Our first major stop was Rhine Valley in Germany. There we took a boat ride up the river to one of the many castles. My favorite part was seeing the terraced grape crops all along the river. In the little town that we stayed in, we had our first of dozens of pizzas. At that…
We continued our tradition of taking pictures at temples. However, we just realized that we forgot to go see the Switzerland Temple. Bummer. But here is the Frankfurt, Germany Temple.
…a very good place to start. Wait, that was more towards the end of the trip. We’ll get to that one later. Let’s start with Utah. After several longs days of organizing, packing, and then just shoving things where they fit, we finally were out of our apartment. We managed to cram all of our…
Yes, I know it’s been forever. Did you not remember that we were going to be transient for a month and a half? Oh wait, make that two. Among many, many other things, it’s great to be back on my computer. We had a little netbook during our travels. It was great for google maps,…

Yesterday was Katelyn’s 6-month checkup. So here they are: weight: 13 pounds, 11 ounces (still 16th percentile) height: 24 inches (5th percentile) head: I don’t know but “just under 50th percentile” said the doc Everything went well and the doctor said she doesn’t have any concerns. I was a little baffled by the questionnaire that…
Before Katelyn was even born I bought these jammers (obviously on clearance). My initial thought was, “eh, it’s kinda cute.” That thought turned into, “ah, who cares. It’s fleece so it’ll be nice and warm.” The first time I put it on her I knew it was completely ridiculous looking and I felt bad dressing…
