Saturday night we went over to the Shippys for their Christmas party. They are such a nice couple! Me and Mary.

This morning was our long run before we had family in town for a visit. We had 15 Miles to do. It was sunny and 25 degrees, with the wind chill making it feel like 16. It was very chilly so we donned our ninja masks.

After our brisk run and family visit it was time to get to work on installing the TV in our workout room. We had both received awards at work and with the holiday deals going it was the perfect time to get one since we have been needing one for awhile now. Here is how the workout room looks now. We need to repaint and get new window treatments, but it’s coming along!
