Se habla Espanol?

Please don't laugh! I am writing this post as a response to Leann (my sister-in-law). She is so hilarious! She just talked about getting packages from the "brown Santa" AKA the UPS man! I, too, love online shopping and getting packages! Whenever I get a package, Blaine announces, "It's Christmas time!" He exaggerates and says everyday is Christmas around here. The funny thing is this time I ordered an online Spanish program. I am trying to learn Spanish, but I do not have time to go to a class. I do not have a person to speak Spanish with, but oh well! We will see how it goes! If you would like to post in Spanish, feel free! It may take me a while to figure it out, but it would be good practice, right?

OHHH POOP!

This sucks! Sorry to those of you who do not use that phrase! We barely have had a chance to get settled and find some time to relax, only to start tomorrow! Blaine and I have to report for meetings tomorrow. YUCK! It is still pretty hot, and who can think in this heat? But I guess it is the reason we are here. Blaine was on the radio today talking about football, blah, blah, blah! It was fun to hear him. We also got a visit from our good friends Zac and Amy! It is always nice to see friends from home. Kylee is getting excited for school and has made some cute friends. We hope all goes well with her at school. It is definitely going to be different for her. 
Kylee says "HI" to all and call her and text her as much as you can! Or post on the blog! Have a great week!

SO MUCH FUN!

We just had the best week! Lexi (one of my DT girls) sent a text that a bunch of them were coming down. Of course I could not let them roam aimlessly around St. George. So, they all stayed here for the week. We had Lexi, Bailey, Nikcole, Calli, Timbre, Viola, Collette, Sabree, and Stefanie! WOW! I hope they had as much fun as Kylee and I did. It was so good to see all of them and to hang out! We went swimming, eating, shopping, eating, lounging, eating, and boy watching! (not me, but Collette and the girls). Kylee loved hanging out with Timbre. They giggled all week. The girls went to Blue Bunny and ate 26 scoops of ice cream. The dessert was at least 2 feet high! It was crazy! They will get their names on a plaque that is displayed in the store! 
 They left on Friday and we were very sad. It is always hard to see our families go! Kylee becomes so sad and it makes me feel terrible! But it was such a great week! WE LOVE ALL OF YOU! THANKS FOR COMING AND PLEASE COME AGAIN!

Getting Settled

Ok! Here we go! We are BLOGGING! 
I guess we are the last people on the earth to create a blog, and we thought it would be a good idea to keep people aware of what we are doing down here in the beautiful South! Things are going well. We are in our house (sort of) and unpacked (sort of). We are anxious to have guests, so please start booking your reservations! No pool just yet, but if you complain enough, I think the management will give in! Kylee is still adjusting. She really loves her dance school and is starting to get used to the hot weather. Blaine is busy with football, as usual! I am actually a little bored. I really have a lot that I should be doing, but I am enjoying the fact that I get to be a little bored! It has been a long time since I have had time to be bored. Derek is planning on college in the fall. His plans change daily so we will keep you posted on that one. But, we are happy that college is in his plans!! We are all a little bummed that school begins so early. We really have not had a chance to hang out at the pool. We also have not had a lot of time outside because it is so hot. When we go outside, it is a ghost town. Everyone stays inside throughout the summer. I love the heat, but the other two don't love it as much as I do.
