What we've been doing

Marian has made the "final cut" for the Bijou Awards and is one of 5 Middle School finalists.  Oddly, they are all girls this year.  She is pondering what she will sing and looking forward to the competition once again.  It is Saturday, January 16th.

Gabriel found out that he did not make it into Stanford, and was disappointed but he's looking forward to other colleges.  He is continuing to work and finish applications.  He is bringing the family out to dinner tonight and then we are all going to the new Star Wars movie.  (Yes, we already have tickets!)

Christmas cookies made so far:
Snickerdoodles (Bogdan's yearly request)
Double Peanut butter with Chocolate Drizzle (Marian's brainchild)
Cornulete, Romanian jam-filled buttermilk cookies (Gabriel's favorite)
Sugar cookies (Anna's annual choice)

Still awaiting word from CarMax about the car I'm looking at, they are supposed to be getting it transported here.  Still juggling 2 cars between 4 drivers.

Our elderly friend had her "reconnect" surgery, after living with an ileostomy for 3 months.  She is still in a lot of pain, but we are hopeful this will fix her issues.
