I went and traded in the Chevy for a Dodge. ya ya, whyd you buy a dodge, blah blah. We all love it. Its bigger in the back, 4wd, 50k miles, and easier to clean on the inside, no carpet, all vinyl. Our note is much cheaper, too.

We had a lot of snow this year, with more coming today, apparently


Luke is a performer. He loves to make people laugh


Jack had a legendary birthday. I'll post pics of his party when we get them developed. They are on a waterproof camera. His interest in toys is awesome. He likes toys that are puzzles, magnets, blocks, magic, and things that make you think.

Here is one of Jack's buildings. He builds probably 30 structures a day. He likes to set them up as domino runs, too.
