The Holidays 2025!

 The holidays were wonderful!  We celebrated Christmas Eve at my parent's house for fondue dinner, then Christmas morning my parents came over and we did our *new* traditional All You Can Eat Chinese Buffett for Christmas dinner.  Then Boxing day we celebrated with a lunch at our house and extended family.  Then Hannah and her crew stayed 2 more nights and took Isla back to Salem for a few more nights then I went down for New Years Eve and we celebrated in Salem with friends!  Busy busy busy! I have 3 more days of break before I have to go back to work and I'm trying to soak in some final days of rest and also get a few more chores/projects done (like updating this!).
