Are you recovered yet?

Friday, June 22, 2007

I'm not! Seriously, yesterday we mostly just sat around. Today would have been better, but most of my kids are either barfing or still coughing up their toenails. I had to make a run to Allen's to stock up on Sprite and Ricola. Hope you are doing better than we are.....it actually hasn't been too bad to just be confined to home. I have had all day to work on some projects that are looming. I'm almost halfway done with the most pressing one.

Thanks again for making and taking the time to go to Wyoming. I don't know about you, and you probably couldn't tell by my tired face, but I had a wonderful time. I only wish we hadn't been so tired at night so we could have played dice or just had an adults only conversation in the hall. I feel like I didn't get the chance to talk to anyone very much but it was great just knowing that we were sharing this experience. Love you all!

Thanks Mom and Dad for coordinating this vacation. I know it was not inexpensive and I want you know that I will treasure my memories and the feeliings I had as I contemplated what those people, all of them-not just our ancestors, had endured for the sake of the Gospel. I am in awe of them and I hope that in some small way I can measure up. I'm thankful that the Church has put so much effort into preserving those places and making them available to people. I think many lives have been touched.

Well, better go, Soren just woke up and I need to get him something to eat. Have a happy weekend.

She's Official!

Happy Adoption Day, Laila!

It was a neat experience in the courtroom today. I'm so happy for you Wendy, to have this all be done and Laila be yours now. Looking forward to July to see her become yours forever!

Getting excited about heading north next week. Thanks so much to all of you for coming and making this a special trip. Thanks Mom and Dad for planning and getting this off the ground.
Drive safely!

I'M BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wednesday, June 06, 2007

Wow, what a whirlwind 10 days! C's parents thought we needed to do some big thing every day! I told them we were content to just be at their house, but they had plans. It was awesome, but we are wiped out. That could be because we got up at 3;30 am this morning(1:30 UT time).

Karla, glad you didn't lose all your stuff. I have new pictures on my computer I need to download to discs....scary. Can't wait to see photos of Peyton and Tilly going at it.

Wendy-more details girl. What's the deal with the In Vitro thing? Fun on getting permits and all. Can't wait to hear that the digging has begun. Of course, I'll try to hide my jealousy when your house gets finished before my dumb addition does.

Well, I'm tired so I'm going to go sleep for a bit. Love ya all!

It's Alive!!

My computer is ok!! After 3 service calls from Dell, a new motherboard, a new processor, and finally a new power unit, it works!! And, best of all--all my stuff is still there. I ordered a new external hard drive and spent last night burning DVDs of my photos and my digital scrap stuff. Now, I feel a bunch better!!

My office has given me a headache for a solid week & a half now. The carpet glue and paint fumes are really doing a number on me. Ick!!

Well, Allie's fast pitch (yes, I said fast pitch) softball team took 2nd at a tournament they had in Blanding over the weekend. They even got trophies and everything. She had a game last night but had to miss it because she twisted/sprained her ankle and it's still sore. Peyton and Tilly duked it out on the baseball diamond yesterday. T-Ball at it's finest! I'll post pictures later, I'm at work right now. But it was fun to watch them stand in the field and hold a mit.

Nothing much else going on right now--same old stuff. Talk to you all later!
