Hi ho, Hi ho, it's off to work I go

Today is the first day back to work after two weeks of vacation.

Vacations during the school year are great but boy, it's tough to get up at 5:00 a.m. after sleeping late for two weeks.  And by late, I only mean until  8:30 or so.  8:30 seems really early until you compare it to 5:00 a.m.!

I'm excited to go back to work and see all of my friends, just like a kid I guess.  However, I'm feeling guilty that I didn't go to school during my break to get my room organized and ready for the new year.

I have a lot of testing to finish up and then I need to get back on a regular schedule.  It is amazing how much more productive I feel when I am on a regular schedule. 

All ready for church

I look at pictures like these and I wonder where did the time go?

I'm already off to a better start

 Garrett got a motorized crane from Santa, along with a stocking full of goodies.

 Meagan got an iPod Touch from Santa, along with a stocking full of goodies.

This is Jules, our new family member.  She, too, received a stocking full of goodies from Santa.

How was your Christmas?  What did Santa bring you or put into your stocking?
