New Year's Eve

Every year, we welcome the New Year with a toast. We count down the seconds to the New Year, toast & then drink our virgin strawberry daiquiris. Kevin & I started making these drinks when the girls were little. That way, the girls too could toast a non-alcoholic beverage that looked yummy & was fun. Since then, it's become a New Year's tradition for us.

Nicole is Still Sick

Nicole hasn't been feeling well for the past two days. She has been running a fever between 100 & 102 and has been having a lot of coughing & congestion. I made a doctor's appointment for her today so that if she needed antibiotics, she could get them BEFORE the New Year's Holiday. The doctor seems to think that she has a virus, so not antibiotics are needed. He said to bring her back is she isn't better by next Tuesday. Ahhhh....my poor baby. I wish I could take her sickness for her. :(

Fixed by Bob

After much anticipation, the maintenance man finally showed up. Bob came to our house really late (7:30 p.m. or so) because his coworker called in sick, and he had to pull his coworker's load today. At that point, we were just happy to have Bob at our house to fix the water heater. He immediately went to work, and thanks to him, we now have HOT WATER again! Thank you, Bob.

By the way, I don't know if "Bob" was this man's actual name, but doesn't he look like he should be a Bob?... He seemed very nice, AND he even let me take his picture. :)

Hot Water

It was a bad day in the Rogers' household; we had NO HOT water!! Brrrrr....showers were NO fun at all! Kevin will stay home tomorrow & wait for a maintenance man to come fix our water heater, and HOPEFULLY, it will get fixed very soon.

New Moon

Nicole & I went to see New Moon, and I have to admit, I wasn't too excited about going to see it, but since Nicole REALLY wanted me to go with her and since she's such a sweet child, I couldn't turn her down. To my surprise, I COMPLETELY enjoyed the movie!! Now, I can't wait for the sequel.

Chalupas

I don't know why we had not made chalupas (or tostadas) in such a long time because they are so easy to make & so yummy. I decided to make them because we didn't get to eat any at the Posadas. Yummmm....we all enjoyed them.

Christmas Morning

OK, so here are some of our Christmas pictures. Nicole, thank you for helping me upload so many pics.
