Happy Birthday Mom
Today is my mom's 50th birthday. I hope she doesn't mind me stating her age, but she doesn't look a day over 25. People often think she is my sister. It must be her wrinkle-free skin and youthful smile.
My mom has the biggest heart. When I was younger she never complained about taking me(and my friends) to and from cheerleading, gymnastics, dance, karate, soccer and softball practice. She was also my biggest fan. Since she was a stay-at-home mom, she volunteered at my school and attended all of my school plays/concerts/talent shows. She would wake up early in the morning and make me pancakes or cheesy egg sandwiches for breakfast before school. After she picked us up from school, she would make sure we had some kind of snack and helped us finish our homework--before Dad got home.
When I headed off to college, she made sure I had everything I needed, including jumbo-sized shampoo and bath soap, every kind of cold and allergy medicine and pre-packaged food to last for months.
It wasn't until I moved away from home that I began to realize how much she did and still does for our family, especially my brother, sister and me. I think that was also around the time we became closer. I would call my mom everyday on the phone just to talk, I still do. She is definitely the woman I aspire to be- a caring mother, loving wife and faithful friend. Mom, thanks for everything you have done for me and continue to do. I love you and hope you have a fabulous day!

Happy New Year
Jenn and I just want to say Happy New Year to all of you. We had a low key night. Our neighbors next to us are a cool young couple so we hung out with them. We grilled some steaks and had some crab legs and just relaxed around the house. Chris, my neighbor has Play Station so we basically played Madden all night. Jenn fell asleep around 10 (she had to work New Year's Eve) so at about 11:50 I woke her up to ring in the New Year. She was out of it but managed to stay awake for a little bit longer. Today we are watching football and eating more. I have been a big pig and have probably gained about 10-15 lbs. in this last month. The holidays have completely thrown me out of my usual routine and I am looking forward to Monday when things will get back to normal. All in all we have had a terrific holiday season. Hanging out up north with Jenn's family and going to San Fran and then relaxing here back at home. We hope all of you have a great 2009 and lets hope that things will turn around for our country in the new year. I think that it can only get better from here on out. I mean how much worse can things be than they are now. With a new President and some smarter people running the show lets hope for better things. Plus this is the last year for me in my 30's so I deserve some love this year. Take care everybody and we love you all.
