celebrating birthday with my dear Julie and trimming the tree

While Brad and I were at the Swim Meet, Osten was at his buddy Coulter's house watching the Sooners beat Baylor 30-23 for the Big 12 Championship. How incredibly exciting!

On Saturday night, I met my dear friend Julie at Lolo in Hudson for dinner and drinks. We had an amazing meal and giggled a whole bunch.

Then we danced to band at Pudge's and called it a night.

This afternoon, Osten, Katie and kind of Anders and I trimmed the Christmas tree and put the finishing touches on Christmas decor. I also addressed most cards and got them in the post so friends and family far and near will soon receive our message of Merry Christmas greetings.
