Well, Christmas is over and the New Year is about to begin! I hope you all had a great holiday season.

For Christmas, Travis and I headed to Arlington to spend a day with my family. Then we headed to College Station to spend the day with Travis' extended family (the Warden side) and then ended up in The Woodlands (Houston) for the rest of the weekend. It was so much fun! We got a lot of great presents and he has already made himself a work bench in his garage with all the tools he got for Christmas! He is super excited about building a bunch of stuff...I guess we need to invest in a shopvac now...right Dad?! :)

The wedding plans are going very well. We almost have all the names and address together to get the invitations addressed and sent out. Apparently, the invitations came in, but weren't printed right, so we had to send them back to get reprinted. Hopefully they will be there by Tuesday. Anyway, the cakes have been picked out and Mom has been hard at work on the dresses. I getting really excited!

Not a lot is happening other than wedding planning and settling down from the holidays. I am going to the store now to get some Tenderloins...that is right, I cook! :)

Love...JK

For those of you who need a reminder of what Travis looks like, here is a picture...don't worry...he hasn't changed a bit!! ;)

Texas is not supposed to be this cold! Wow! I sure am pulling out all my coats. I love this weather because you can build fires!! :)

Anyway, Travis and I are at his parents' house in The Woodlands in Houston. His mother's birthday was yesterday so we came down to celebrate with her and her friends. It has been a good weekend. We are getting ready to head to church, but apparently I get ready faster at other peoples' houses than I do at my own. I have time to kill!

I don't have much to update on really. We are heading back to Austin this afternoon after we go see a movie with his parents.

I hope you are all having a great weekend!! :)

Love to you all...
JK

It has been a very productive past few days!

Friday at work we moved offices. We moved from the third floor to the first floor. The work that we do is sensitive information and compliance related. So, the big wigs thought we needed more security. Therefore, we moved to a more secluded area of the building. At least we have plenty of people in our department to keep us entertained.
Then our softball team had a game at 6:30pm. We won! We have played three games and won two of them. It is great to get back into the game. Our team is a small group from church and it is just fun to get out there and have fun with a bunch of other Christians! I have met some great people through the group.

Saturday Travis and I went shopping to get most of our presents purchased. We pretty much finished off our lists! It feels so good to get the shopping done and out of the way instead of waiting to the last minute. I do have some more people on my list to buy for, but I haven't quite decided what to get them yet.

Speaking of which...check out giftduck.com! It is an awesome site where you can build a wishlist all year long (so you aren't trying to remember everything you wanted at Christmas time) and only those who you have invited to your Friends list can see it. It sends reminders about birthdays, anniversaries, etc. Check it out!

It was good to have a weekend without travel. Just time to do whatever was on my to do list. It is nice every once in awhile to just be able to come and go as you please without any thoughts of timelines or obligations to be anywhere.

Still trying to fight a cold that I have had since Thanksgiving. Other than that...life it great!!

Love,
JK
