Not too much going on aside from being busy with work and holiday stuff..

Rajan and Paula's wedding reception was this past Saturday. They had a huge banquet hall reserved and there were tons of Indian relatives and friends and YUMMY Indian food.

Matt and I are finalizing our Christmas plans.. driving down to Santa Rosa Thursday or Friday (22nd or 23rd), driving back to Pacifica late Saturday night, getting up early on Christmas to drive to L.A., then opening gifts with the family and driving to the uncle's place for Christmas with the extended family. Whew. I've almost gotten all my xmas shopping done.. just need to buy one more thing for Mr. Matt which I have no idea..

Next Saturday will be our little gift exchange with the friends which will be at my place. I debating decorating the place but then when we went to Joann's Crafts I was disappointed at the lack of decor available.. so we just got little santa hats to wear instead. Mine says: I believe in Santa Claus. ;)

Went on a really nice ride on Isabella Saturday morning. We explored more trails and found this great little valley with a huge brussel sprout patch. Isabella felt really strong and spirited and gave me a few bucks to indicate she was feeling quite boisterous. I rode a friend's horse, Angel (her mom was out of town) for a short ride after putting Isabella away.. Angel is an 18 year old, highly trained western pleasure horse. Soooooo different than Isabella. It was pretty fun to ride a horse so different. Angel was like driving a big luxury vehicle.. Isabella is more like a zippy little sports car..
