Well, we're all up-to-date now. And now that we've found all of the paraphernalia related to our camera, hopefully future posts will include photos. January is already 1/2 way over and it seems like we were just in CA last week. How time does fly. We've been keeping ourselves busy with a small group that we're hosting at our house each week. There are 3 other couples and we're going through the books The Excellent Wife (for the ladies) and The Exemplary Husband (for the men). We're encouraged by the opportunities for service that our new church affords and will be under consideration for membership in the members meeting later this month. It's still snowing here on a regular basis (for example, yesterday) and it's nice to see the clean freshness after a night of snow (although we try not to go outside more than necessary - poor Ivan still walks to the train station every day).

On Saturday night (after a full day of snowing) we went out with some friends to a pizza place in Long Island which, we were told, has the best pizza on Long Island. The pizza was surely delicious and the company was great - although we all decided that probably the drive wasn't worth it considering the weather conditions. But we had a great night and only "lost control" on the road twice. (I put "lost control" in quotes, because the second time our friend was driving and he looked to be in complete control even though we were sliding into the intersection.) Thankfully, no damage was done and we had a great time.
