2007 is here!

Happy New Year! 2007 is here!!!

Get this, although I was exhausted from New Year's eve, I got myself to the gym to train on New Year's day. It was one of the best chest workouts I have had this off-season. I benched 225lbs. for 10 reps!!!! Somehow I had neglected to mention this until now, but I have a new trainer! I have been working with her for the last few months and things are going quite well! I had spent the last few years working with Big G of Team Autumn which was great, this year though, I have decided to try something different.

The holidays were great, I had a wonderful time with my family. I will admit that I'm happy the Christmas season has passed though. I have a wild sweet-tooth and I consumed more than my fair share of goodies. Although my weight is up significantly, I wouldn't trade those days for anything. This season was filled with constant get-togethers and parties, it was tough to avoid the holiday cheer.

This year was particularly special for my family because it was our first Christmas with my brother's baby boy. He was 5 months old as of December 22nd. I absolutely adore him, he is such a wonderful, happy baby.

As busy as the holidays were, I found some time to rent a bunch of movies I hadn't seen yet. I'm pretty far behind on the new releases..I seldom get to the theater and I don't often make time to rent them. There are some great movies available. The movie I enjoyed the most was Lucky Number Slevin...

Well, I'm working today so, I should get going....

I'll leave you with a few pics from the holidays of me and the love of my life....my nephew Juliano!
