Snowman!

The kids had a great afternoon playing in the snow! Kenzie and Dane had worked hard to make a snowman so I went out to take a look only to discover that it had been created right in front of our garage door! After a bit of rearranging, he ended up on our sidewalk. They were sure proud of their snowman!

Have I Mentioned.....?

Have I ever mentioned what a fantastic neighbor I have? I can't believe that I have never had a "Mike " post, but it has recently been brought to my attention that I have, in fact, never written such a post. I can't wait to sing the praises of my favorite neighbor!
First, Mike is an incredible competitor...whether it be pictionary, tennis, cornhole or ping pong, Mike is always "in it to win it." Now granted, most of the time he is lobbying to get to be my partner, but with my athletic talent... that is a given. Mike is also the mastermind of the amazing scavenger hunt...so much fun!
Secondly, Mike is a great role model for the neighborhood kids. He is such an encouragement and they all look up to him for his wise advice.

Most importantly, Mike is an awesome husband to his wife Deb (otherwise known as "Precious"). Now, I have been having a bit of fun with Mike in this post, but in all sincerity...he is a great guy and he treats Deb fantastically. It has been our pleasure to get to know Mike better over this past year and we know that whatever we might need he would be there for us in a heartbeat! In fact, he WAS there for us recently when Chuck was sick. He was kind enough to clear our drive during one of our many "dustings" of snow this year (and we later discovered that he didn't even know Chuck was sick...he was just being the nice guy that he is!) We love ya, Mike! Hope you enjoyed your special post!!!
