Winter Happenings

 I attended my cousin's wedding on a cold, snowy, beautiful February morning.


Robby earned yet another belt. He is now a blue belt in karate. Farewell purple.

 We outfitted our house for the puppy (still nameless) that we will bring home tonight.

 I made delicious asparagus. Thank you Costco and Allrecipes.com!

I also managed to lose ten pounds.

Oh, and we got our wood floors refinished (which means it's finally our turn to try out our basement apartment). They look gorgeous, but our house still smells like chemicals.

Lastly, but probably most important, Rob found out one of his papers was accepted to the top finance journal. Happy day!

Future happenings:
- did I mention the puppy's homecoming tonight?
- naming said puppy
- chess tournament
- daylight savings
- Rob's birthday

  2. I love good news. Happy for you guys. Don't know how I supportive I feel about the puppy, considering how much human fecal matter I still have to deal with on a daily basis, but maybe someday when that isn't so fresh in my mind I will be ready. Good luck! (I like Rufus for a dog. Either that or Bruce.)

  3. Yay for losing 10 lbs! That's where I am too, but I seem to be stuck at the 10 lbs.

    Good luck with the dog.

    I love that asparagus recipe - so simple so delicious!

    And Congrats to Rob!!!
