Merry Christmas from my pilot! 

All of the pictures I want to post are on my mom's computer! The last few family functions, I have been to lazy to take out my camera so she has them all.

Mark had his 6 month simulator test checky thingy (PT? don't know what that stands for...) today in St. Louis, he's trying to get home right now, should have been home by 2:30pm BUT that didn't happen. Bad weather, weight restrictions etc and he just kept getting kicked off :(. Fingers crossed he will be home by 9ish though!

This past weekend we went to Houston, Mark flew in from Memphis (ALPA meetings all week) and I drove down on Friday. We hung out with my parents and then went to a Christmas program with the parents and my brothers family Saturday night. Great fun all around! Mark wanted to get home since he had been away all week so we drove back after the show Saturday, getting in around 12am. I'm glad we came home though, I love sleeping in :) (we were bad and didn't go to church...). Side note that we also spent the weekend calling our friend Barry who had a date Saturday night and annoying him for details like 2 schoolgirls :), we're told the date went well!

We're going back to Houston for Christmas on the 23rd, and then we're off to Vienna on the 26th!!! This is my first time out of the country and I AM SO EXCITED! It will be a short trip, we get home on the 30th, but I am so excited to go to Austria! We are flying Austrian airlines so that should be fun too! I'll definitely post pictures when we're back. Going to Europe was on our bucket list before we start a family, so this is perfect! I have the entire week off after Christmas, and luckily Mark got the same week off! No Christmas presents for each other this year since we just received a million wedding gifts, so this is our Christmas present for each other :)

Our office moved last week to a brand new building, it is so much nicer! I have my own office, for now at least. It makes such a difference in my motivation each day and wanting to come to work. Below is my work world. After 5 years I finally got to hang my diploma, I feel so successful, LOL!

 This is completely unrelated, kind of like the rest of this post... but I want a goat, a house goat. Tori Spelling and family have a goat that lives inside named Totes McGoat. I think that is so freakin awesome! Minkey wouldn't be happy with me, and a goat would probably eat my shoes but it would also be so cute!!!
