Jack's Neverending B-day

Well, you guys probably read the post about the snacks, and in the same delivery, another one of Jack's fantastic birthday presents arrived. That's actually really very nice. In Uganda, your birthday continues on for the time that your presents take to get through the diplomatic pouch. Jack says thanks so much, as well as the rest of the family, for the great presents that our family goes to the great trouble of getting for us.

Outrageous Amount of Snacks

WOW!!! Thank you guys so much for the great snacks. I know this is weird to say after how we had been complaining, but we almost eat the same amount of snacks here as in the States. I'm definitely not complaining, and thank you so much. How's everything going there? Still snowing for the MA crew? Anyway, thanks again, and the snacks are much appreciated.

Jack's New Karaoke Machine

The entire family would like to thank everyone for the great christmas presents that they sent. We all immensely enjoyed the snacks, and JT went crazy over the hockey set. And Jack has not been able to leave his karaoke machine. HE LOVES IT!!! Every night he's jammin away, singing everyone note that he knows, and quizzing everyone else. Not to mention Dad's enthusiasm. Besides Jack, he's definitely the loudest and most energetic. It works great, and Jack is becoming a personal DJ. He knows every little trick, and he especially loves fiddling with the echo.

Thanks to everyone again, and we're so sorry if our presents haven't reached you yet.

Our Sea Shipment CAME!

The house is buzzing with excitement again because after a long wait, our stuff that was shipped overseas has finally come. There was a great deal of happiness when Jack located his old max in the boxes. We got many things, including board games, bikes, sporting equipment, and our PS2. We'll be having lots of fun, and hopefully the bikes will come in handy.

The Super Bowl in Uganda

Sorry that we haven't posted in a while. This post is about the Super Bowl!
Some sports revelation in Boston, huh! First a long-missed World Series title for the Red Sox, and now a perfect season-to-be for the Patriots. But I'm sure that the New York contingent have their fair share of the glory. If Eli and the Giants pull off some miraculous win, then you guys will have something to brag about, huh? You stopped the perfect season (sorry but it's just not going to happen).
We wish we could share in the fun, but there is no way for us to get the game. The internet blocks streaming video, and the network, the Armed Forces Network, isn't working.
Comment on the score and what happened please!
