And the Winner is......

Not us. I opened up the paper this morning and read that the United Way had announced the winners of the Holiday Light Contest. Unfortunately, we were not picked. I am okay with that, however, my daughter Genesis was a little mad. She is now thinking (plotting) of ways in which we can win the contest next year. She already has expressed her ideas to me and I think we are going to be a little more competitive next year. It is so great to see how much she has gotten into the holiday decorating. I have never forced any of my children to like the same things that I like and I have let them form their own opinions about things. It is nice to see that Genesis is now infected with the holiday light bug. Now if I can just get Jacob and Cayla to be as focused and committed as Genesis, then I will unleash my holiday light decorating army on the world! Muuuuuuhuuuuuuuhaaaaahaaaaaaa!!!!
