I'm Still Here

I can't believe we are already 5 days into this month and I am only just now posting.

I'm so busy trying to get organized so that I can get things done, that I'm not getting anything done.

Well to get you all caught up, we had a really fun Christmas Eve with Mike's family.

Followed by a Christmas morning full of surprises.

Like this one:

Mike surprised the family with that new grill we've been needing...

or did he?

A new iMac!  What?

And if that wasn't enough,

he surprised me with this

Cookie!

We named her/him (we're not 100% sure yet)

after one of our own Pittsburgh Penguins, Matt Cook, because she's an

instigator.  Haha!

I promise to take some more pictures of the front of her/his face soon. :)

Mike really is the best gift giver.

I mean, he did give me these guys. 

That middle one there turned 20 today. TWENTY!

VENTI!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AARON!

YOU ARE LOVED!!!

So on that note, I will leave you with a sketch of what I plan 

on painting today.

I've been saying that for days, but this time I mean it.
