Recent events for us

Things are going well in SW Florida. We moved into the new house in September and the kids haven't had to change schools midstream. The house and neighborhood are wonderful. Nicole and Chloe saw an alligator this week in one of the lakes we walk the dog by every day. There are plenty of sidewalks and not too many people yet. The university (I'll capitalize it if it every gets over 2000 students. Current count is about 700 and that is less than most middle schools.) is well funded and growing. The town center opened its first restaurant before Christmas.

It was cold yesterday and colder today. I like to froze my nudget off walking the dog this morning. The town still has all its Christmas lights up. Zach and Chloe got a Wii for Christmas and we had fun visiting the Nick hotel and then family and friends in Georgia. I enjoyed seeing everyone and catching up.

The Friday before we left we had Jeremy and his family over. I cooked a standing rib roast and Nicole's moms potato casserole and Nicole's green beans. It was delicious if I do say so myself. We made Jeremy take the leftovers home and when his shift relieved me yesterday he said he had stuffed himself on it for days on after. I wish now that I had invited more friends over as I rarely get to see the ones that work on the other side of the week unless I'm working overtime.

I'm glad to see you've joined the blogosphere. I'll link to your blog on my blog. Before you know it, my family will be reading your blog as well (they are the only ones who read mine). Come to think of it, I think you're the only non-related person I ever told about my blog. I meant to tell Marc, but I didn't. I'll tell him this weekend, he is supposed to come over and see "Crysis" on my wicked new computer.

Another thing, Mo. I realized a couple of weeks ago that people were having trouble posting on my blog because I had something selected on my profile that didn't allow for anonymous responses. Your blog says the same thing. You may want to check it out and select something that will allow anyone to post responses.
