We left Houston and stopped in at home for a few hours to sleep and then got up and headed north to Tulsa for New Years. It was a pleasant trip, Greerson watched the thirds season of The Lucy Show most of the trip. We got there about five pm and checked into the hotel and made it to Steve and Carol's about six to discover we were the first ones there. Bob and Sheryl were about thirty minutes behind us. David and Rox made it and we have brisket for dinner and sat around talking until just after midnight. It actually was kind of anticlimatic, but we enjoyed each others company. New Years day we decided to take the kids ice skating in downtown Tulsa. It was a lot of fun. The kids really seemed to enjoy it. There was a heated tent for the adults and we enjoyed that since it had gotten cold overnight. We watched a dance team (Sheryl argued that they were a theatre troupe) sing and dance for a little bit then headed back to the warm house. We enjoyed Mexican Train and Catch Phrase while we were there. The time really flew by and it was time to leave. We had a nice drive home. The traffic was a little heavy, but not too bad. Greerson is out of school until January 11, so he has been enjoying playing with his friends this week. We have been playing the Wii every night. The favorite games would be "curling", "Figure skating" and "cart racing". We have a good time.
