We had one of my best friends Camille (and her son Eli and her husband Jesse over - what's funny is I almost typed son Jesse, which could probably fit too... :o) Jesse and Joshie (haha!) get eachother on a roll and it's actually quite amusing. I don't have pics uploaded from that night, so mabye i'll come back and edit this post. maybe. We had a good dinner (if I do say so myself) made by ME. And fabulous cupcakes recipe by Martha Stewart suggested by my dear friend Adrian.
We went to a GREAT friends party with a while elephant gift exchange that was a blast. I got a great cake platter - well actually Josh got it for me, and I got a classic record album. From who you might ask? I don't even remember the guys name....
Christmas Eve was pizza and singing at Josh's family which was such fun. For our above dinner with C&J we had a soft-taco type deal, and got Cafe Rio House Dressing to go with it. Well, we had some left over (bc they now sell a quart size!) and so we used it to dip our pizza in ... DELICIOUS. But I will warn you that I pretty much could eat cardboard if it had that dressing on it. When we were singing we called Josh's 3 siblings that were not present and sang a song to them all. (mind you Josh is the youngest of 8 so we had five siblings present, as well as spouses, and 12 grandkids)
Christmas Day Josh's mom had a brunch for those of us that don't have in-laws to go to so it was just a few of us there. It was peaceful and relaxing. For Christmas my favorite gift was my 4 pack of Hardcover Twilight Series books. :o) Yup, that's right, and come this winter on a snowy few days, I can't wait to curl up and read them. Jace ripped open some presents (obviously not knowing what a present is, or why he got to tear paper - but he sure did enjoy it)
Josh is continuing his look for a job as well as working on his company that he's been working on for the past few months. It ends up that company in San Jose gave no full-time offers due to the economic situation. hmph. dumb economy.
I went to early morning gym class this morning, and got my TRASH kicked. My shoulders are so sore it makes it hard to type.
Jace's top teeth are completely threw and are now growing in. He's such a good baby, and trying hard to crawl. He gets up on his knees and hands - but then just rocks back and forth. He is VERY ticklish (like his mom). He's a great sleeper. And, well, we LOVE him to death. Oh, and his cheeks are pretty much eatable.
mmmmm mm good.
