Thanksgiving Weekend.

Thanksgiving weekend is officially over so I figured a recap was worth the time.

Fist up we got into Manteca on Wednesday night at around 6. We ended up going out for diner to celebrate my sister-in-law's birthday. We went to a place called the Elephant Bar. Very interesting place. It has an African theme decor and yet boasts a family style wok grill..... Needless to say I got a burger and fun was had by all.

Thursday, Turkey Day, was all I could hope for. I got to sleep-in till about 11:30 got dressed and in an hour we were stuffing our faces with grilled turkey, stuffing, Mashed potatoes and gravy, and pecan pie. By 4:30 I was in a turkey induced coma.

Black Friday was spent, again sleeping-in, and then we hit a few stores. Vicki my mother-in-law, bought me Season 1 of the Office. Unfortunately I have to wait till Christmas before I get to enjoy it...

Saturday was our lazy day. Not much happened.

Sunday, today we had Jack dedicated at Katrina's parent's church. It was a nice little prayer ceremony thing. We don't believe in baby baptism cause salvation is a personal choice and we as parents need to dedicate our lives to raise him according to our views and beliefs in the hopes that he chooses his own way to God (Jesus).

Anyway we had a fun filled weekend and now we are home relaxing.

Till next time. Josh Juice Welch

Almost a year.

It's been almost a year since I last posted anything and a lot has changed in that little bit of time.

First up I'm a Daddy! Jack David was born July 21 2009. 7lbs 9oz. Katrina and I couldn't be happier. As I'm writing this he's 4 and a half months old and it feels like he's been with us for a long time. I can't wait to start doing all the fun Daddy son stuff with him. Boy scouting, Bike riding, skateboarding, sledding, camping all that fun stuff. Right now I'm just enjoying the little things. Watching him grow up and learn his motor skills is all I could ask for right now.

Next up I'm growing a mustache! Not for Movember but just for me! I'm hoping for a handle bar mustache but we'll see what I get in a year. I'll have pictures to post to document my growth.

I'm not sure what else is new with me but I'm going to start posting more, so if I've failed to mention anything I'm sure it'll be posted soon.

Till next time! Josh Juice Welch
