We Sure Had Fun Today, Didn't We Stimpy?

It may seem that my New Year's resolution is to post less than ever to this here bloggy, but I swear that is not the case! To make up for it I've got a slew of pictures for y'all! First the Christmas Cute...

A boy and his tree.

So then the lil' nuclear family spent New Years in Tahoe, which is exactly as awesome as it sounds. The fabulous Karelypants had her 40th birthday bash, the Blumes put us up in their adorable house, and the Hub, Bub, and I got out for a cross country ski (with the oh so cool Chariot Carrier).

And one additional outcome of the road trip was that we traveled through real cities, will stores and everything! And now that the Bub is eating stuff off a spoon, we thought it might be time to get him one of those crazy new fangled high chairs. And these days, let me tell you, they are new AND fangled. We went to some Babies R Us or Superstore or somethin' and they were all over $150! Fortunately our travels also took us relatively close to an Ikea as well, where we picked up this little "Antilop" gem for less than $25! Of course we spent the rest of that $150 on other vital items at the old-blow-the-budget Ikea. But boy was it fun.


So on to current news! We woke up this morning thinking we had a dusting of snow on the porch from the storm last night...


But lo and behold, it wasn't snow, but an awful lot of hail!

Looks pretty though. Happy new year, y'all!
