Today is my last day on the East Coast. Ryan and I drove back to Mom's for an afternoon of football, fondue and presents. We finally had a little Christmas celebration. We watched football, (so happy the Patriots are going to the Superbowl), drank champagne and had fondue for dinner. We had a very simple present exchange after dinner. It was a nice low key kind of day.

I am really excited to meet up with Eric tomorrow in LA. It is really a strange feeling to be 12 days into a vacation and know that it is only the beginning. So far I have had a wonderful time visiting with friends and family but I am ready for the real adventure to begin. Tomorrow LA. Tuesday Fiji. I am ready to enter back into Summer.
