Happy New Year
No pictures from New Years... I know... me no pictures? Wow... Heather and I had a low key New Years with dinner in Grand Rapids with her friend Erica and boyfriend Tim. Erica used to work for Alpha Chi Omega, and Tim used to work for Alpha Tau Omega, so we had some funny Greek stories to exchange. Then we went out to Holland, MI for a party of Heather's friend Lacy. We rocked the new year out there and had a good time.

Glad people liked my New York post. It was a great trip and thanks again to Andres for being a great host. My return trip was great, I got bumped from a flight and got a $300 voucher from Northwest. So all in all the trip was a success and ended up costing me next to nothing. My return to Chicago was good. I bought Novali a little Monkey with a "I Heart NY" shirt on, she loved it and we hung out before I had to head back to Michigan. We had a fun trip to borders and she picked out books for me to read. Before I read them I had her go through the book and tell me what she thought the story was about based on the pictures, she had most of the plot correct on the books! It was a lot of fun.

Her little monkey has his own little monkey.

Here we are reading "Dashing Through the Snow."

So today it is back to the grind... yes they made us work on the 2nd despite it being a federal holiday. It is slow though and we ran out and got chinese food for lunch so I can't really can't complain.

My parents are back from Bolivia and I having dinner with them on Thursday. I can not wait to see the pictures of their new house and all the family. Then this weekend is my chapter fraternity retreat in Kzoo. Can't wait, 2006 is off to a good start!
