Christmas Vacation

We just returned from our Christmas vacation to Kernersville, North Carolina. It was so fun to spend time with Nick's family. While we were there we tried to help with their kitchen renovations (i.e picking out door knobs, figuring out how to use their new appliances, putting in the new sink). We love doing home renovation stuff. We also helped organize Harry's office.

We had a good time shooting guns (apparently I am good at shooting a .22 rifle). That was really fun. We also went to Asheville, North Carolina and toured the Biltmore Estate. So Amazing!! It is the largest estate in the United States. It took us an hour and a half to get through 62 rooms. I think there are over 200 rooms. Anyway, I was in heaven. It was beautifully decorated with lots of Christmas decorations. The scenery was so serene. We had a great time. We also ate at my favorite Japanese place three times (it is still my favorite place in the world!!) Most of all, it was very nice to be able to relax and spend time with Nick's family.

Our New Blog

Welcome to our new blog. I have started this blog because we would like to stay better connected to our family and friends. Hopefully I will understand Blogspot better then I did MySpace.

The first slideshow I uploaded is of the ice storm in December 2007. Most of the pictures are of broken trees. It was really amazing to see how one storm could take down over 1 million trees in Oklahoma. We still have lots of downed trees along the sides of all the roads, but most everything else is back to normal.
