Moving Day

Big news, Big change. We are moving! Josh and I have both known we would not stay in the Cedar Valley for long, but we are moving sooner than expected. I got a job offer in Des Moines with great pay and great benefits, and i, of course, accepted. I will be moving at the end of the motnh with Colbert to our new place and Josh will be staying with two amazing friends who graciously offered their extra bedroom. He is finishing school for the next two months so we will be playing long distance. I'm sure it will go plenty fast as he wraps up his school work and I study for my stockbroker's license, which is required for my job. We are hoping that the weather will be good and we can find a great apartment at a great price. Watch this space for updates.

Fun with Kitty Kat

So we had a good first Christmas. Spent lunch on Sunday with my family followed by games and then came back to waterloo for Josh's extended familly dinner at the Brown Bottle. Christmas eve we enjoyed our new gifts and took our gift cards shopping for new clothes and a game (JEOPARDY!) we have been wanting. Today we are going back down and visiting more family followed by a trip to the cinema to watch Sweeney Todd. Apparently the theatres in our town won't be showing it because of a distribution deal gone wrong. It was also a white Christmas, which hasn't happened in a few years. Saturday we got about 6 inches, on top of the 3 we already have. Anyways, here are the obligatory pictures with a liberal dose of colbert per adam's request.

These are cumulative from a wedding, a snow/ice storm, colbert adventures, birthday party celebration, etc. Forgive me for i was too lazy to justify the orientation.
