Thelma Discovers Bubble Wrap

This post is simply about the excitement about Thelma had when she realized that bubble wrap popped when she chewed on it.

Sure I'll help you unwrap the new dishes from Wendy!

... but wait! What is this?

That was fun!

House Gifts

Just wanted to share some of the first house gifts we got. No way you are seeing the inside of the house yet. It scares me! haha.

Can't wait for lots and lots of yummy steak, chicken, shrimp, fish, etc. dinners!

Thelma and Mark look the best in this one!

 Thanks to Pam and Michelle, Anthony didn't starve during our first few nights in the new house. Here is our fridge and the meal that they got us. It was the first thing we put in our new fridge in our new house! So new, so exciting. So much to do!

Chicken, macaroni salad, potato salad, and bread(not pictured) haha. It was delicious!

Thank you Judi and Mark! Thank you Pam and Michelle!

Jags Adventure

After months of planning, everything almost went perfectly... we surprised Uncle Les with Jaguar tickets for Christmas. So we went to church and then after sacrament meeting we pulled Uncle Les aside and gave him a present to unwrap. It was a Jags shirt and then we said, "You'll need this for the game. We have tickets and we are leaving church early to go get ready for the game." He was in SHOCK but was so excited.

They put the mustaches on at the game in the stands

We were in section 217 row V seats 9, 10, and 11

My Kahn look-alike

Uncle Les had fun with the 'stache and was popular among other fans

The 3 of us taking by a super excited fan- She jumped up during EVERY play

Droopy Kahn mustaches in the rain

You couldn't see anything in the sky- the weather was not friendly

You can see the final score in the background 41 to 14 BOO TAMPA!

Final photos with the teams running out on the field after the game

You can see how icky the weather was from this picture! It was such an exciting game!

In honor of the new Jaguars owner, Anthony and Uncle Les got fake mustaches and wore them for the game. On our way to the game, we stopped at Let's Nosh to get some sandwiches to eat while we tailgated at the game. As we rode up Roosevelt to get onto I-95 something strange happened, Anthony lost control of the car. His transmission went out and we ended up stranded at a gas station with no wheels and 30 minutes to kick off. With a positive outlook and optimistic spirit fortune came upon us; we ran into a couple going to the game and asked for a ride... they said yes! We gave them a little money and thanked Manuel and Tatiana for their generosity.

AND THE JAGS WON!!! 41 to 14 We beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers! It was an awesomely long and wild day but getting picked up by Vivian after the game, we left exhausted, happy, and drenched by some light rain. Our first Jags game was amazing!

Life in the BOX

Check out our life during the move...

Woo Hoo! Can't wait to more than double our square footage!!! Stay posted- house pics coming soon!

Getting ready to take our first load to the new house

Things got WAY worse than the above picture... we were so lucky to have friends from church (Lorna, Justin, Stephen, Kelly, Mitch, Ray, Elder Graham, and Elder Camp), our family (Dickie, Judi, and Mark), and my friends (Brenda and Brian). Without them, we'd still be in that apartment.
