Merry Christmas!

We are rounding out our week in Tulsa for Christmas. It has been a week of family, fun, and food. Lots and lots of food. In fact, I'm pretty sure that we will be eating only broccoli for the next two weeks! We arrived in Tulsa on December 18th to surprise John's mother for her birthday, which is the 19th. Since then we have just been hanging out and seeing lots of family. We are sad to head back to the Windy City tomorrow, but it will be nice to be back in our normal routines, except that we just learned that the hot water heater in our building went kaput. A cold shower on Monday morning will feel awesome, especially since the high is only supposed to be in the 20s.

Hope everyone had a happy and safe holiday!
