Happy New Year!!

Happy new year to everyone!

We spent new year's eve working on drywall at the addition job...

At the beginning of the day the boys got started on the sheet-rocking.

For the first half of the day I was the supervisor/mudding guy.

Mudding is the best part, in my humble opinion. I don't know why I enjoy it so much, but I do.

So, we had a contest to see if I could keep up with the mudding as the other guys hung the drywall.

It was a pretty even competition for a while... until Dad arrived in the afternoon and started helping :)

Then I started getting behind :)

All in all, though, we had a really great time!

I ended up loosing to the drywall hangers... 

I was about 1 hour's worth behind them, in the end...

Great job guys!

We're working a half day tomorrow, so hopefully I can catch up then!! :)

We came home and were greeted with a tasty snack-supper.

The girls and mom prepared all kinds of goodies for a new-year's celebration.

A couple random shots...

After supper, Sam had something to show Dad on the computer...

And the girls were still munching :)

Tonight Emily and I decided to stay up and usher in the new year... everyone else is going to bed!

After work tomorrow we're having a skating party at a local fish pond, with a chili supper afterward at church. We're all really looking forward to that :)

God's blessings to you all in the new year- may your lives grow closer to Him and deeper in consecration to His service and kingdom!!
