Ok...Ok... I know! I have not been keeping up with this, but recently lost my ability to upload pictures quickly and have not recovered. This may be coming soon with the installation of a upload satellite at the new house. Until then, no pictures.

However, we have been busy. We are now in the house (21 months after breaking ground) and it is still not done. Cabinet guys were there finishing pillars in kitchen, shelves in Living Room, and the fireplace mantle. If I could show pictures, they would include alot of boxes. See, we moved as Christmas break began for the kids and underestimated amount of time they would require. Cindy is kinda looking forward to school starting again so she can get rid of 2 for a large part of the day. On top of that, we were hit pretty hard with illness. Multiple ear infections, coughs, sniffles, runny noses, pink eye, sore throats, etc... I think we may be coming out of it now as everyone seems to be able to sleep at night and noone needs to carry a bucket with them all day.

The holidays were hectic with a trip to Iowa for saturday prior to christmas, trip to Crete on christmas eve day, then back home for a late night wrapping on christmas eve. Finally, christmas day, at home, nowhere to go, and lots of toys to play with. Only responsibility was for food and diapers. Tuesday morning and work came back to quick. Hope everyones holidays were pleasant, everyone had a chance to slow down, and everyone enjoyed their families, if only for a short while.
