I'll begin by saying how much I miss Jeri. :-(

We had a decent pecan harvest, but not nearly as successful as it could have been had we known more about what we were doing. Actually, it was a fraction of what the harvesters thought it would be. We learned a valuable lesson, so instead of calling this a business, I'm calling it an expensive hobby for now. It might become a business sooner or later.

We sold all we had in just a few days and people are asking for more. If we ever get the hang of it, it might be a pretty good business.

Jennifer has the house decorated beautifully for Christmas. She goes all out. I think we have 6 or 7 trees!


Well, I've run out of inspiration. I'll try to write more later. Got distracted. Imagine that with four kids!
