and heels, and looking forward to all that 2013 has to offer!
