I can't believe it

I am actually posting, and it has been so long I really don't know where to start. I'm sure no one reads my blog anymore anyway, and I don't blame them, seriously, over a month without one post! It is 10 minutes to 2 am so I'll be brief and say that things are going great. We are all healthy and happy and business is good. Maybe next month I'll have time to download some pictures off my camera.

We had a nice visit to Blackfoot to wish Jake well as he leaves for his mission, and can I just say, he is one amazing guy. I got a little choked up when he got up to speak Sunday and was so witty and charming, cause he's my baby brother, and it really caught me off guard to see him as a total adult, even wearing his whites. He went to the MTC this morning, hope my mom and dad are holding up. They should be proud though they raised some really fab kids.

Where is Jake going, again? I don't know if you never told me or if I just can't remember.

That's wonderful, Julie! How nice that he is prepared and ready. What a joy to see him on the straight and narrow after making the good choices that have led him here. Very exciting!

He is going to Houston East. It includes Beaumont and quite a bit of west Louisiana.

I'm so excited for your brother! I'm sure your one proud big sister. And I agree, your parents raised some fab kids. Give your mom a hug for me the next time you see her.

How neat! Missionaries are the BEST! I can't wait until my little bro leaves next year! What a special time!
PS- how is your dad feeling?
