I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail. Yes I would. If I could, I surely would. I'd rather be a hammer than a nail. Yes I would. If I only could, I surely would...

Happy New Year 2010

2010 is going to be a busy year for our family. Jon's resolution is to gain enough weight to be on The Biggest Loser, Julie plans on gaining 25-35 pounds...then losing it between June 2nd and the end of the year. Madeleine is dating, but hopes this year he will take it to the next step. Jasper (the cat) resolves to get out more. As for the extended family, they are all hoping to give more money to us....which is very generous.
