Well the holidays are over & everything has somewhat gotten back to normal around here. Gary has finally gone back to work after being on vacation for the last two weeks. The holidays are always so hectic around here and even more so when Gary is home & we are trying to get some projects done around the house. Unfortunately his vacation is never much of a vacation, instead just a chance to finish up household chores. At last we are finally done replacing every single old, ugly window in our house with new dual paned windows. We also replaced our back door & built a new storage unit during his vacation. Hopefully this storage unit will provide better protection for our stuff than the old one did in case we get flooded again.
Christmas was as usual a lot of fun. We really enjoy getting to spend time with the family. I don't think we saw our house more than a couple hours a day for the whole week of Christmas. It actually is kinda nice that way because if we aren't home to make any messes then that's just less housework I have to do. The kids got a power wheels truck from Santa & they have had a lot of fun with it. We've loaded it up & taken it with us to grandparents' houses & to the fairgrounds one day and let them ride it. It has prepared us for what a crazy driver Alyssa is & will be when she gets older. Bryant likes to get in it & play with the radio. Probably sooner than we like he'll figure out how to operate the rest of it. Well anyways, I was going to post some pictures from Christmas, but for some reason it won't let me upload them so I will have to try to do that part later. Hope everyone had a good Christmas & Happy New Year.
