New Year... New Crap....

I know it's been a while.... give me a break.. I lost my job in November and have been really stressed out lately. Will was laid off last year, but found a job in September, so it was like we swapped places.

Anyway, Thanksgiving and Christmas flew by.. they were great! New Years Eve, we spent and the house, playing games with Porter all night. It was so much fun. Will and I attended the 7th Annual Christmas Luau with our friends on the 16th of December. But I forgot my cameral, so no pics... I need to get some emailed to me from people who did remember their camera's. Also, Porter turned 8 last weekend (Jan. 10th). I cannot believe he is that old. It has flown by.

My younger brother (Kale), and his wife (Brittany), announced last month that they are expecting!!! I AM GOING TO BE AN AUNT!!! I am so excited, I can't stand it! Brittany is due late July/early August. They are going to be GREAT parents. My Mom is really excited too. She is going to be a Grandma!! (well, she already kinda was...)

My youngest brother (Everett), got his girlfriend (Nina) a puppy for her birthday, which was this past Monday (Jan. 11th). And I bet you can't guess what kind of puppy it is...??...?? ~~ hahahahaha ~~ a Weenie Dog (Dachshund) of course!! What else would it be?? He is the cutest little thing. They named him Albert (after one of Ev's favorite authors) and his coloring is called "Piebald". Basically, he is white with black spots and an undertone of brown spots. Definitely cute!! (I forgot my camera when I saw him, so I will post pics soon.)

Anyway, that's about all the news I have for now. Cecil and Red are still being Cecil and Red, they are good boys.
