New year, new blog entry, right?

Ok, so I'm going to try and blog a little more often this year - and get into the habit (as Josh put it). So for the 2 or 3 of you that actually read my blog from time to time, thank you - and here's the latest.

First and foremost - Happy New Year! It's going to be a busy one in our family. In June (or maybe July) Lesley is going to become a big sister! We don't know yet if we are having a boy or girl, but we do plan to find out (I know - takes away some of the surprise). Not long after that, we'll be celebrating Betsy and Dathan's wedding in October. Congratulations to you both!

We ended 2008 on a sad note, as my Grandma Norris passed away in November, but we are looking forward to many good things this year.

We're enjoying our "Chamber of Commerce" weather this week (as the rest of the country is literally freezing in Arctic air) and still working on home projects (though the bathroom tile is coming along) and getting ready for my parents to visit at the end of the month. Dad is retiring on Jan 30 - so they are coming out to babysit Lesley as I teach a Nutrition class (and to soak up some warmth and sunshine!).

I hope you are all doing well across the country - and I'll blog more later. I've got a whole rant stored up about trying to get water this morning (it involves shopping carts that can't cross boundary lines).

Cheers and best wishes!
