We got to go a look at the new house and it is looking pretty good. It is cool to see how it all comes together. Katie was so excited for the first few minutes that she was trying to decide which room she wanted before reality set in. Now we really are never going to get her married off!
Boy did we have fun at Branson's Silver Dollar City! Dad agreed to watch Harker and mom was at work as the rest of us drove an hour and a half to have a little back woods fun. We stayed the whole eight hours the park was open and most of that we spent riding the rides. Of course we did find some time to look through the shops and eat some funnel cake. Brad and Katie took turns watching Hyrum so I got to go on all the rides times 2 (or 4, or even 5!)
We have had a great trip so far. I have not seen dad in over a year and it is so nice to be here now. Dad could not believe how big Hyrum is when he saw him for the first time this morning. I only got to see him for an hour or so before they took Dan and Megan to the Airport. They are gone now but we were promised some good BBQ when they get back. So the rest of us are just taking it easy.
Brad had his second surgery today and so far so good. I am just happy to get it all finished before our good insurance runs out. Again it proved to be quite entertaining for me in the recovery room. I must admit I was kind of devilish this time. I asked Brad if I could go shopping today and spend $1000.00. He said "sure." He even asked me at one point where he was and I wanted so bad to tell him he was in the warmth and comfort of heaven. I heard another man ask a male nurse what time it was (it was 8am) and the nurse replied, "Why it is 8 o'clock at night sir." There was a long pause before I heard the nurse laugh and say, "Now, that was mean of me wasn't it!"
Brad waxed my face today and I think he kind of liked it too much. I think he rather enjoyed causing me pain. He has done it once before and has offered over the past few months to do it again. I finally gave in when Katie told me I needed to loose the fine hairs under my bottom lip. I just know the extra hair growth is directly related to my mission in Poland. I am just happy I have been able to bear children!
We ate at Eatsa Pizza yesterday and thought of Chase's song the whole time. You can't beat an all you can eat buffet for $2.99!
It was pretty funny. I looked up to apologize that my son had just barreled into her and couldn't belive it was your mom. Come to think of it, I never did apologize!
I will be so happy when Brad's finals are over. First of all it will mean that it is vacation time, and secondly, he will calm down a little. The poor guy needs a break as he has been going straight through for a year now. I do not help much as I think that when he is not in class he has free time.
Ray-I ran into your mom the other day outside of TJ Max. It was cool!
The past week as been a little crazy but exciting and now the move is over. We made our big Wymount transfer into a building across the street. It was nice not to have to pack everything into boxes. We just kind of moved it a room at a time.
We took Harker swimming at the DT swimming pool today. One of the perks of living in on campus housing is that we get access to the dorm pools. This sporty little Speedo number was a birthday present and not only does it look cool, I'm sure it has saved his life a few times. He seems to think he is a fish.
