Our "new" car


Ok so this is a picture of the car we will be buying from the Funderburg's. It is a Honda Mobilio. I would describe it as a miniature Honda Element. It does seat five adults and two "midgets" in the back. :)

Dre thinks it is more like a miniature mini van Ha ha.

It will be fun driving!!

Bye Bye at the airport


We headed to SLC International Airport on Tuesday.

Spencer did well. Wanted me to come back home with them. Holden, well he is Holden. Like usual he had an explosion in his pants and mom had to change him. He is a happy boy.

I am going to post some pics with this so you can see us all but mom. (she is taking the pics)

Dad had a long flight and then a 3.5 hour bus ride. The bus did arrive at Marugame train station about 30 minutes early. Andrew was there to pick me up. It was a good thing as it was raining like crazy. I would have had to wait in the rain for him. We arrived at the house and I took a shower and tried to go to sleep. The time difference was hard. I am still adjusting.

Prep for Japan Departure

Well the closet is a mess and the suitcases are everywhere in the bedroom. I have been going through so much "stuff" deciding what to keep what to take and what to get rid of. Crazy.

Aunt Sherri and Mom came down today to see us. Rob and little Robbie and Tan man came with as well. Spencer was thrilled to see and play with some cousins. Andrea and I sat and talked with Aunt Sherri and Mom. It was a good time for all. Patrick has already told Sherri that he wants to come visit us.

I leave on Tuesday and feel like I am leaving everything behind. I should be back in a few months to pick up Andrea and the boys. We are excited and scared all at the same time. Andrea keeps telling me to not think and pack like I am going on a mission. :) Ha. that is a goot one. I am taking my bike and two suitcases of clothing, shoes, books, and the essentials. I figure if I miss items then I can pick them up when I come back. We will see. :)

Andrew is excited for me to arrive, he wants to "dump" all of his knowledge on me. I will be shadowing him for a time and then taking over the classes and the like. CRAZY.

We did set up Skype with the web cams. Email me if you want our info.

I will keep you posted as the days pass.
