Mmmm... Just sitting here enjoying my last full day in the States, wondering why my relatives sent me a link to a song called "Big Yellow Joint." As far as I know, they didn't send the link to anyone else in our family. Maybe they want me to meet them somewhere; maybe they think I have a drug problem. Who knows... Another odd thing happened to me yesterday. My sister Heather found a tiny, wrapped Christmas present with my name written on it. We thought maybe it was one of the gifts my husband had left behind when he went to [View Full Entry]

We left Logan Utah at 8:15 a.m. on Valentine's Day and arrived in Memphis at 6:30 p.m. Katherine did well on both fights, but switching terminals was extremely time consuming, because Katherine insisted on walking on tippy-toes. Today I have been packing and preparing for our journey to Germany. Katherine had a great time unpacking everything as I packed it. Grandma Bea came over to see Katherine this afternoon.

Tomorrow Katherine and I will be headed back to Memphis. This area is under a snow warning tonight and tomorrow morning. We're taking the shuttle to Salt Lake City Airport, so Pam doesn't have to worry about drivng us in the snow. Pam was checking the weather on TV today, and the 7-day forecast was funny: snow every day...except Friday which was a wintry mix. [View Full Entry]

This morning was much warmer (in the twenties). We decided to go sledding on old main hill. [View Full Entry]

We watched the news last night and they said it would be 20 degrees farenheit at 8:00 this morning, but it wasn't. When we left the house at 8:30 it was 4 degrees. So cold! Pam took the day off to go sightseeing with us, but she had to go in for a meeting at 9:00, so Katherine and I went with her. Katherine finger painted Pam’s office, while she was in her meeting. Then we all went home and ate lunch. When Katherine woke up from her afternoon nap, it was only 14 degrees outside, so we didn’t feel like [View Full Entry]

Today was a really lovely, sunny (but very cold) day in Logan. The mountains were really beautiful, but Katherine never let me slow down long enough to take pictures, sorry. We spent the day running around trying to get paperwork finished so we'll be ready to leave for Germany on the 17th. So far, we still have no tickets, so I'm not sure if it's really going to happen.

We got three more inches of snow last night. Pam is feeling even worse than yesterday. Katherine seems to be better, and I'm almost back to normal. Katherine kept me up again last night, so (just for revenge) I made her shovel snow this morning. [View Full Entry]

It’s snowing again. (We're under a snow advisory until 11pm Monday night.) Everything looks lovely with a fresh layer of snow over it. This morning we got as much rest as we could, trying to recover from our colds. Katherine only woke up twice last night. I think she’s feeling much better. This afternoon we walked to the grocery store. Katherine liked playing in the snow again. We didn't see any of the Super Bowl, but Katherine thought the Puppy Bowl on animal planet was mildly entertaining. Pam’s neighbors brought us homemade cookies that were delicious. [View Full Entry]

Katherine hasn't been feeling well. She was up last night from 1:00 to 5:00 a.m. Then she slept in my bed for 2 hours, and got up for breakfast. After a night of listening to crying, we were looking forward to nap time, but Katherine didn't take a nap. Pam got a guinea pig today. His name is Jeremiah and he's extra sweet. Katherine wanted to look at the guinea pig all the way home and she actually said her first complete sentence in the car. "It's my pig!" We're supposed to have snow showers tomorrow and Monday. Maybe we'll be [View Full Entry]
