Happy Thanksgiving!


Hey everyone...

Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

We went over to Paula's mom's house this year. My mom and dad came down the mountain. Micah and Michele also showed up and brought my little niece, Elise. We also were able to visit with Grandpa Ken and Uncle Bill and we were so glad that they could come over.

We had plenty of good eats and desserts. Oh, man, was I completely stuffed!
I also played a little football out in the yard with the kids. It is fun chasing them around and hearing them laugh.

What a great day! I hope yours was too...

Meet the Maxima

I didn't realize how much time has gone by since my last update. Incredible how time flies! I'll try to do a better job of updating and putting pictures up for everyone to check out.
Now to the great news! I have a new car! Yahoo!
This is my first new car in quite some time. It isn't brand new, but close. I traded in my 1996 Toyota Tercel for a 2005 Nissan Maxima. It looks similar to the one below:

It is a nice blue color with a light tan interior and a moon roof. It has a 3.5 liter V6 engine and runs very smooth. I love driving to work now. I don't have to shift AND I have good accelerating power.
Of course the trade off is that I have car payments now, but I got a pretty good deal on this car. It had only 6500 miles on it and I was able to get a discount on the price through my work.
I also had some work done on the paint and got the back windows tinted this week while I have been on a business trip in Iowa. So, I am looking forward to getting back and seeing how it looks.
