Finally, we are hooked up with modern technology at home!  It only took us four months due to a little procrastination and a lot of cultural infamiliarity!   We were hooked up yesterday so last night I spent the evening purusing some of my favorite websites and blogs that I haven't keeped up with since our move.  Amy and Katie, you both have wonderful blogs.  It was so nice to get family updates and pictures.  So, now I realize that this blog really needs photos.  Now that I can do this at home, I'll start attaching pics with my posts.  However, Travis is a little hesitant to move the internet on our main home computer until we get a handle on pop-ups and such.  We don't want to be bombarded with trash emails and sites.  I'll try to get a picture or two on here soon though.

It has been a very rainy and windy weekend.  The wind storms around here are horrible!  It blows for days at a time and they are so fierce that you have hold on to doors as you open them and watch out for palm fronds that get blown off the palm trees, etc.  It's horrible to go out in and honestly, it affects my mood and makes me feel very grumpy.  So, we stayed indoors and had a wonderful weekened at home with fires in the fireplace, a couple movies, a few board games,  American Idol episodes, homemade chocolate chip cookies and several naps on the couch.  The kids may have been a little bored at times but Travis and I have been loving it!
