A Trip: Part 2 and some other stuff

I do have good intentions to write on this blog! A month ago Dave and I went to Lake Tahoe with my family. We had a great time. There are so many funny pictures from that trip and I'll share just a few.The "other stuff" going on this last month includes my little brother Ty leaving for his mission. I remember the post I wrote about him getting his call, where did the time go? Honestly, it broke my heart saying goodbye. I'm used to seeing the kid almost everyday. I had a good cry about it but since we dropped him off at the curb I haven't cried since. He's serving the Lord, what could be better than that?We've heard from him several times since he reported to the MTC and he honestly loves it there. I was totally shocked but we're glad he's getting used to a missionary schedule. He also writes the funniest emails and letters. Basically he writes just like he thinks which means his thoughts are totally scattered, so funny.

Dave also caught a mouse at the gym where I work. The poor mouse must have been starving because Dave found him in the trash eating protein powder, gross. Dave had compassion and put the mouse in the dumpster where he could get lots of food easily. Currently we're looking for our first home. I find I get more frustrated about it than being excited. Is that a sign that it's not meant to be? Any great advice on home buying would be much appreciated! My hope is that I'll be able to update this blog more than once a month, hee hee.
