Just to keep people happy

Now that Im getting up each day at like 8:30 (I'm not a sleep in guy) and having no plans whatsoever except how many games of Settlers we play, or Monopoly, or Rage...those of you familiar with me or my family know very well how much we love games...anyways where am I going with this? Now that I have all this time, I suppose I have no excuse for not updating this blog all the time. We've heard from a few of our Australian family and friends who've reading this blog, which has been great. We do consider Australia our home, but truthfully, we're not ready to go home just yet.

Today, we had the opportunity to go out to lunch with Mel, a good friend of mine. It was good to catch up with him and some of you know about mel from what I said in my sermon. I'm glad he and I are still friends because he's such a cool guy. Meg got to meet him for the first time too...and she thinks he's pretty cool too.

Weather wise...it's not too bad here. Only -2 today although they are threatening us with a -19 in the morning and a HIGH of -10 later on this week. The cold weather cometh...but no snow on the horizon...believe it or not. Meg is NOT happy about that.

Meg and I are going to venture into Fish Creek Park tomorrow so expect plenty of pictures...since the flooding in the summer here, a lot of the bridges in the park have been washed away but Dad says it doesn't matter, since the river is frozen over so you can just walk across it. Great!

stay tuned...
