Well, We got another inch of snow on top of the foot we got last week. Katya had fun in it though. I had to do oil changes on bopth vehicles so that was my excitement today. I got our taxes E-files today as well. It will be nice to get that refund and pay off some of the adoption expense.

This is just sad.... leave it to the narrow-minded, homophobic right wing extremists to ruin everything. Why does everything that promotes tolerance toward others have to encourage people to be gay????? Get a life, people... Or better yet, move to another planet and leave the rest of us alone...

We had nearly a foot of snow. Yesterday we took the Jeep out and did a trail ride - pictures are posted in the offroading section. It was fun running through nearly a foot of powder snow. It didn't pack down under the tires like the wet stuff. Katya loved the snow. She wants to put her snow suit on and go play every chance she gets now.

3" and counting

We're up to 3" of snow here and counting. After Katya gets done napping we'll head out and play for a bit.

Busy weekend

I am so sore today.. I spent Saturday & Sunday helping Fred put a new roof on his house. On Sunday I must have laid 30 bundles of shingle. Thank goodness he got an air hammer or it would have never gotten done...

The only question I have is.... WHY?????? That is just insane. If anything, she should have adopted. Chances are she will be dead before the kid graduates high school.

OK, I'm impressed....

Last night Katya opened the binder of DVDs, took out Finding Nemo, put it in the DVD player, and turned on the TV. When she got tired of watching that one, she took it out, put it back, and put in Monsters Inc. When she was done, she put that one back and turned the TV off.

This weekend we took down Xmas and rearranged the living room. We got 2 rockers from Ikea - boy are they comfy! I've got the same cold that Rain had, so it has been a long weekend. Now we're starting to plan a trip to Paragon Park next month to do some 4 wheeling... It's about time, I'm going through withdrawal.

It is a fun week. Rain has bronchitis so she is home from work sick. Work has been hell, but the first week of the year always is. Katya is doing real well. She is starting to tell us when she has to go pee now so it won't be too much longer that she will be in diapers. Woohoo!

Happy New Year!

This weekend went OK. Katya stayed up till after midnight with the rest of the kids. We had a pretty good party with some of Rain's family. We did the Xmas thing with Rain's sister too.

Scary.. the Tsunami that hit the Indian Ocean has killed 114,000 people. I'm sure that number will go up quite a bit before this is all over with.
