It's a New Year...

We celebrated the New Year with Gritters and Kuipers by hanging out at our house, sharing a meal and then heading to the ZCS gym to burn off some energy!  We headed home for an early night in and were in bed before 11pm...oh how life has changed!

The 1st day of the New Year Joel's back started acting up...not a great start to the year.  The 2nd day of the New Year we woke up to flashing lights in the front yard and a pond!  The water main broke and flooded the front yard.  Several hours later it was fixed...our road was covered in ice due to all of the water they pumped into the street that quickly froze and we had a 6 foot deep hole in our front yard!  Yikes!  They say they will come back in the Spring to fix it all and plant new grass...we sure hope so.  The blessing in it all was we didn't have to pay a penny for it because the break was on the city's side!  Phew!  It did provide a whole afternoon of entertainment though!  Hopefully the New Year takes a turn for the better!
