In the begining

Dear Family, Friends and whoever else stumbles upon this blog,

I'll start off by letting you know I'm not a good writer. Jim (aka Zim, Mr. MacPhee, MacPhee, Jimmy, Boobie, Daddy, hey, etc.) is better at it. He writes our Christmas letters and if he ever looks at something I wrote, he'll offer to punch it up. Upon it's return my name is my only contribution. Now don't get me wrong I'm thankful he does it, it keeps me from embarrassing myself and he's good at it, as I'm sure some of you know. But because of it, I'll try to keep my posts brief. I'll give you a peek as to what's going on with us. Feel free to ask questions or post comments, but I will say please go by The Golden Rule, if you don't have anything nice to say don't say it at all.
I do hope you'll enjoy the read, after all reading is sexy :)
My family, I love you all and wish you lived closer.
