The other day my wife wrote a wonderful post singing my praises and I didn't even know it until I just read it today!! How terrible! Shows you just how often I read blogs? Honestly, I've been swamped at work and haven't taken time to read much of anything online.
Anyway, I just wanted to let the world know that I have the most wonderful wife in the world!! She is so incredibly thoughtful. She puts everyone before herself and sacrifices so much for our family. She pours so much of her time into taking care of me and the kids that she often neglects herself. Trying to wrap my mind around that kind of thinking is difficult for me since I tend to be rather self-centered! :( Everything she does is done with a motive of love. She is truly the most genuine, unconditionally loving person I've ever met. She doesn't just do this for our family because it's her duty, but because she really loves to do it!!! She is truly amazing!!! For all of you that read this that are married, I hope that you can say the same about your spouse. If not, take a look at your relationship and see just how well you are doing and try to honor your spouse and family by living like Kendra, who ultimately strives to emulate Christ in everything that she does. She has been and is the best example of Christ's love that I have in my life. I learn a lot from watching my wife live her life. She is truly a God send!!!

I'M BACK!!!!
Well, folks, I know it's been a long time (in case you didn't notice I last posted in March), but I have finally returned to the world of blogging.
I hope life is finding you all grand. Life here has been busy and is about to get busier. A new year is upon us and with that ushers in the ever dreaded tax season. This will be my second tax season working in this line of work and I must say...I'm not looking forward to it. But alas, I will suffer through it in order to receive my weekly paycheck. :)
Christmas at our house was good this year. Kendra's folks came over on Christmas Eve and stayed all night. It was nice to have them there while the kids opened their presents at 6:30 am!!! My parents dropped by for about an hour and then rushed off to my brothers' houses. We went NO WHERE!!! We spent the whole day at home.
For New Year's Eve, we went to Kendra's sister's house and played games all night long. We slept on an air matress in her living room. Our kids stayed up until almost 2 a.m.!! It was nuts. We were awakened (Is that right?) at 5 a.m. to the sound of baby toys going off. Lukas or Zack kicked them in their sleep and they began playing music. The boys were up at 8 and got up to play while the rest of us were up at about 9:30. We were all exhausted, but we had a good day.
Getting home from Coshocton was quite interesting, however. The weather called for about an inch of snow and that was it. Well, it took us two hours to get home because when we hit Newark, OH we were driving on a sheet of ice. We ended up getting about 3 inches!! It's still on the ground. It has been about 20 degrees the last couple of days and right now (at 4:30 p.m.) it is 37!! Whoo Hoo!!! Heat wave!!! :)
Well, that is our holiday in a nutshell. I'll stop rambling on now. It's good to be back in the blog-o-sphere!!!
