New Background! New blinds!

It's new stuff all around on the Gosney blog. Sharon is slowly becoming more and more interested in this blogging thing and has even ventured out to comment on other people's blogs. This is a fairly major step in her life, so everyone please be supportive as she embraces this new lifestyle of communicating with other people. Sharon decided we needed a new background to the blog and, thanks to sister-in-law Shonnee, we were introduced to the cool website that has free backgrounds. Free is a good price, so here it is! Ta-dah! Gosney Blog 2.0.

Yesterday we decided that if anyone ever were to stay at our house in our guest room we'd cause them extreme trauma from the fact that there are no blinds on our windows. Now, we're not saying that our neighbors are peeping toms, but still some privacy would probably be appreciated. The challenge, of course, is the fact that Matt is not exactly the most "handy" person in the world. He scores extremely low on the "Norm Abram" scale. However, he still managed to figure out how to install shades in the bedroom without destroying the shades, or the bedroom, or himself. This is a cause for celebration in the Gosney household, as other such projects have not been as successful.

Otherwise, not much to report this week. Another successful Pack Meeting was held, with more singing on the part of Cubmaster Gosney. Saturday was spent Christmas shopping and watching another University of Oklahoma victory. There is a significant compromise in the Gosney household. Matt agrees to watch Grey's Anatomy with his wife and Sharon agrees to watch OU football games with her husband. Each is reluctant to admit that they've begun to enjoy watching each other's shows, but deep down that is most likley true.
Have a great week!

Gooooo MATT! The blinds look awesome! Maybe we'll have to come try the out sometime. Like the new background too.
And welcome to the blogging world Sharon!! Yes, it does become addictive. I finally did one for our fam. after getting bugged by friends and relatives to get a blog, and its been so fun to record events, activities, and memories.

Nice background! Love the colors and pattern. Yea, I have yet to venture into those lovely details as I'm still months behind on even posting. But someday. . . .
Loved the report on the blinds! Way to go Matt! Lets just say we have had our own adventures with installing things like oh, a towel rack, and our own window shades. . . we all have different talents and it is good to remember that, lol. :)
Wow, I am really impressed with the incredible compromise that has happened in the Gosney household! And you've only been married 2 years? Shucks, you guys are doing great! If that's not a sign of success, I don't know what is. :) Take care!
