Steve & Amy – Hoping to Adopt

I thought I would update the blog, since I’ve been slow to update lately.

Our Christmas vacation is over. Steve goes back to school tomorrow and I unfortunately started back to school last week.

We had great plans for our Christmas vacation, and although it didn’t turn out to be like we had planned, it still ended up to be a fun break. We were planning on heading to Oregon to visit Will and Challene. Unfortunately the weather started looking like it was going to be pretty rough, and we didn’t want to risk anything, so we had to cancel our plans. We were disappointed, but we are hoping that we can still fit in a visit to Will and Challene before they leave Oregon.

To console ourselves and to keep busy (since Steve had already taken time off work), we decided to have a vacation at home. It turned out to be really fun. We did not cook, do dishes, or any of that boring stuff. Instead we just relaxed. We ate out for almost every meal. We played some of our new Christmas games, watched movies, slept in late, and then Steve’s favorite….

We got a Wii! We decided that we would look for a Wii. Steve spent a few hours calling around to various stores. He even created a spreadsheet so he could keep track of which locations he had called. Finally…he came across a Wii (actually 3–he’s now going into business selling Wiis.) So we spent many hours glued to the TV playing Wii Sports and also Super Paper Mario. Yes, we became video game junkies.

So all in all it was a fun vacation! It definitely made it tough to go back to reality! Steve gets finished with school in May…so hopefully another “vacation” will be coming soon!
