Christmas Time

Once again its been forever since i last blogged, since last time, it has snowed here in Oklahoma and it only lasted for about 3 or 4 days and then it all melted. One day it'll be 20 degrees and then the next day it'll be 75. So weird. But we try to get out and enjoy the days when its warmer outside. For Christmas this year Tiffany and I took a week off of work and just stayed home and relaxed. It would have been more relaxing but last Saturday we were going to put down new flooring in our master bathroom and paint it, and then i discovered a leak from one of the pipes inside the wall. The project that i thought was going to take a half a day turned out to last 5 days. The wall that the leak was in separates our two bathrooms and everything around the leak was ruined and water damaged, so we had to fix the leak, replaced the framing boards, put up new sheet rock, get a new vanity, paint both bathrooms, and while we were in the process we added a new outlet to our guest bathroom and painted the tub, and got some new decor and shower curtains and rugs (they look 10 times better now). We finished them last Wednesday night so by Christmas day we were done and we didn't have to work on them anymore for the rest of the week. It was good timing since both Tiffany and I were both off of work. I couldn't have done it without her, God has blessed me with an amazaing wife that has so many skills, all in one day she can wake up make breakfast then put up sheet rock, mud and tape, get all dirty, use power tools, clean up, and then cook supper. I'm not sure how she does it. I'm Blessed. I will post the pictures of our project up tonight. Anyways i hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year.

Wow

I can't believe its been almost a month since i last posted a blog, I need to get better at this. Lets catch up a little, over thanksgiving Tiffany's family came into town and we spent Thanksgiving at my Brother-in-laws house here in town, everyone of of Tiffany's family was able to make it excepet her little brother thats in the Marines in Arizona. Also my sister came down with her boyfriend and his brother and his roomate. So obvioulsy by the sounds of it we had a full house. I think with kids and all we had 18-20 people in the house. Each of Tiffany's sister have children, Cari has two, and Aubrey and Danae each have one. Thats puts the pressure on us since Tiffany is the only sister not to have a baby yet. The world can wait for the Galvan baby. One of Tiffany's sister was sick before she came to Thanksgiving and Tiffany ended up getting sick that same weekend, and then last week i got sick and then i gave it to Tiffany so that Galvan home has been full of coughing, sneezing, headache, and blowing noses. Sounds like fun, but we are getting better now. Last week and in the week to come we have like 4 or 5 X-mas parties to go to that my job and Tiffany's job puts on. It should be fun, i know this is long, but pictures will be up tonight from Thanksgiving and stayed tuned for pics from the X-mas parties.
