Truthfully, you got shafted this year. Normally I photoshop the animals all over us (sometimes stretching or shrinking them to improbable proportions for comic effect). This year we just wanted to get the cards out in a hurry. Now you're on The List though, so next year, I promise.

My sis Amy and bro-in-law Rob are flying out here in May for the Colorado Marathon, supposedly the most scenic marathon in the country and also a qualifier for Boston.

Tery has been in a real funk trying to finish up her alcohol class (I commented in Jemma's post about how she has to write this autobiography about her life with alcohol and it's dredging up all these negative feelings for her). It's put her in a real slump training-wise. So almost all her presents this year are athletically oriented to try to kick her in the ass (all things she put on her wishlist).
