No great and monumental occasion. I just decided to do a TWIR and whomever want to read it can without the email.
Ben has a new puppy that was delivered on January 4, 2008. He had a tough time coming up with a name but decided because the dog is so sweet and is white with just a touch of golden on his head that he would call him Toasted Marshmallow and Toasty for short. The puppy lounges in the house and races when he is outside. He loves Ben and Katherine and Spencer. He likes Vicki and he tolerates me. Sometimes. Thats OK. I don't have to clean up after his messes and take him out to the bathroom. Ben is training him to go potty.
Our falling wall has been replaced. The family has worked diligently to take the grade down 4" so we can extend our driveway and get rid of the dirt. With the removal and rebuild of the wall and the concrete pour complete, we now have a 16' wide side yard.
Spencer is on the cusp of receiving all 20 of his Webelos activity pins. He has just a few more activities to complete.
Katherine continues to be heavily involved at school. She is defacto leader of the key club (even though she isn't president) and treasurer of the Conservative Civics Club at the Las Vegas Academy of International Studies and Visual and performing Arts High School. She says the civics club is the smallest club on campus because they just don't have that many conservatives at that arts school. She will be involved in counting returns from our caucus this Saturday.
Our neighbor across the street put up an OBAMA 08 sign yesterday. I guess they are trying to counter act the "Romney for President" sign we have in our yard. I turned our sign around after I saw him put up his sign. The other side says "Romney, True Strength for America's Future"
Sweet Vicki, Is feeling like a new mom all over again with a baby puppy. In addition to the million things she has on her plate, she now runs after and plays with the dog during the day. Sometimes I wonder how she gets it all done.
Well that about sums up the week.

I am elated!!! Thanks for blogging. Ben's dog is adorable. Toasty turns out to be just the right name for him after all! It is nice to see your wall repaired and the property improvement. I've got your blog bookmarked and think its amazing.
Tell everyone hello!

Those were tough choices to vote for. Would you please put my family only email address on your address list? karenw.coleman@gmail.com
Your home looks lovely. First time I've ever seen a decorated election sign. Very snazzy. The dog is adorable and Ben is handsome. Spencer love the hand!
So glad TWIR is back. I may join the ranks after I retire some day.
Love to all. Karen
