New Year...New Dog

New Years Eve has never been known to be a quiet one with the Simpsons...and this year...they got a new dog. Ask Jacob what his dog's name is and he'll tell ya "his name is Chesney. His last name is Kenny Chesney."

Welcome Chesney to the family!


Chesney was not ready to put the Christmas tree away...


Sledding with Jacob.

Blog vs. Webpage

Well....I'm sure that anyone who has checked out Jacob's website any time in the last year (ok...maybe longer) has noticed that I have not been as diligent as we all would have hoped about posting updates. Ok...I've been horrible at it.

A lot of that had to do with lack of time on my part, but some of it was also how time consuming it is to maintain a website. So I've been reading several blogs that my friends put together, as well as Cousin Reese's blog out in Kansas...and I figure that if Meghan can update a blog, complete with adorable pictures, then I should be able to easily (and often!) maintain a blog with more frequent updates.

Once I get this thing mastered, I also plan to teach Michelle and John how to log in and post their own comments and pictures and get Mom and Dad's perspective every now and then. :)

Shoot....maybe we'll even get Jacob to help us out!!
