Snow....in Georgia?!?!?

First let me start by saying that I have never seen someone get as excited about the CHANCE of snow as Jennifer got last week. She was pumped that it might snow. Of course, being a member "Gloom and Doom" as I have been described, I said it would not snow more than an inch - if any! Well if you combine the two dustings we got, we might have topped an inch....but I doubt it!!

Anyways, Saturday turned out to be a ton of fun. Sometime right around noon or so we headed over to Craig and Kim's to play with Sara and Davis in the snow. What I thought would be a relaxing day whatching kids in the snow turned into an all out assault by 3 adults on an army of kids from the nieghborhood. Craid, a nieghbor of his and I started a snowball fight with what turned out to be about 15 kids (anwyere from 5 to probably 13 years old). I tried to take it easy on the little kids, but the bigger kids were letting us have it...so naturally we let them have it right back.

Now, the best part was watching Jennifer get nailed with one snowball after another. When we got to Craig and Kim's, Jennifer declared that Craig was going to get it. As any younger sister should know, that declaration opened the door for the older brother to let her have it. Within about 2 minutes of being outside, Craig had Jennifer pinned in the snow and she got to taste the snow for the first time in years. Little did she know, that was not the end of it. She was pelted with several snowballs over the next hour or so.

It was a lot of fun, I only wish that we really could have seen the 5" of snow that the "experts" (a term which I use very lightly) said we would get.

My new hobby

It seems that I come up with a new hobby just about every couple of months. My most recent obsession is photography. I took some pictures at Christmas and then did some photo editing and here are some of the ones I like (most of these are pictures of my cousins).



Happy New Year!

It has been a while since I posted anything. In the time between now and the last post we have had Christmas and New Years. Jennifer and I had a lot of fun over Christmas seeing both of our families a lot. With my family, Christmas comes with a lot of food - and I am not just talking about on Christmas Day. We generally start eating on the 23rd and stop sometime right after Christmas :) This year was different because my family that lives in New York could not come down. If I have my thinking right, this was the first year in something like 18 years that they have not been down here for Christmas. Anyways, Santa gave me a GPS for my truck and he also gave Jennifer a pink sapphire and diamond necklace.

We spent New Years over at one of Jennifer's sorority sisters' house. Typically we don't do too much for New Years, but this year we decided to hang out with Kimberly and Tyson and several other couples and it was a lot of fun. We ate at Ted's Montana Grill. I love that place. They have bison burgers which I love!

Now that the new year has started, I guess there is not much I can say about what all has gone on so far. Jennifer is back to school and I am back at work. It will not be long and we will have been married for 2 years. I know, it is crazy to think it has been two years already. It seems like it was just a fews month ago.....Oh well, lets hope this year is as good as the last!
