Last post on this...

Ok, i think maybe 2 people follow this, but just in case, I think this is the end to this blog. Doug says we need a family blog now. So here are just a few pics from the wedding and I guess there will actually be one more post telling you the new address of our new family blog. that makes me happy.

September 12, 2009 in the Sacramento Temple. Best day ever.

Just after we took the plunge...

[ groceries will cost 45% less... ]

If you want to see how far your money would go in another city, try out this Cost of Living calculator from CNN. Jessica... I'm moving to Houston. But seriously, housing, 70% less! And groceries!


But I suppose there is something to say for paying the extra.... and it looks something like this. Thanks Adam A. Palmer for taking awesome pictures :)

[ old to you... new to me! ]

I finally got a new car! I've been searching and searching and I have been wasting soo much time (and doug's too and he's about had it) and looked at about 40 cars and i finally found one i felt ready to buy. here she is. a 1999 honda accord. she's practically brand new inside, even with the new car smell :) it's automatic, so that's a bit strange, but i'm sure i'll get used to it. And there are some scratches on the outside, but that's ok with me. Only 63K, one owner and it has a sunroof! Yeah! Can you tell i'm a little excited? Mahalo James in Hawaii Kai for wanting a brand new one :)
