Holiday Highlights

We tried to get it all in this Holiday Season!
I'm late in posting, but these are some of my favorite photos from the Holidays.


Our tree. It's simple, but it's perfect.

Girl Gift Exchange. I've got great friends in the 7th Ward!

A trip to Huntington to visit my Curetons... AND! There's a Cafe Rio in OC!

We sang in a concert with the my siblings. We all wore Ugly Sweaters, we were lucky enough to get matching ones. Peter's face explains how he felt about wearing that sweater.

My brothers under the Mistletoe. It's normal where I come from.

Hanging with the Fleavitts (Peter's cousins).

Playing Just Dance2. The two guys that proclaim to be able to
beat the game not by dancing, but by being smarter than the system.

Then there's the Romney kids, hamming it up!

Christmas Morning!

Puerto Penasco, Sonora, Mexico

The reason we go down to Mexico every year, the FOOD!

Hanging and cleaning out memories at Lomas.

The Rose Parade! Peter served his mission in East LA and never saw the parade, so he was extra excited to see it, in the place he used to serve.

My adorable cousin, David, got home from his mission in Colorado.

Dominoes with the crew!

Girls Night out at Karaoke with 'All The Single Ladies."

Kings-Oilers Hockey game with Peter's Canadian buds. My first NHL game.


It was a perfect Christmas Season.

Personality Preferences

I renewed my drivers license last October (yes, I did my hair and wore one of my favorite shirts). They gave me the Interim License. That expired mid-December while I continued to wait for my new one. So, Holidays and GRE are over so I finally followed up. The DMV has no record that I went in or renewed my license. What?! Sorta scary that the DMV lost a record. I had to make a new appointment and have to go and do the whole process over again... At least I've lost a couple pounds and gotten my 'hair did' since that last picture.

An unknown service fee showed up on our Credit Card last Saturday. I called immediately, the guy apologized, said it was an error and they'll take if off. Ask Peter, I'm neurotic about doing everything by the books and never paying fees. It's Thursday and it still hasn't dropped. So, I called again, and there was no record of my first call. They say it will now drop off. What?! My CC lost a record. Eek!

Last one... A washing machine was broken at our apartment last week (I manage our building). I called Wednesday, said they'd be out Thursday. I called Thursday, said they were on their way. Called Friday, said it was first thing on Saturday. Called Saturday at 5pm, spoke (yelled) with two managers who didn't have any record of the broken machine. They came out on Monday. Wow.

I prefer being a 'yellow personality,' but if I didn't pull out my 'red' every few days, I'd be a poorer, illegally driving person with stinky clothes. Don't you hate when you have to be control freak?!
