Reuben is home from the Navy

Reuben went into the Navy reserves in May. He is done with his training and job training. He is home for who knows how long. He thinks he will go to Afghanistan in a year or so, but until then he will just do the one weekend a month and two weeks a year thing for the reserves.
We all went to the airport Friday night at 10:00 to see him come in. His luggage of course was lost so we had to wait until the very last bag to make sure it was lost and then report it lost and it did finally come to my house Saturday afternoon. Everyone came back to my house and spent the night Friday. It was really good to have the whole family there. (of course no Dan because he was out of the country on a flight) We had German pancakes with Carmel syrup for breakfast and then went for a run on the track. Reuben had a hard time running because of the higher elevation vs California. He also thought it was SO COLD!!! We teased him so much.

Then we went to the park and took photos. Right when we were going to take the good ones, my camera batteries died and I had to go get some and by the time I got back everyone was sick of posing. So I didn't get great ones, but some turned out.

Just hang'n with my BOY

Connelly has been so fun now that he is potty trained. Yes you heart me, HE IS POTTY TRAINED. Not one accident in two weeks. He will even tell me when he has to go when he is busy playing. I know this is abnormal and I'm very fortunate. I ran upon these picks from this summer and just thought how cute they were. We went to Cherry Hill resort in Kaysville this summer and had a lot of fun.

Found a home

Bell has found a new home. After I put her up for FREE on ksl.com, I got a ton of calls. The first little old lady that came to look at her snatched her right up. I was really surprised because Bell snapped at her right off, but I guess things are going well now. The lady called me later in the day, and said, "thank you, thank you. Bell is the dog I've waited for my whole life." She said that Bell just followed her around all day and the neighborhood kids love her. I'm so relieved.

New Computer

So Nate needed, not wanted, a new computer. I have been out a computer for three days and I thought I was going to die. I missed out on blogging and downloading recipes. I doubt that Nate and I use a computer to the max of it's capabilities, but we of course needed a new one. The old one was four years old and according to Nate was "out dated, and too slow". It did the job for me, but I guess Nate does do Peach tree on it for his company and that supposedly slows things down. All I know it that my computer is downstairs now!! Yeah!! I wanted it downstairs because upstairs was too hot and then when the kids start working on it it is in an open environment. I love it. The screen is HUGE and the keyboard is so nice and I type way, way faster!!! The one thing about this new computer is that the computer place didn't transfer my pictures. I have a million pictures and they need to do this so until they transfer I can't update you on my family pix for now. I think, I ...
