My very first blog

Only 7-8 years behind the times, I've decided to take up blogging.  As you all know, I'm terrible at staying in contact with family and friends, and this way hopefully I can at least periodically update you on what's going on.  My wife happens to be an awesome writer so if my posts are terribly boring (very likely), be sure to check out her page, as her story-telling is much better!  More to follow this weekend (hopefully) :)
