One, Two, Buckle My Shoe...


I forgot to post that Gordon passed all his classes. There was one class he was worried about failing (anything below a 70% is failing in Pharmacy school). He did so well on the final that he raised his grade to a B. HAHA It was great! He only has one more semester of classroom study left and then he'll be out on rotations. It's crazy that we're getting this close to being finished. I'm not looking forward to the year apart when he's on rotations, though. Good thing I'll be in Utah so I can see family and friends. That'll help... but it's still not the same. I'll miss my Precious.

We went to Cheyenne to help Julie move today. Unfortunately we didn't get there until 10:00 and they had almost everything done already! Sorry, Julie. Her new place looks nice. I hope she gets along better with this roommate. Her last one didn't have quite the same moral qualities as she did.

While we were in Cheyenne we decided to get me some new shoes. I've been wearing this pair for about 10 years. The insides are worn all the way to the soles and they are backless... not a good pair of shoes for Laramie in the winter. Let's just say my feet have been cold for months.

Miranda isn't walking yet, but she is spending a lot more time up on her feet. We couldn't even get her to put weight on them before. Even the doctor tried and she would just lift up her legs into a sitting position in the air. It's funny. She still does it sometimes, but now she'll at least get up on her feet. We think she'll do the same thing she did with crawling. One day she'll decide she wants to and just start doing it perfectly... It's weird. She could do it all along but just didn't want to, and then BLAM!

kids are way funny that way...one day they will be crawling and the next they will be walking...get her around cousins that are walking all over the place and it will happen faster...

you should really get new shoes every year...old shoes do a terrible # on your back...and we aren't getting younger...

It will definitely be fun to see you guys...hopefully this vacation trip to Utah...

Jenacy was the same way. She didn't walk at all, then one day stood up and walked 4 steps. The next day she was walking like she'd been doing it for months!!!

We drove through Laramie on our way to/from UT last week. I thought of you! I wish I could have come and seen you (but I totally forgot to email you and get your phone number n stuff. it's been stressful and my mind is shot!)
