We hope everyone had a great Christmas!
We had a very nice Christmas this year. David & Josh came home from Georgia for the holidays, and Josh will be staying here when David leaves to go back to work. Mo-Mo has been a highlight to David's trip, she came completely unglued when they got here!!! She's been pretty depressed since they left so it's been wonderful to see her smiling so much again. Yes, she is one of those dogs that smiles. The down side is that every time he goes anywhere she gets upset all over again.

I want to wish a belated Happy Birthday to our niece Sarah, who's birthday was on the 19th.

Congratulations are in order for two of our most loved people.
Big Congatulations
to Heather and Russ.
Heather is our niece that came to visit last year around the holidays. Russ popped the question and surprised her with a ring for Christmas.

Congratulations also to Richard and Kadi. Although they are not officially engaged (as in no ring yet) they are planning to marry. Her and her daughter will be moving in with him tomorrow.

So December is just zooming by already, isn't it? I've been busy making Holiday Sets for Rhonda's Originals as well as just keeping busy with holiday things in general. The sets I've done don't seem like much work but each stripe that went into the backgrounds prior to the alterations were layed one at a time. Come to think of it, so was the background for this. In fact, now that I think of it, the background for this was the base for the background for the Nativity Set. But I'm rambling again. If you're not into making graphics it'll all be Greek anyway.
Go check them out so it won't be for nothing.
Take them. Use them. Please.
That's what they are there for.

Jon moved in with us. If you're not sure who he is, visit out photo pages. His new roommate was a bad situation waiting to happen. It never hurts to have someone else with an income and car living in the house, not to mention his true calling is as a stand-up comic.

David is settling into his new job and has gotten to spend some time with his parents in FL. Josh hasn't had any luck finding work and may be staying here when they come home for Christmas. Big Mike got hired on at Gulfstream too, so at least David will still have a roommate there. In the "small world" category.... It turns out that the only people David has met at his new job who are from Texas are from Waco also. Not only are they from Waco, but at one time they were contractors where he used to work. Not only were they contractors where he used to work, but.... get this.... they used to live in OUR DRIVEWAY! Yep, you heard me right. At one time they lived in a motor home in the driveway of the house that we live in.
Is that strange or what?

Craig was in the Christmas Parade yesterday. I will have pictures up soon. My nephew showed up with my great-nieces so it was extra special for me and my dad :)
