New Background

In honor of my daughter being down in the most magical place on earth, Disney World, I have decided to change my background. Since I am NOT computer sauve, it took me quite a long time to figure out how to change it. In the mean time I seem to have lost my music on the blog. I'll have to research how to get that back.

Counting down the days until Jennifer comes back home. 196 days!

A New Adventure Begins

Well, at least for Jennifer. Tonight we held a party in her honor as we all wished her luck in her new adventure - working in Disney World for the next 8 months. I will drive her to the airport tomorrow morning bright and early (6am). She will be on the plane for the next 13 hours or so and then when she arrives in Orlando, Cassie's mom will pick her up from the airport, take her home to their house for the night, and then deliver her to Disney World in the morning. (Cassie is Jennifer's roommate from BYU-I) This is such a great opportunity for Jennifer and we are all excited for her. I am going to miss her terribly. There will now be a 3 hour time difference and she won't be able to drive 12 hours to get home. Thank goodness for modern technology which will allow us to communicate as often as we feel like it.

It was fun tonight to visit with my stepsisters Anne and Kimmie, and my stepbrother Tim and his family. We rarely get together, but when we do it is fun. Ed's side of the family was represented by his younger sister Karen, her daughter Shelby, his brother Jim, and Jim's family. We missed several other family members, but that might be because Jennifer was in charge of the invites, and they might not have received them. Oh well, we thought of them and counted them there in spirit.
