New Years Resolutions

Today we skied with some friends of ours. We all had a great time. It was supposed to be Elvis Day at Mt Rose, but they cancelled it this year. Martin is very bitter as he bought an Elvis costume (see Halloween section) in October which he wanted to double as his Halloween / Elvis Day costume. Caedon was also very disappointed, as he remembers all the skiing Elvises from last year. I thought Martin should start a campaign on facebook titled "Bring Elvis Day Back!"

Last weekend Martin went to the Rose bowl, so I was home with the kids. I was taking the ornaments off the Christmas tree and Caedon wanted to know why I had to take down all the decorations. I explained to him that Christmas was over and now that we had celebrated the New Year it was time to put everything away until next year. He replied, "You didn't tell me Christmas was over!"  (He was really mad) How do you respond to that??
