Big Spring Update

I just got an email from my mom:

These are pictures from the alley behind our house, Denny’s, and Jordan’s School. Just to let you know how close it is. The smoke is blowing away from the house so that shouldn’t be a problem.
Love you,
Mom

Here are the pics:

I’m not Dead.

I must say it has been weird not writing over the past few days (this isn’t writing this is me giving an update…or something). But I wanted to give a quick update and let you know that I’ll be back in the saddle as soon as possible.  I had a great weekend with my parents hanging out and painting the nursery.   I’m all relaxed and ready to get back to my blog.

Parents in Town

Sorry for the lack of posts. My parents are in town until Sunday. Just thought I would give a heads up to all my loyal readers (all three of you…well wait….my mom is here with me…so all two of you).

Skiing for Christmas

I must say. Shannon and I just had the greatest Christmas. We got to go skiing all weekend long. As a Christmas gift Shannon’s dad took Shannon, Shannon’s youngest brother and me skiing for the weekend. We got to go to Wolfcreek on Saturday and Sunday. We finished us the trip by going to Purgatory on Christmas day. It really was a blast.

 

Some added news…my mom and step-dad are going to be staying with us New Years Eve weekend. So that should be a lot of fun.
