Thomas Takes Over the World

So maybe he did not take over the world but he did make a model of it.

Thomas' Birthday

You don't turn 12 every day.  Thomas got to celebrate his 12th birthday with some friends from school.

Frank was in charge of games, so it came down to armed combat.  Nerf slingshots, airplanes and blow guns were sending missiles everywhere.  

The party was a great time and Thomas had icecream cake instead of the traditional type.

Dog-Gone Country Song

Does your life ever sound like a bad country song? Try these lyrics on for size:

On a cold wintry night
There was no pilot light.
So we took our vacation jack
and put it right back
into a house in Arizona we own.

Yep, we had to cancel our vacation plans to pay for furnace work in Arizona and then on New Years eve, our dog got sick and this afternoon we had to go and have her put down. She was in a lot of pain and crying continually. Oh well, it may not be a great new year, but at least it is consistent.
