Our livingroom is LOOKIN' GOOD!
Pics of our new chairs. Well, not really. It will be like this one but the piping will be dark brown & the body will be tan. I love the silhouette!
Rani being the cutest cattin EVER.
All my babies in one picture.:)

So we've been waiting for this rug for um, 4 months or so. And we thought it was never going to get here. After a very stressful debacle yesterday, we finally got it! I have to say it was worth the wait. It really creates the space for our living room and warms the place up. We are happy!
Wait a minute, what?
Just before heading down to the 'Lou for Christmas, I stopped in and got an MRI done on my shoulder and elbow because of some pain I have been having for quite a while. The shoulder I injured when I was training and trying to get into the FBI academy while I was weightlifting, but the elbow is new. Turns out the elbow is tendinitis, but the shoulder is, in a word, hosed. Turns out that I tore the rotator cuff and a tendon in there and having been over 2 years, the doc is not real confident that therapy or anything else he can do will help. He gave me a Cortisone shot to ease the swelling, but good lord does that hurt! It almost felt better before he gave me the shot...
So, I am going to spend the next month getting my shoulder a little more in shape, and then he's going to cut it and make it better. Hopefully then I will be right and can start getting back into the gym again, I'm tired of being the fat bastard lookalike, it's not even Halloween!
So, that's it for now personally. As far as work is concerned, I have been pulled off all the projects I was working on before and put on a much larger project with a much higher visibility and a lot more responsibility. It is going to be a huge challenge since the team is so much larger and there are 10 resources in India, so that means lots of REALLY early phone calls every week. My first meeting today was at 6AM and my last meeting was at 4 without a minute between them, so they are definitely getting their money's worth as far as hours. So, that looks awesome for me and what I have coming up, but it is going to be a tough road for the next year or so. Hey, maybe I'll get a free trip to India!!

OK. So I know I've been really bad about posting. It's just Josh is so good what else do I have to add?
I've uploaded a photo from Christmas (the only one I took in St. Louis) as well as a sweet photo of the kitties (they are doing GREAT by the way). There are a few of our New Year's party which turned out to be so fun.
There was a lot to be grateful for in 2007. Josh and I moved into our beautiful new home, I got a job at the big T, we made more wonderful friends and much more. All I can say is we are truly blessed.
I am sure 2008 is going to bring many blessings and adventures. We are so happy you all can join us!
Enjoy the photos.
Apples to Apples was our fav this year. Mom kicked our butts.
A little crocheted ear warmer for Joshy. I think it's quite fetching.
Our bebes chillin. This is pretty much what they do 18 hours a day.
Pretty ladies: Jaime, Jen and Shelley.
Obviously it's a rockin' good time at the partay. It looks really lame from this viewpoint but we did decorate!
E and the dancing partner, Curtie.
Our fellow St. Louis friends, Jon and Katie. Plus Joshy.
Alatiel and Curtie. Doin whatever.
The happy family; Joe, Rachel and bebe Hanna.
E, Rachel, baby Hanna and our new neighbor, KC. By the way, she makes the BEST kimchi pancakes!!!
Katie and Dan obviously having a great time.
E and friend Kim.
Gary, Shelby and Kaleb being really silly.
Kaleb, Katie and Dan. Again with the sillyness.
Naughty boys.
E and Stacey. Love the tiara!
