Mark and I didn't do a thing for NY's eve or NY's day. Well, we did do lunch at our favorite restaurant, Manuel's, yesterday but that was about it. It is so cold here that most celebrations had to be miserable! We have covered our plants for three nights straight and will probably do so again tonight. It is supposed to start warming up a bit and for that I am thankful. It isn't all that bad during the day but it has been in the 20's at night. Very uncommon here! But, still better than if we were on the Iowa farm. :-)
The 28th we attended the Insight Bowl in Tempe to watch our Iowa Hawkeyes beat the Missouri Tigers. The game wasn't until 8 p.m. but we left around 3:00 in the afternoon and drove down to the campus and hit the tailgating bars and had dinner. It was so much fun and such a great game. It made for a very memorable 36th wedding anniversary!
We also spent the cold days finishing all our cornice boards in the home. Now every window looks fantastic! Next project, landscaping. Labor intense, that! But, I love to do landscaping so I am looking forward to the challenge. Not sure if Mark is quite as enthusiastic for this job as I am...
