Hey Ken. Well, I'm still here for now. It's hard to leave. 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.

Later,=20
