The Family Update

I know we have tons more pictures that we need to put on the blog, but that will have to wait. I'm going to give an undate at least for those people who occassionally or rarely check our blog. We went to Georgia to Grandpa and Grammy Lash's for Thanksgiving where Seth played in the Turkey-bowl and Kate and Nathan watched. We then flew back to Idaho to finish the semester at BYU-I and then hit the road (Jack) and drove the whole 27 hours to Illinois to be with Seth's family for Christmas. It was fun to have the whole family together, but Preston and Amy didn't get to visit for long, unfortunately. Seth got to fulfill his life-long dream of playing one of the new games he got off of E-Bay with his brothers---Samurai Swords. He says its easier than Axis and Allies but harder than Risk, for those of you who play strategy board games. It did not stop snowing the entire time we were there and I'm pretty sure we spent at least half of each day bringing in wood for the stove or shoveling the walkway outside. Actually, it wasn't that bad, and it was nice being in a house instead of a cramped apartment. Our drive to Georgia after the Johnson's was fairly pleasant, with Nathan sleeping 80% of the time. We plan to stay until at least after New Year's, but if we don't get an internship for Seth soon, we may be headed for a long-cold winter in Rexburg, ID. Don't worry, there are prospects on the horizon, we just have to wait out the storm. We'll put more pictures on soon as well, which will each share 1000+ words.
