Today is Neil's birthday. He is going to poop himself. Not because he is a year older but because of the present he is going to be surprised with. We may be one of the last families in the USA that doesn't have a flat screen t.v. This has been something he has dreamed about for years. Every year we have made the attempt and every year we have spent the money elsewhere. Well, thanks to a temporary part-time job digging in the dirt, crawling through swamp water and freezing my butt off and because a certain store who's name I am too embarrassed to mention brought back lay away for Christmas, he is finally going to get one! Yay! Granted, the money should have been used elsewhere but I did my best not to spend it. I can't wait to see the look on his face! Hmm...I sure hope we don't get sick of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches anytime soon.Thursday, December 8, 2011
