The New Year...

Hi everyone! Sorry for the delay in postings - but it's been busy - especially when I was in Charleston for Christmas and then again for a week and a half for Blackbaud training. It was awesome to see everyone that I could that week though!

Things are going great here! Dawn, Chris, and I went snowboarding Saturday and had a great day! It was 50, sunny, and packed powder - good times for sure. Going back up tomorrow - I am taking another lesson just to make sure I'm not getting into bad habits and also, I need some help with my toe-edge turn (see - I'm slowly but surely learning the lingo!). Chris and I have a weekend in Breckenridge next weekend (January 30th) so don't want to look too much like an idiot... Anyway, more updates to come but wanted to touch base and let y'all know I'm still here and will update the blog more often - as things happen.

My laptop crashed while I was in Charleston so I lost all my pictures but here are a couple from New Year's Eve and skiing Saturday. AND - as a bonus, pictures of Homer and Pickles because I know there are some of you anxious to see the infamous VSB (Vampire Shit Bat) that is Pickles.
