Our trip down to Texas

Well, we finally made it to San Antonio. We unpacked the last box today and situated the garage. It feels good to finally see a house and not boxes. The trip down was not the best, but we made it in one piece. Katelyn had the stomach bug the whole way. The traffic in Dallas was unreal!! And BYU lost at TCU bad!! But here are a few pictures of what was good. We got to stop at the American Girl Doll store in Dallas and have lunch with the dolls. The kids thought that was great, but the girls were sad not to be able to buy a doll. Jack was pretty good on the ride down. He even read the road map for me. Note: Do you all love the packed car? Check out all the junk in the back seat!!

Jordan wanted to eat with a doll too!! He called her Pocahontas.

Katelyn eating with her doll that she borrowed too.

Is this the TCU sign??? Maybe that's what went wrong!

Abby with her doll that she borrowed! The food was yummy!

Katelyn driving in the car with a forced smile because she doesn't feel good.

Jack reading the map...hopefully it is the Texas one!

Halloween Oct 2008 San Antonio TX

Happy Halloween late. Here are a few pictures of the kiddos in their costumes. Katelyn was a snow princess, Abby was a Queen, Jack was Buzz, and Jordan was a Ninja Turtle. They had a great night. I believe Jack had the most fun. He was not scared to knock on the doors and get candy. In fact, a couple of days ago we were walking home from taking the kids to school and Jack was ahead of me and ran up to a random person's door and knocked on it. I think he thought he was going to trick-or-treat at their house. Lucky for me, no one was home at that house. But, they had a great night. Note: Do you love the weed garden in the front yard? It is now gone...I will have to send some more recent pictures.

45 days until Christmas!!!

Sorry to say but the first picture of the new house is of the kids infront of the girls' room and the water heater door...but there are only 45 days until Christmas!!! The girls made a count down with links. They plan on cutting one off each night. Do you think anyone is excited???
