i was just thinking about when i can commit time to update...i figured fridays are the best day cause i don't have to work at that place which is 32 miles away...so I am dedicating at least my fridays for updating!!!

that said...New Years was pretty fun.  Me, the wife and kids all stayed home and made new years gingerbread houses.  I couldn't believe that this was my wife's very first house!  so she took some extra time on it and made it look awesome.  The kids and I made some for Christmas, but we had a party here with my sister and her family....my niece, who is 11, was picking her nose the ENTIRE day/night.  And then she was touching ALL of our gingerbread houses.  We decided to make new ones for fear of having a little "surprise" waiting for us when we decided to eat them.  Normally we make them for Christmas then eat them New Years Eve.  so the booger houses were tossed out and we ate the newly made ones with that welches sparkling grape juice!!!  it was fun.

ima try to keep up on this thing thru the week...but i can't make any promises....lol
