Working it off

Welcome to 2007 everyone!

Before I get too far... I want to let you know the newest house project - our new front door. You can't really tell from the pics, but it is a gorgeous burgundy! :-) Oh, and don't forget to notice the new roof and gutters! Yea!














Just as happens every year, it seems that the one just passed has slipped away too quickly. As you all well know, the theme for 2006 was "housework." It is still unwritten as to what the theme for 2007 will be, but I'm sure it will be a great year.

2007 was welcomed with a bang last night at the Horton household. Friends and family were here to eat, drink, and play board games. Fireball Island was an instant hit, as was Twister, Taboo, and Apples to Apples. The party didn't end until about an hour into the new year, and luckily very few of us needed to drive home (most were in easy walking distance). Here's some pics of the highlights:






PS. We got snow! It had been raining for about 24 hours, and then just as the party was approaching, the temp dropped below freezing and we have about 1-2 inches of the white stuff. Hurray! Too bad it's supposed to get up to the 40s again this week. Good for the heating bill, bad for morale.
