Tiffany and I recently put together our annual Christmas letter (Soon to be posted on our website) and quickly realized how crazy 2008 was. It was a good year too.
After Thanksgiving, we took a trip to Las Vegas with some friends. Bluegreen recently opened a new resort called Club 36, so we wanted to make sure we visited it as soon as possible. The resort was beautiful. It is just off "The Strip." It was also just off the "Landing Strip" of the airport. Surprisingly, we were not able to really hear the jets from inside our room.
We arrived in Las Vegas the day after the big "snow storm." Unfortunately, most of the snow had melted in the Valley. On the way back to Phoenix, we stopped in the mountains for a snowball fight and built a snowman too.
The biggest highlight of the trip was going to see Cirque du Soleil Ka. The best word to describe the show is: WOW! We had awesome seats and had a fantastic time.
In other news:
- We enjoyed the last few weeks of December. Christmas and a lot of resting were a great way to end the year (As always). We received a number of cash gifts this year, so we pooled them together and purchased climbing gear! We expect to get a lot of use out of the gear in 2009 and beyond.
- We have already hit the 10,000 picture mark with the Canon Xsi! We hit the mark on the 97th day of owning the camera. That means that we take an average of 103 pictures a day. Now I just need to figure out a good workflow to sort through the pictures and post the best ones (This project is already in progress)!
- Finally, I received a bit of a promotion in December. The details are not fully ironed out yet, but it is exciting!
