January is almost Over!?!

Since I'm a blogging slacker, here is a review of the past few months. I don't have yet pictures to show off our new house and recent projects. But here are a few things you can see in the background of some Nagol pics.

Here is Nagol enjoying the first snowfall at the end of October. In the background you can see the back of the detached garage and the back of the house. If you look carefully, you can see part of Semaj's motorcycle that he received from his father and rebuilt this summer. That was one of our summer projects that I haven't gotten around to telling about. It looks really cool now, but it has since been having some transmission problems. Oh well.

Here, Nagol is showing off some of the monsters made from his new ki-nex toys that he got for Christmas. You see that empty corner on the right? Well, the left hand corner used to look the same. That wood burning stove was removed by the previous owner as he was remodeling. We decided that we wanted it back in so we did it. We did the tile work there and at the front door too so that they would match. Semaj then welded together a support box to put in the ceiling and then put it all together. And there you have it. Though now one of the pipes is apparently missing a final coat or something because what it did have on, started burning and peeling off. But everything else works great!
As you can see here, Nagol LOVES swinging so we were very glad to have this swing in our new backyard.



Oh, and did you all know the proper way to eat a burrito?
Nagol will demonstrate for you.



The edges are apparently a lot tastier than the rest.

The following are my favorite Christmas pictures.

I like those pictures. I love Nagol's face in the picture of doing the gingerbread house.

Those are awesome pics Carolioness! Here are some of the thoughts that went through my head as I saw them:
Cool monsters!
Good job (again) on the tile and wood stove. They look great.
Whoa! That's a lot of kids in red plaid (around the tree).
It looks like y'all stayed up a bit late last night! But good job cuddling!
Fun! Thanks again!
