2013...

...will be a lot better if we don't have to hear anything from or about the following people;
Lindsey Lohan
Paris Hilton
ANY Kardashian
Jessica Simpson
Really, WHY are they even newsworthy?? I just don't get it.

Also, I'm SO on board with the list of words that should be banished, starting with "fiscal cliff"

There's also a list of the best new words of 2012. My favorites are, 'meh' and 'mwahahaha'

I love the end of the year when they make up all these lists! I love lists!!

It was great to hear from the kids on new years day - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

But look at these super cute family members that actually DO adore us!

No, she didn't get her own present...it's just paper. She loves tearing up the paper!

There was too much activity for Pepper but she really wanted to be around us so she found a spot under the tree. When it got to be too much for her she just turned around and looked out the window.
