Natalie started posted in her blog again (hurray! link to the left), and she posted this, about her summer. And she remembered a lot of great things, and did it in a concise way. Read for yourselves:

"I've seen some friends - mostly Meghan. Some of our summer adventures have included: seeing the most-funniest-ever movie "Napoleon Dynamite" at Fox Tower with Stephanie and becoming obsessed with all the funny lines and subtle stereotypes ("So you're like Pedro's cousins with all the awesome hook-ups?"); eating at two Taco House restaurants in one night (also with Stephanie); trying to get Barnabas to grow a fro (again, Stephanie was present); reducing ourselves to becoming MTV's "I Love the 90s" junkies while gorging ourselves with Papa Murphy's pizza and raw cookie dough at the place Meghan was house-sitting, which was furnished with a HUGE television and cable (now I know why cable is of the devil); attending an awesome Copeland concert, along with my sister, where we met Meghan's friend Matt from the board, and James Likeness from the band told Meghan she wasn't a freak; going to a "barbecue" (where we ate pizza) for the junior high group at my church and getting nailed by twelve-year-olds with water balloons; and, most recently, going stargazing at Larch Mountain with a group from my church - so beautiful!"

 
We are hoping to move into our house early next week.

Our dining room table has one semi-matching chair (meaning.. it's yellow but it's the right style and era). This is going to take forever- and we need chairs for our dining room table!

mmm... Saturday we are going to try and get together and really clean the house before we move ALL our crap in. Natalie made the assessment that we don't know HOW long it has been since this house has had a break from people moving in and out. I hope this means throwing things out that aren't our's. We are going to go shopping and buy cleaning supplies. Hopefully then, on Saturday, I can take our bookshelf and my headboard/footboard into the lawn and spray paint them.

Mmm. My babysitting job this week is a weird situation- but it's fine. I just have to drive a long way. I bought a new message board/magnet board at Target yesterday for our house.

Plus my car passed DEQ (yay!) and I gave the department of motor vehicles all my money.

Life right now is all about getting by and waiting for the next big thing. Move in- start school- seth comes in 2 weeks and 3 days!
