Where to begin…
After almost a month of keeping everyone in breathless anticipation of our inaugural post, here I am at the computer ready to type away. Except that I find I have absolutely no idea what to say. Brett is definitely the funny one in the family so I guess that leaves me the smart one?
We have finally finished putting away the majority of all our “stuff”. For those of you who don’t know, we just moved from Draper to American Fork last weekend. Neither one of us can believe how much junk we have already accumulated in our 9.5 months of marriage. And yes, Brett is still holding on to his duct tape pants despite my insistence on throwing them away. We’re pretty happy with our new place considering we have doubled the size of living space AND saved several hundred dollars a month. I guess that’s what you get for downgrading to Utah County, no offense. We’ll let you know how the neighbors turn out and what we think of the ward in the next couple of weeks. I’m sure it will be interesting.
It’s four minutes to ten o’clock right now and Brett is quite insistent that we are still going to go to Wal-mart tonight. Ever since playing Guitar Hero at Katie and Justin’s he has been absolutely obsessed with getting one when they come out for the Wii (our machine of choice). So it came out last week but we’ve been waiting til payday to get it. It is our Christmas present after all. So guess what today was? That’s right, payday. To his credit he does try to stay calm when he talks about it. Every once in a while though, he gives it away with a little giggle to himself and I know he is imagining himself on his knees wailing on his guitar. I am going to do whatever it takes to get a picture of him acting like the ten-year old I know is buried down in there.

Excellent post Whittney–it was worth the wait. As I recall, “the ten-year old I know is buried down in there” is not buried too deep. Mention Teddy Ruxpin and broken jaw in the same sentence and you’ll know what I mean.

Yay!!!!! Finally! Good job Whitt-I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw something other than “Whittney will be crafting the first post…”. We want to try out the new guitar hero soon please! By the way Brad–you did a GREAT job on that stuff for Josh. I am sure he will love it. You are dang talented.

Hey Brettney; what’s this blog thing all about? Is this where I ask B where my tape measure is?
