Brrrrrrr....It's SO Cold!!!!
Hi guys!!!
Well, today was a super COLD day!!! It SNOWED!!! I wasn't home to see it snowING...but Matt told me all about it!!! and we have the picture for proof. When I arrived it was still there but beginning to become slushy. Yeah! I got to see snow! First time in 4 years!!! :) Oh, what joy! :)
So, aside from that cool incident, I thought I was going to freeze today. For some reason, 30 degrees feels a lot colder up here than down in Arizona! :)
I went to Seattle with my grandma today for a Dr. visit so it was fun to go over on the ferry...but no city fun. I worked on my scarf (croshitting as I call it; otherwise known as crocheting) on the ferry...and got stuck listening to some guy pin me into a discussion about car engines, planes and eventually Galileo...hmmm....whatever...several times I tried to talk to Gram but to no avail, he kept on and she didn't save me!!!! :) Oh well, I guess he just needed someone to talk to for a while. Bless his heart.
So, there you have it. :)
I miss Arizona. I never NEVER thougt I'd say those words...but it's true.

Matt just told me a few moments ago he would like me to start ironing his socks........? Hmmm. I don't know what he ate today at work...but, I'm pretty sure that won't be happening...as long as they are dry! :)

As I was driving home this evening, I heard this song and thought of the 2 of you ... Can you name the movie? www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ELS1jDwh6Y John (Matt’s Dad)
Cristin - 2007-02-22 19:42:12
Hmmm....before I even listen to it....I’m thinking it may have something to do with BULLITT??? ;)
Cristin..... - 2007-02-22 19:44:50 That one Elvis movie we borrowed from you.....? WHAT IS THE NAME??????????????????????? ;))) Matt says you are talking about some other movie....I think it is the one we borrowed....but can’t think of the name. ;)
Matt - 2007-02-22 22:30:59
Okay folks...here we are. You may now comment on any post you’d like. Be nice...or else!!! Enjoy!
John - 2007-02-23 04:58:49
So how do you comment on other posts? Like this? Cristin - name of the song is? Movie is of the same name. 1962. Lady in the youtube clip is mother of Tatum O’Neal. Do you know her name? What was her regular TV series role?

FREE TIME
Baby...I"m so proud of you! You have done a wonderful job creating our website....and I love it!!! :) I"m proud of you getting up early and working so hard and earning $$$ to pay our bills while I slave away making freshly squeezed orange juice (actually haven't done the O.J. yet)homemade chicken noodle soup and pot roasts all while listening to Matlock and Little House On The Praire.....it's been so long! :) Oh, but I love it!
Okay...so, doesn't our site look awesome!?!!!! I love it and he has done a most excellent job. I realize that he is still adjusting to a routine still and has come home now two days in a row with fevers...poor baby. We are trying to get used to things...I think Matt has adjusted a little quicker than myself...but, time will pass and I will adjust.
Bella (the bundle; kitty) spends her evenings meowing with us. She comes in the room and meows. I don't think she has realized yet that we are here permanantly and Smith will not be coming over anytime soon. :(
Okay for now. We must get to bed. :)

WHITE FLAG
Well, I've decided to throw in the towel for now on trying to build my own blog... I have figured out a lot of stuff, but it's really complicated. Anyway, I'm ashamed that I've been defeated and have to succumb to blogspot. What's the saying?... "you're unique... just like everyone else". Oh well, I'm glad that comments can now be posted for specific blog posts, as well as in the regular guestbook. It seems a bit redundant but not really I guess. They really are 2 different things.
So, I started my job this week. It is cool! I'm training, so I have a commute... which means I have to get up way early (5AM). But it's a really great company with excellent people! This could easily be the best job I've ever had.
Cristin is wonderful! She has made lunch for me to take to work and put a little note on my napkin. She has been working very hard taking care of G&G. It's really a challenge, but she's handling it like a pro. I'm proud of how radical she is! I totally love her and she deserves lot's of pretty things that I can't afford right now... doubt ye not the glorious damzel that yet I did marry!
Anyway, be sure to check out Wes' website. There are some really amazing musicians on the new album... ahem! ;) Seriously though... Wes worked super hard (and Tonya made a significant sacrifice also). It's a great project that showcases a lot of talent on the instruments, vocals, production and spirit. I'm very stoked on it!
Anyway, we've been seeing a little sun here lately (which is really weird!) although it's been super cold! Everyone here say's "it's all about May thru August"... hmmm, we'll see. All in all, it's very nice here and we are truly enjoying it.
We've both been really busy and are trying to make the most of the little free time we have, but it's great to hear from you all and we will try to be in touch more. We Love You All!
Peace out homeskittles!

RAINBOWS
(Okay, so first of all, I'm going to say that I don't agree with Matt's posting earlier today. That's all I'm going to say, because I do have a strong opinion of my own.)
Now, today after church we went out on a little date and that was so much fun! We went and looked at bikes.....we want to get some bikes. :) We both found one that we really liked and now we just have to save up for them. They are really cute, well, mine is! Mine is pink, just like I've wanted. Then we went to Red Robin for lunch and THEN to Starbucks to enjoy some fine tasting coffee. :) I love just "being" with Matt. It is so enjoyable for me to be able to spend time with him just hangin'. We came home and then saw this:

It is so amazing....God's creation! You can't really tell in the picture...but the rainbow is actually pretty close to us. In the bible the rainbow represents God's promises to us as Children of God.....and whenever I see a rainbow, I think about all that God has told me, and the things He has called us to do as a couple, and I'm so thankful for His promises and His words to us. It is truly a blessing and an awesome reminder when I see something so beautiful and amazing as this. It is so wonderful to look out the window and see that....It's like a surprise and He's been waiting all day to give it to me. :)
Have a fantastic day, and remember how much He loves you and how much joy you bring to Him.

SUNDAY
So... it's Sunday morning and we're about to head off to church, and I saw this video on someone's blog. I believe in the power of God, but Benny Hinn is ridiculous beyond belief. The video is totally funny!
Oh well... anyway, I'm happy to say that we have found a cool church. We went for the first time last week and really liked it. We're going back today and will most likely continue.
Also, I would like to encourage everyone to learn about feeds. You'll notice the atom link on the right. It's really cool if you find yourself checking blogs and/or news websites periodically for updates and what not. Click this link to learn more about how cool it is.
Anyway, peace out everyone... have a totally rad day!
