Where Did Christmas Go?

I'm not sure were the time from Thanksgiving to Christmas went but I'm sure it did not involve me.

On Thanksgiving Day, Dru convinced Dallas and I to run a 5K run in Davis County. Dru ran the 10K. I did better than I thought I would and in my age catagory I came in 7th out of 17. I think Dru did well but she was slightly disappointed. Dallas won a 1st place blue ribbon for being the fastest fat guy in the Davis County on Thanksgiving Day. I Am So Proud!

For Christmas Dallas and I decided to get new Granite Counter Tops for our kitchen and laundry room. We spent a lot of time look at Granite and finally found a slab that we both liked and could afford. I will post pictures when it is done on January 8th.

I finally got by car back on Christmas Eve. It looks great and it feels good to be driving my own little car although the rental was nice and I could have this "I don't care" attitude. Mud on the shoes, I don't care. Dog barf, I don't care, except that I did have to use the shop vac to suck it all up, but I wasn't like dang.

Dallas, Dru and I did have a Gingerbread House contest with graham crackers. All three of the house were very creative but it was my purple trailer trash with hitch and old tires stacked behind that won the 1st place prize. I feel pretty good about this win!

Christmas was nice and we were blessed to share it with family and friends.

I hope we have some time to think in January. Although I usually hate January because it is dark and cold, but I could use some time to think and get the carpets cleaned.

I just want to note that I have been blogging for a year now. It was my goal to blog at least once a month and I noticed that I have 16 blogs for the year. I achieved my goal. This is good!
Have A Happy New Year!!!!!

The Crash!!!!!!

I don't know what to say other than a picture is worth a thousand words and it wasn't my fault.
