Finally….a new post!!
Posted on Saturday, September 20th, 2008 at 8:04 pmIt has been awhile since I’ve posted! I’ve actually been busy because of school starting. So this is about 3 posts into one!! Hopefully you can make it to the end!!
Labor Day Weekend
We had the chance to go to Wyoming with my family. It’s a tradition for everyone to go along with my grandparents. We had a great time! We went on a hike to a place called Periodic Springs. It is a natural spring where the water only flow for a few minutes and then stops! We had some great rides on the four wheelers and came back covered with dust!
While we were there, we had an extended family reunion. We didn’t really know a lot of people, so we kind of kept to our own family! (Isn’t that how most huge family reunions turn out to be). One of my former students was at the reunion. (She’s my mom’s cousin’s daughter!!) She was a little bit embarrassed to come say hi, but it was fun to see her!
Every year my grandma also plans a game. This year, we had to unscramble a puzzle and then we got a clue to find our prize. Unfortunately Steve and I didn’t do too well…we came in last place, but our prize was $20…not too bad!!! We’ll have to practice up for next year!!
We had a great weekend!

Bowling with Steve’s Family
After we got back from Wyoming, we had a party for Steve’s dad to celebrate his retirement. He loves bowling, so almost the whole family went bowling. It was fun! I bowled a 99…almost made it to 100 this time!!
New Car
My car has been pretty unreliable lately, so Steve and I decided that it was time for a new car!!! After many, many hours with “crazy” car salesman, we finally found what we wanted. We were able to get a Honda Accord!! We’ve been having fun with our new car!!!
Our new car! It’s kind of hard to see because it was about 8:30 at night when we finally finished the sale. It took us a long time that day to actually make a decision!!! (Despite the plates…we actually bought our car at Willey Honda!)
Congrats on the new car! That’s funny, we just bought ourselves a new car today too… from the exact same dealer! They have great deals!
That is very exciting! We need a new car also, but just can’t get ourselves to do it quite yet. I hate car salesmen. One day….
Hey guys! It’s nice to see what you’ve been up to. We have an Accord from Willey Honda as well! Must be the place to shop for a car.
