A Gooey Goodbye

Lest you all think this is exclusively Luke’s blog, I’ll send a little shout out and post some of my comings and goings, too.

We’ve had quite an event filled week trying to cram as much Aunt Brookie (my little sister) into our lives as possible before we have to say good bye for 18 months. (Brooke enters the MTC on Wednesday to prepare for her mission in El Salvador and Belize.) We had sleepovers and Dairy Queen runs and she even came to work with me to help out with my Child Birth Ed class I teach at the hospital. Tonight we shared her last family home evening here at our house. After the lesson, everyone was kind enough to satisfy this romantic idea I’ve had of roasting marshmallows on a snowy night in our basement fireplace. It was pretty fun.

Waits online!

Well, here goes...we're finally online. We kept hearing about the inner-nets; apparently there is a world-wide web, or a "www" if you will. It's everywhere. Our siblings informed us we needed to hurry or we would be the last to discover the "blog."

So, we got a modem for our computer to dial in to the webs...



We are having a launch party tonight to kick off the new blog...









So if you are going to be around, I think Lisa said the party is at a club called "Chat Room," and there's a password to get in--which is actually "password." I'm not sure where it is, but I think there are three W's at the beginning of the address.

Now I just need to convince Lisa to let me get a cell phone and the Waits will finally arrive in the 90's:


Here are a few recent pictures of the kids:
