Oct. 7 - Biggest D@&! Carbon Footprint
I unpacked a pair of pants I bought from Old Navy.com for S before we left for India, not realizing that clothes are cheap there. They never fit him while we were there so I packed them in our shipment, not realizing it would be a year before we saw those things again. I looked at them today: Made in India. Which means that $7 pair of pants were made in India shipped to the US, flown back to India, packed, stored, and shipped back to the US. Now they are too small. Sorry Mother Earth.
Oct. 4 - Greatest Friends Ever
A number of my friends from Dallas helped me pack up (nearly two and a half years ago now!). The messages they left on the boxes had me laughing all day. AND MISSING THEM!
Oct. 3 - Ah, General Conference Weekend
We love General Conference Weekend
Oct. 1 - We Did It!
We closed yesterday!
Are pretty much over. Thank goodness for the minivan, eh?Sept 26 - Fall
We are between houses. My mother in law sold her house, and so, she was finally able to get us out of her basement. Our new house is under contract and we are waiting for it to close. We should be moving in Oct. 1!! In the meantime we are living in the family cabin. It's about a 45 minute drive to school and work and I was kind of dreading these two weeks, but it's been beautiful and quite relaxing.
Sept. 23 - Baby J
Sept. 14 - My Condolences to Facebook
Facebook here I come. I got a new job at church, I'm going to be working with the teenage girls. I didn't like teenage girls when I was a teenage girl (my mom says that's not that unusual and that's part of the problem with teenage girls). So, it looks like to communicate with them I'll have to get a facebook account. Of course, they are likely to doubt my cred, what with my brandspankin' new account and all.
As I've shared, I'm about the latest adopter around and my joining/buying/using usually coincides nicely with the sharp decline in popularity of said fad. My condolences to facebook. Good thing they got the movie out when they did.
Don't bother looking for me yet, I haven't even had a chance to blog over the last few weeks.

Congratulations! We should come have a snowy vacation sometime! Miss you!
Lucky me--many posts in one. Your house looks like a mansion and J is adorable.
Excellent! I loved it all!
Hey, the weather is perfect right now for a fossil dig, and the drive is about 5 minutes from here. They boys can dig up some awesome clams and stuff that are 200 million years old or so. (It actually is legal to dig up invertebrates.)
If you're game, give me a call. This is a great time of year for it! We like to go for about an hour now and then . . . that's about our limit! LOL
i can't wait to see pics of your house all moved in! so fun. looks like 2011 just might be your year... of finally being SETTLED. what a lovely feeling.
I agree about teen age girls. There has been a time or two I have had to deal with them.
An epiphany made it possible--they are my sisters.
Oct. 7--You're probably making a lot of carbon footprints now that you live in Carbon County!
Oct. 4--Glad you finally got to unpack your boxes. Do you still want the stuff that's inside? That's a dog, by the way, I know it is difficult to tell.
Oct. 3--Why is it so hard to sleep other times, and yet so easy two weekends a year?
Oct. 1--gorgeous, gorgeous! Congratulations. I meant the house is gorgeous, the minivan is "tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me". (That's Mr. Darcy, in case you haven't read it in awhile.)
Sept 26--great picture!
Sept 23--sitting up! She's adorable.
Sept 14--Maybe teenage girls aren't as bad when you are 15 years older than them...maybe. Good luck with facebook. Please don't let it replace your blog. (I only get on facebook once a month, for a few minutes, the rest of the time I am "deactiviated.)
Miss you. Glad to see an update.
Ahh! I just figured out that they are pointing to where they are born. Cute!
M has a similar map at her playground, but it was painted long enough ago that you can't really see where one state ends and the other begins...
Congrats on the house!!!
Yeah! you are in your house and getting settled. Oh, I can only dream about that day. I am so excited for you guys.
