New pics are added today. More to come soon. We have a snow (ice) day today so there are bound to be pics from the fun outside! You will see in the album on the left a picture of Caleb's name which he wrote all by himself, a set of three pics where Caleb consoles Nathan, some more cute pics of Caleb holding Nathan, and some other super cute pics of Nathan and Caleb! I'm also working on getting some video uploaded but am having some tech difficulties getting from the camera. Maybe today will provide me the time to figure that out :) Here's to hoping anyway!

It is 2009 and we are doing well. The holidays were great for us. Caleb is a great big brother and Nathan is growing up so quickly. There are many uploaded pics in the flickr album on the left. Some highlights are pics of Caleb loving in Nathan, Christmas morning with Caleb's train table (which he LOVES), and some cute pics from our outing at the Cowboy Hall of Fame. We are back to being healthy after a 2 week stint of RSV (Nathan) and an off and on again cold (Caleb). Happy new year to each of you and more will come soon!

National Championship

Being a sports fan, today is a fun day...the college football national championship will be won or lost tonight in Miami.  I have found it interesting, now living in a place where the local school is playing for the title game, to see the sports fever alive and well.  

Living on the left coast for the past 10 years, I can't recall the last time I've lived in a place where college fever is everywhere (no USC doesn't count because 10 years ago when I came to Cali I couldn't find USC fans only UCLA fans, and mysteriously that population shifted with the hiring of a certain Pete Carroll, or maybe a few more wins a year).  OU mania is full and very visible today. Literally, at the gas station, the bank and at school today, that has been the topic of conversation.  All the radio stations are talking about it, it is all over the news, papers, local Internet.  It definitely is a different perspective vs. living in Malibu and getting ready to watch the game tonight where a very small number of the populous could find Norman, OK on a map!  What is going to be fascinating is what happens tomorrow.  I am confident that a win won't bring flaming couches, but a loss might.  Being an OSU fan, I am going to cheer for the local team but win our lose , I just want a great game for the sports fans out there.
