been unable to get a hold of that I really want is jessicastapleton.com and that&#8217;s because a dude in CA is holding on to it for his daughter.\u00c2\u00a0 Oh well one day he&#8217;ll forget to renew it.<\/p>\n<p>Enough web talk.\u00c2\u00a0 Lets talk about the Stapleton Family.<\/p>\n<p><strong>December<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>December started out innocently enough until we had the water leak in the basement.\u00c2\u00a0 This ended up being a mess as you could well assume.\u00c2\u00a0 The pipe was hidden so well that superman would have had trouble locating it with his x-ray vision.\u00c2\u00a0 So between clearing out the storage area, finding the leak, repairing the leak, putting the carpet back down, my business travel, Jess&#8217;s finals, and Christmas, December was just a blur.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t take me wrong, we had a nice Christmas and got to spend some time with the family, but December was just a blur.\u00c2\u00a0 We didn&#8217;t even get that many pictures this year, but the good ones (and the ones I am allowed to publish) are below.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-905 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure
