Merry Christmas

May the holidays bring you the happiest moments and the warmest memories that you’ll remember all the year through.

Times are hard but life is short, so spread the love. Hug longer and tighter. Smile more. Give compliments generously, and share the blessings.

Here’s looking forward to better years ahead.

With warmest wishes for you and your family during the holidays,

Matt & Gretchen

Fears Of Blogging

Oh blogging.........

I try and keep track of my friends through several different methods. Whether it's through emailing, phone calls, texting, or Facebook and Myspace. But it seems that technology is always coming up with a new way to stay in touch. So I have decided to give in to the temptations of blogging!

Some people post about their fabulous lives in big cities, some post pictures and funny stories about being engaged or newly weds, and others stick to lifes simple pleasures. What's been holding me back is the fear of being mundane.

I guess we all have some sort of interest in reading about the lives of others, no matter how simple or crazy their lives may be. But I don't want to be the one writing of weekend plans or where the next best place is to stop in and eat a burger. So my promise to you is to keep our blogging as entertaining as possible. And if the things I have to say or events that are happening in our life are to boring, I sure as hell will try and make it sound like more interesting!
