We have all t= aken quite a bit of time off (out all last week and a couple of days the we= ek before that.) I'll only be here a couple of hours today. But we had a = great Christmas. The kids have been so excited. I made the mistake of get= ting a couple of microphones/sirens for their tricycles. You can hear them= all through our neighborhood. The neighbors have already asked my what I = was thinking. Cole wanted 3 things (a play airport, a pirate ship, and Buz= z Lightyear). He got them all. With each present, he kept getting louder = and more excited. Jake was primarily interested in in opening presents, he= didn't care what was in them. That kid gets more out of ripping things up= and tearing things down than any kid I have ever seen. In fact, the other= day, Cole and I were stacking his big leggo blocks as high as we could go.= Cole likes to make things and he likes them neat and orderly. So, he was= working hard at making this tower stand up and work (it ended up being abo= ut eight feet tall). Well Jake was chomping at the bit to run through it. = After holding him off for a few minutes, I let him go. You should have se= en his eyes light up. You would have thought it was the biggest event of t= he year. He tore through it, smiling all the way, saying "again, again." = It has been so fun spending extra time with the kids. My mom and sister ca= me in the weekend before Christmas. Tonya's parents and sister came in Fri= day. With the couple of days between their visits, I remodeled our downsta= irs bathroom (strip wallpaper, paint, hung a border, hung crown molding). = That was my first try with crown molding. It turned out ok. Thank the Lord= for wood putty. So, we've been pretty busy. But, it's been fun. How was your Christmas? Was Santa Claus good to you? I guess your kids we= re in. I hope you had a wonderful time. I'm looking forward to Corn Boys = bowl game. Anyway, I need to go make a call on a tee time. Tonya's dad an= d I decided that we would pay good money to get mad and lose a bunch of bal= ls and break a few clubs, while out in the cold. It doesn't make much sens= e, does it? But then again, most things that men do don't make much sense.
