Let's see, what's been going on since Halloween? All is well. We bought new windows for the old part of the house and will see if that will help with the heating bill this year. (We had many that wouldn't even open, most needed books propped up to stay open and they were very cold.) I am happy about it the most because now I can clean the windows from inside and open them on the top or bottom and the light shines through so well with clean windows. Yeah. We've arranged to have our property line dug out and hope that will eliminate the trouble when it rains. It really is too complicated to explain ....but, I hope it works. Tara went to her cheer banquet yesterday and recieved a trophy, dvd of herself cheering and a necklace with a cheer charm from her coaches. Gene has headed to Florida for a brother's reunion so we'll miss him for a few days but are happy that he is happy at the beach. We have finished gymnastics and the girls want to take ballet now and Jake really just needs his own padded room to romp in. We have bought our tickets to the Nutcracker and are anxiously awaiting the date. Santa is already at our mall and "the grinch" was already on tv, so we put up our tree on Sunday. No ornaments of course, just the lights. Emily and Jake decorated it Monday morning with any toy that would hang, necklaces, purses, etc. Everyone is healthy and happy and we hope you are too.
