It is amazing how fast time goes by when pretty much all we do is work, day in and day out. Sorry we have been neglecting the blog, we just didn't think you all would be interested in hearing about what time we got up that day and what we had for dinner. Maybe I underestimate you (??).
Several weeks ago, after that short camping trip you probably all read about, Sam came up with this idea that he needed to sell his car (that he has had for about 9 months now) and get something that is four wheel drive. It is funny how he seemed to be able to convince me that it was a good idea with comments about it saving us money for kids and finding a more family friendly vehicle. What a sucker I am. So Sam put his car up for sale after that camping trip and sold it a short time later. We said goodbye to the Scion and have spent the last two weeks shopping for something new with every spare minute we have - including last Saturday from 9am until 6:30pm - all the while Sam telling me to never let him do this again. Ha ha! I guess we realized (again) that we don't like dealing with used car salesman and having to get up at 4:30am to drive each other to work and wait for two hours in the car for someone to be done with work...okay that last part was just me. Sam works some long, hard hours (and I am very thankful to him) and I felt like I was right there with him these past few weeks. But, finally we found it - a Toyota 4Runner that we pick up tomorrow. Hopefully that will keep Sam happy for a while:)
Here is a picture from our Fourth of July...Some friends in our ward invited us to their cabin that was about 1 1/2 hours away. We played pictionary, card games and guitar hero on Playstation 2. Even Sam enjoyed the games (except when the boys lost miserably at pictionary). We enjoyed the break from Phoenix and the 117 degrees it was that day! We missed you all in Sierra Vista and hope to continue our tradition again next year.

Yay! We love you guys! thanks for updating! I know how it is trying to keep up a blog when it's "same oo', same ol'"--sleep, eat, work, eat, sleep, eat, work, etc...I must admit that at least with little kids you have crazy stuff to take pix of and write about and people get a kick out of it. But we DO love to hear what you're doing and see pix and we really do love and miss you guys! Thanks for updating!
