Sue with the girls opening their gifts
Bob and the Christmas tie Maddie picked out for him! :) I didn't get one of Glenda with her earings!
Last weekend was another project at our house (really just for Joe, I mostly watched! :) We purchased a new dishwasher and above the range microwave to match our other new stainless appliances. Everything went pretty smoothly with the dishwasher, but then we pulled off the existing hood above the oven and found a mess of wires. This picture is of Joe working on installing a new outlet in the cabinet for the microwave, just before he said, "I think I hit the gas line".... ahhhh..... So we had to call the gas company and decide whether or not to go stand on the curb in the cold while we waited for someone to come check it. We were pretty sure it was ok, but started laughing about the open house going on next door and picturing fire trucks showing up. Everything turned out to be ok and Joe finished the job! ;)
This past weekend Joe had the opportunity to buy playoff tickets from someone at work who had won them and wasn't able to go. We debated whether or not to go since I had to work at 7am, but in the end decided we just couldn't turn them down. It was an awesome game! I'm so glad we went. We had great seats because no one was sitting behind us so we didnt have to worry about sitting down, and we were in the isle so no one was in front of us! We had a lot of fun. We have decided we will probably join the waiting list for season tickets, but realize it will be years before we get them.

I just finished all of my day shifts and start back on nights tomorrow night. I'm a little sad because it was nice to be on the same schedule as Joe and going to bed when he was, but getting up early sure was torture!! I'm sure if and when I ever have a day job I'll get used to the hours though. But it was a struggle to switch back and forth for these few weeks. I'm excited to see how the new schedule works out for us.
