Life with Gling

glingdidit January 8th, 2008

So Christmas break has come and gone, but we had one last weekend of fun to finish it out.  Friday night and Saturday morning were spent cleaning like mad-men to get the house back in order after we’d be gone for over a week for Christmas and New Year’s.  So mad-men we were…and the house was spotless by 2:00.  Shortly after, Jared’s family got there and unloaded their things for a fun night in Greenville.  We actually jumped back on the road right away to head into O’Fallon for some delicious BBQ at 17th Street.  Jared had been waiting quite awhile to take everyone there…and hopefully they all liked it.  I know I did!  After that we headed back to Greenville and got to bed at a decent time so we could get up for church in the morning.  Church was good…a great sermon series to start the new year with (“Getting on track…”).  The music went pretty well too…Jared on drums and me with another solo…as usual.  I’m starting to get used to the whole “singing” thing again…but I still get nervous every time.  Anywho…after lunch…the ladies and I all left right away to zip to St. Louis to see “Wicked” at the Fox Theatre.  It was…simply put…amazing.  If you have even a little bit of love for theatre…you should go.  If you fondly remember watching “The Wizard of Oz” year after year…then you must go.  The music and the sets were great…and it was the Fox…which is always a treat.  So that went really well…and afterwords we headed over to the landing to eat at the Spaghetti Factory…another delicious treat.  It was a nice day away with the girls…and when we got back to Greenville…Jared and Steven had nearly completed my new laminate flooring in the kitchen.  I was super pumped for that!  So now my kitchen has gotten a facelift (or rather, floorlift) and I’m really excited about it.  And now we’re back to work.  It’ll be a busy week trying to make sure that all of my incoming students for Spring semester are taken care of…but I’m ready for it!  Adios!
