It's Christmas-tiiiime in the city

My Christmas was lovely... Pictures are here
My mom and I made a nice dinner for the 4 of us on Christmas eve. We ate steak, used the nice christmas dishes, and drank juice out of wine glasses. My brother is graduating in May and I'm getting married in August, so this might be our last Christmas all together. My mom is very un-fond of that fact so really wanted to make this one special. On Christmas is was just the 4 of us and our grandparents. Quite nice indeed. It was also 70 degrees.

Tonight I had dinner with 7 old friends from high school. 2 of us are engaged and 4 others are seriously involved. One is about to graduate from college. 1 lives in California, 1 in Missouri, and 1 in Ohio. We live such different lives now but yet getting together was wonderful. It wasn't akward at all, we can all share our different lives with each other and it's really great. It was a really wonderful time, even if we did have to wait an hour and a half for a table!

Tomorrow night ends a long 9 days without my love. I can't wait to hug him again. In 1 week, I'm off to sunny California! Yay!!
