Snowed In

Well, it's no longer late spring. Our garden is a thing of the past. In fact, it's winter. Full-fledged winter. We have about half a foot of snow on the ground right now and we're cuddled up in front of the fire. Please excuse the absence. We realize the ol' blog got a little rusty over the summer and fall months. Allow me the efficiency of a bullet-point list to explain what happened over the last 6 months:

* Trip to Colorado for some gnarly kayaking (Jake) and picture-esque wildflower scenes (Jennifer). God bless Claritin D.
* Harvesting of, oh, 2,000,000 butternut squash
* Small renovations on the farm house
* Completion of South and Fourth Street project
* SALE of South and Fourth Street project
* Weddings, weddings, wedding, and then we went to a wedding
* Sad, yet much-needed departure from farm house
* Condo living at "the most prestigious address in NWA"... yeah, not so much.
* 2nd Christmas for the record books as Mr. and Mrs. Newell = camping gear and new pots and pans (I'll let you guess who got what)
* 3 more lots under contract for Swiftwater Development
* Personal lot under contract for our first home. Definitely the most prestigious address in NWA.

And... we're up to speed. Actually, to be completely up to speed, you should know we're currently cuddled up to a warm fire watching Varsity Blues. Jennifer actually hasn't ever seen the movie. What a shame. The script alone is simply mind-blowing. "Let's go, let's go, let's go!" Speaking of which, better go for now.
