We had a wonderful Christmas and Christmas Eve.. I'll let the photos speak for themselves (also experimenting with listing the videos on PicasaWeb, let me know what you think).
Blogger turns gold! Since that is the blog site you are currently looking at, I thought a story about it coming out of beta was a nice add here. It's been a really nice experience using this site and I would recommend it to anyone.
I can't believe that Christmas is in 5 short days... and the days have been short lately. We have Christmas letters made up and most mailed out, I will try to convert it into a web page as well. There is a phone number here you can call and hear a message from Santa that is different daily and Carson has loved listening to Santa after school. I just read a story about Santa using MS Live Messenger, that crazy Santa really knows how to keep up with the times.
LIFE CHANGING TIPS AND TRICKS!!!! This week we have, How to make a Christmas card star... looks to be something very cool to do with all those really nice cards you get, rather than just making a pile with them.
What a very cool commercial/parody... and yes, I LOVE 24.
Jenni's parent arrive on Friday via car... Grandma Norton by plane. Then Saturday her brother flies in. Should make for a very festive Christmas. I'll be sure to keep the camera "loaded".
So I slightly changed the look of the blog.. it was a little too "caffeinated" with those other colors. I also added another site to my link list, Paul Thurrott's blog, he runs the SuperSite for Windows which is a great Windows resource. I am very much enjoying his weekly podcast from Twit.TV with Leo LaPorte. Another of my favorites from Twit is Security Now with Steve Gibson... both are really great programs, I would recommend you listen if you have the interest in either topic.
I have a work gathering today in Bloomington, so I'm making this entry short and sweet.... well, ok it's going to be short.
Still tired from last night, but none of the patches I put on required a reboot which was really nice. So let's get to the meat of our HumpDay programming.
So it's 1am and I'm done patching my servers and workstations... if you know what that means and you haven't checked your machines for updates, do it now. If you don't know what that means, nod and pretend you know what I mean. (Patch Tuesday)
Sunday Carson went to a birthday party for his friends Katie and Maddie's birthday party (Their dad and mom I went to High School with, Charlie and Lauri). He had a really great time and there were tons of kids PLUS there was a clown (no, not Charlie).
Oh, in that album is us making a GingerBread house with Carson after the Birthday party.. it was all fun and games until someone crammed their face in the icing.
So, let's skip the topic of the Colt's... I'm still mad about that thing some people called a game. ugh
Have you guys seen this search site? Talk about searching with attitude... I had a few chuckles but will stick with my google.
It's late, I'm going to bed.. but first an important warning review for those lucky enough to get a Wii. Warning offensive language inside, click play with caution:
