Catch Up

I have not written much on our blog. I will do my best to catch everyone up on what is going on with us. We came back from NC in mid December and we seem to have been super busy, with what I don't know.

In January, Gilbert went on a business trip to the Dominican Republic for a week. He had a good time while he was there but his mean wife sent him with the camera that doesn't work very good. So he was not able to take any pictures.

We had a Super Bowl party at our house. It was very nice and everyone had a great time. The commercials, which is my favorite part of the Super Bowl, were a major disappointment. Gilbert and I did not partake in any of the activities in Miami for the Super Bowl. I felt like I was missing out on something on Saturday by not going to South Beach but then I thought about having to drive well over an hour to get there because of traffic (normally it takes 20 minutes). Once we got there we would have had to spend hours to find parking, if we were lucky to find parking they were charging $100 to park. Then we would have waited hours to get back home. After thinking about the headache I would endour to get on South Beach, I settled on going to the dog park and had a wonderful time.

Sorry to disappoint everyone, but we really don't have exciting news to report. As for the random picture at the top. I have started a new hobby, Orchids. My neighbor has inspired me to try Orchids. My grandmother was very good with them so I hope to follow in her footsteps. Right now I have two in the house and the picture up top is one of them.
