For Glenn and Kirsten for putting on a wonderful Holiday party under less than Ideal circumstances. That was one of the most fun events we have had.

  • Time to make the doughnuts....
it was a beuatiful thing.

and let it be known that i am the rock, paper, scissors champion as well.

we tied at 11 right and it was a grudge match with us both having one and then it came down to the last throw.

great party we all had a blast and the kids want to go again.
