    Not sure about the enjoy your wood comment. I'll refrain from following up on that...

                    Playin' with wood in the bedroom

                    Can't beat that... well...
                    Nevermind
                    lol

                    Spent his birthday working on the addition for the house... a new bedroom.
                    Not quite as much fun as other things... but a good day none-the-less...

                    I think John enjoyed it.

                        Well...perhaps John follows my theory that sometimes it is better to give than to receive....
