Emme

Emme fell off the monkey bars today and broke her arm. If you'd like to see pictures of the fracture (x-ray, nothing too graphic) check out my blog.

Up and rolling again


Hello all. So after a grueling 2 weeks of no internet and moving and everything I thought I'd give a little post. Luckily the move went really well. Spartan did worse than Sophie but all in all not too bad. Totalling almost 30 hours of car time, Jeff only made me drive like 5. And thanks so much to my in-laws for helping drive! I don't think we could have done it without you.
Before we got to good old Alamogordo, Jeff told me it was terrible, hot, and our house was smaller then our apartment with brown and blue nasty carpet etc. To be honest, I cried a bit. But when we got here, I was pleasantly surprised. Jeff always does this thing where he tells me how much something sucks, just so I wont be disappointed (although he overdid it this time). Our house is wonderful! I've put a few pictures up for you. It is almost twice as big as the apartment, there is a garage that we can actually park in, and a great backyard with a large covered patio.
The town has a lot more to offer then McMinnville had. Except Portland of course. El Paso is the closest city and it is a little more then an hour away. We have 2 airforce bases, (German and US) a small mall, and a zoo! Oldly enough, it only has one grocery store and a super walmart which is really hard to work with while doing P90X.
P90X! Jeff and I are doing this get buff program for 3 months. There are a variety of different work out videos, one a day for about an hour. And the diet is interesting. Egg white omlettes and massive amounts of meat and veggies. It's pretty intense but we have only been doing it for 2 weeks and can already see great results! Both of us have lost 2% body fat already and Jeff has gained over an inch in his bicepts. We finish it on December 1st and will post our final results then.
Well I think you are all filled in now... Oh! Sophie started to crawl the day we got here. Made unpacking very difficult. And now she is teething and doesn't take naps anymore. Arg. Love you all and see you in November!

GAME DAY!!


All I can say is Go Ducks!! Here's a pretty decent article if you want to read more. The game is on ESPN at 7:30pm, should be a pretty good one... check it out (and you'd better be cheering for Oregon!) Just because Stephanie goes to Boise State doesn't mean you have to be loyal to their football team...
