What happened? We thought you died....

SORRY! I knew this blog thing was a bad idea. I can't seem to get to the computer ...for the purpose of blogging at least. Like right now, I'm supposed to be doing billing for the law firm I work for. I just updated the family blog with the update Troy wrote yesterday so I thought I'd quickly update my own. I have to make it fast as I have two two-year-old boys "exploring" the house (and garage) right now. Uhg.

As you read in the family update I have a tan. Yes, it's superficial and dangerously unhealthy, but man I look good. I managed to grab a good tan during the kids swim lessons this summer, but it faded much too much during our vacation and early weeks of school. So the past two Saturdays I got to be outside (4 hours one day and 7 1/2 hours the next day) and soak up the rays. I only use SPF 8 as I rarely burn (thank you Scandinavian ancestors) and now have a lovely tan line. And the day was great as well. The whole two days were almost like going to a spa ....if you could ingore the 40 11-yr-old scouts running around, the constant questions from parents and the initial pangs of embarassment and self-consciouness when people in your ward saw you in a swimming suit. Yes, almost like a spa. I did get a few minutes here and there to float in the pool and enjoy the company of the ladies I work with. What a great group of wonderful ladies.

Okay...time's up! The Boys just found water spray bottles and are turning my front room into a rain forest. Stay tuned, but not too often for more!
