Banquet Season

Last weekend Madeleine and Evan went to their sports banquet for football and cheerleading. Essentially it's a time to sit in a room, eat bad food and hardy hear what is being said since all the kids are screaming the whole time. Other than that, it's great.
It was a fun year for both of them. Madeleine enjoyed the cheering and Evan liked the Running Back position this year. Evan will play next year, but Madeleine is questionable. We need to see how Madeleine does in school for the rest of the year as it's a huge time commitment at the begining of the school year.

Both Tina and I are "officially" off from work until after the New Year. We both however have things we need to get done over vacation, but it shouldn't take too much time. We're looking forward to getting things done around the house over the break.

Last week we got the roof replaced. We weren't planning to do it right away, but we just wanted to get it done. So for now the big projects are done (at least outside). Time to focus on the inside again.

I managed to get the gifts wrapped today so I won't need to stay up late Christmas Eve doing it. We're looking forward to a peaceful holiday.

Merry Christmas !
