We got new countertops and sink at the end of May. Dustin and my bro masterfully installed our FABULOUS faucet and a new garbage disposal. We are loving it!
Before...
- New Counter!
NEVER get tired of this episode.
So no offense, but we’re tired of the 25 things craziness. Here is our reply.
1. Dolly Madison was the first, first lady.
2. You can substitute all-purpose flour and cornstarch for cake flour.
3. That Blockbuster ib 114th is closed now.
4. The bruschetta topping from Kimmel Apple Orchard is BAD.
5. 10,000 BC is BAD.
6. There was a Jimmy John’s in Lincoln WAY before any of the ones in Omaha.
7. Breeds of lilac without scent are a total downer.
8. Last of the Mohicans was an awesome movie, but not an awesome book. Reads like a Boy Scout manual.
9. The Wuzzles was on CBS.
10. CDO can be a Collaterolized Debt Obligation or Chief Data Officer among other things.
11. That “steak and eggs and eggs and steak…” scene from Family Guy will totally get stuck in your head for HOURS.

15. Turkeys in Council Bluffs are fat and wobbly.
16. Jane Seymour never did anything as good as Dr. Quinn.
17. Texas Toast isn’t actually toast.
18. Drinking pop warm is never a good idea, but if you’re going to do it, do it with Mountain Dew.
19. No one can actually tell the different between a “Genesis” song and “Phil Collins” song. Does it really matter, anyways?
20. The red eye remover on Windows Photo Gallery works better than Office Picture Manager.
21. Proofs is something that you probably will not need to know how to do in the real world.
22. The early bird gets the worm.
23. 96.1 used to be Lite 96.
24. Remember when girls used to cut back bottom part of their hair really short and keep the rest of it long? What the heck was that about?
25. Mario Bros. 2 was supposed to be a dream that Mario had.
Dustin is anxiously awaiting THREE Bags O Crap.
So many videos were made and one was chosen for the buying. What can I say, OfficeMax has bested me. This was my favorite, mostly because of Scott on the hay bale. So here is Me, Dustin, Brian, Scott and Simon the Cat. Enjoy. Christmastime is only 11 months away….
done
Merry Christmas
Well another year has passed along with a few more changes for the Kreifels. Dustin now has a year of practicing law under his belt. His latest passion is homebrew — we’ve got a basement full of brewing accoutrements and empty bottles. Next up, wine brewing.
Marissa left ConAgra Foods in April and is now working at TD Ameritrade. Oh, and about the broken foot, who would have thought a slip down ONE step the first week in October would STILL be reverberating. It took three weeks before we knew that the foot was broken, and then there were six weeks in a walking cast, unable to drive. Marissa’s out of the cast now and wearing something called a “rocket sock.” Still not anywhere near 100%, but making progress. Hope to have dancing shoes back on in another month or so. I could survive the slip’n’slide and can’t walk down a step??
Work around the house has slowed the last few months with the bum foot, but we did get more painting done this year and a lot more planted out in the garden. But for now, we’re loving being in the middle of the holiday season. The Christmas decor is over the top as usual, thanks to some extra help since ladders are currently hazardous to Marissa’s help. Dustin outdid himself on the outdoor lights as well. We have a busy schedule of holiday happenings up until Christmas, so the season is going by WAY too fast as usual.
Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
