It's been awhile since anyone wrote but with all the holidays and getting together here and there, I think we've been able to keep in touch more than usual. Here are a few more pictures of the Christmas party from Frank and Melissa:

So the holidays were fairly low key for me. I worked most of the days on a project that I made good progress on. It's an organization program that will allow us to see who's working on what and how much progress is being made. It will be very useful if we intend to scale and grow. The economy has made things difficult for all companies including ours as most of what we do depends on advertising and the first thing to go in a tough economy is advertising.
I also made good progress on the second bathroom upstairs over the holidays, getting new tile down and getting it painted. Weekend manual labor has it's positives and negatives. I enjoy the work therapy but only doing it occasionally my knees and back don't hold out that well and I'm sore afterwards. But... as of now, I have three extra bedrooms with beds and two extra bathrooms.... all clean so guests are welcome!
It's been enjoyable to spend time with almost all of you at some time over the break. I'm so grateful that my good friends are may brothers and sisters and their spouses and children and my dad and Mom. Love you all!!! Hope everyone is looking forward to a good year in 2009!
