I hope everyone had as good a Christmas as we did.

My wife’s parents and my brother helped our immediate family wipe out the dressing, giblet gravy, sweet potatoes, and cajun injected turkey.

We weren’t able to see my parents for Christmas, but at least we had been able to visit them in Baton Rouge for Thanksgiving.

We have a lot to be thankful for. Most importantly, thank you God for the gift of your son Jesus Christ. Man I’m blessed!

My in-laws are coming from Ohio to stay with us in a few days. How do you think I feel about that?

If you’re like many people, you may think that I’m dreading it. Well, I’m one of those rare people that actually like my wife’s parents. I’m glad they’re able to visit and wish that we had the opportunity to see them more often.

Time to get back to it. For the past few months I’ve been working on moving my Christian marriage blog from being hosted on Blogger to hosting it myself utilizing Wordpress. The reason for this was to provide more customization, flexibility, and a platform to build for the future.

It wasn’t easy, though the experience taught me a lot about web site design. Trying to find a template that I liked was like searching for the proverbial “needle in a haystack”. I did eventually find one that looked pretty good, but it wasn’t quite what I wanted. So I went ta codin’ and a customizin’. Fun stuff, but oh the time it eats up.

It’s taken a while, but I now have the site up and running, with all of the previous posts moved over.What you see before you is what I came up with, though it’s only about 75% of what I’m planning. Just getting a logo will go a long way towards making it look more complete and (dare I say it) professional. If you see any errors or things out of whack, please be kind enough to let me know by submitting a comment. I would greatly appreciate it.
