We Like It!!!

I'm trying to do my best with keeping everyone updated this past month, since we've had a lot going on and have left so many of our friends in Texas. Mac has just finished his first 2 weeks of work and really likes it. He gets every other Friday off, so it'll make for some great long weekend trips! Yesterday we went out to Talmage to visit with the grandparents and Uncle Coy. Connor loves it out there! After dinner it was still nice out so, Mac and I went to pound fence posts in for Uncle Lynn and Grandma came out with Connor to help us out! I felt like such a farmer out in the country doing my part! I kept telling Mac, "Wow, I'm really helping you huh? Seriously, you're going way faster with my help!" Obviously I was looking for some validation. I think I was just surprised at how I could be that helpful and useful out working on the farm.

Every Saturday we've been going to the Vernal City Pool and we all love that as well. Mac and I are trying to get in swimming shape for a triathlon this summer. It's amazing how much better we've gotten in a short amount of time. By no means are we great swimmers though...we've just had lots of room for improvement!

So far, we've met very nice people here in our neighborhood and church. We're looking forward to getting to know everyone better, but it just takes time. We're really looking forward to our trip to Alaska especially Mac because for his Birthday this year I surprised him with a Halibut Charter! He's so excited and was pretty surprised since I usually get him clothes. I thought this year I ought to try to give him something he'd actually get excited about!
