From Paul: <\/em>Hey all. Us Batesies get pretty excited about winter weather\u2026 well\u2026 at least I do anyway. So I decided to update the blog page and make it a bit more festive, as least while it is still the holiday season. Check the sidebar on the left for the \u2018Pages\u2019 you normally see along the top banner. <\/span><\/p>\n Keeping with the holiday spirit, I took a break from studying for midterms today to build a gingerbread house with a friend. Below are some pictures. I found it a nice and relaxing way to pull myself away from the books. For now I am admiring the masterpiece (okay maybe it doesn\u2019t look exactly like the picture on the box) but I can\u2019t hold off eating it forever. More snow in the forecast this week\u2026 I am getting more excited everyday. While I get back to focusing on finals (I have 2 exams and 3 papers due this coming week) enjoy these pictures of the gingerbread house. Until next time\u2026 [More…]<\/a> Keeping with the holiday spirit, I took a break from studying for midterms today to build a gingerbread house with a friend. Below are some pictures.
