Mom, this pic is mostly for you - I realized I never showed you what the new curtains look like IN the kitchen! Don't they look great??? It's funny how the color isn't that much different than the old ones, but I'm so glad to get rid of the plaid! Plus, I LOVE having matching ones over each window! If you go to my flickr you can see a pic of the kitchen that has both windows in it.

So, this is my week of vacation. It started off in Niagara Falls - we had a BLAST. It was just our friends Matt & Kristen and us. We played poker... and... video poker... and, well, just had fun :)

I also went on a shopping spree - I spent a bunch of gift certifcates that I had leftover from my old Yahoo! credit card. I got two sweaters, a navy button-down shirt and khaki pants from The Gap, a sweater and a nice black shirt from Banana Republic and a new pair of brown work shoes. I still have $25 for Old Navy left, too!

I found a winter coat that I fell in love with, and I really need a new one, since I kinda got a bit too big for my old one to button if I'm wearing a sweater, and I'm going to be walking to work now... but I just wasn't in the mood for spending $125 on a coat. Even if it was reeeeaaally nice.

Yesterday I got to go meet Mary - my new niece! She's very cute, as anyone who is reading this knows because I think only mom, E, and Janna read this, but, whatevs. Anyway, I was more amazed with how big Katie and Andrew are! Katie's an actual little girl instead of a toddler anymore, it's crazy. She's so smart, too. It started raining while I was there and I ran to put my shoes on because I left the windows of my car open. To which Katie said "Auntie N, you're not supposed to leave them open!"

Today, John made me breakfast and I've watched TV and played nintendo all day. It's been great :)
