here i am! i havent forgotten to blog, just still buried under the plague of sicknesses STILL running through our house. We had to cancel our trip to Georgia because of the UGLY bug that keeps coming back - we're pretty sure it's the norovirus or 'cruise ship' virus, which has been going around here lately. Poor Vann just gets over being sick only to be hit with something else a couple days later. So we are quarantining ourselves at home over the holidays to try and eradicate the thing and get on with our lives!!! Jody and Scott came up over last weekend and we had a great time running around the city with them, but then they both got very ill at the airport on the way home!! I'm not sure they will ever come back!! We are really bummed not being able to travel to see family, especially since we stayed home for Thanksgiving as well!

We did had our first winter storm of the season come through and dump lots and lots of beautiful snow on us. Ava and I built a 'special' snowman. He looks a little like Jabba the Hut to me... Jayme and Vann watched from the window.

Here's a couple recent pics....
