Happy New Year!

Hello all-
Wow, 2010 is in the books and it's on to 2011! I hope you enjoyed time with your family over the Holiday Break. The University shutdown from Dec. 23-Jan. 2 so Heather and I had lots of time to spend with our family-- (Favorite kid story this year- Riley and Calvin- our 5 and 3 year old- woke up at 4:30 am Christmas morning- my wife Natalie intercepted them before getting to the presents and told them to get back to bed. They begged to look to see if they got any presents. She caved. After looking at them for a second-and not opening any- she tells them to get back to bed. They actually listened! And, as Calvin turns to go back to bed, he triumphantly throws his arms straight up in the air and says, "Yes- we got presents!!" Maybe I shouldn't have threatened that they wouldn't receive any quite so often!)

Anyway- wanted to let you know that Kiplingers Personal Finance once again named the University of Minnesota, Morris as one of their "100 Best Values"in its annual list of public schools. Read more about it here!

Going to run now (literally- trying to work out more and eat healthier-- yet again!).

Have a great week and Go Cougars!
