You probably didn't notice that it was 2012. I didn't. But since it is, I better post something so that people who come to my blog don't think this it is a fake blog from 2011. Oh wait. Only people who know me come to this blog, and they are all onto the fake blog.
A lot of things have happened this year. For starters, I learned how to use itunes. Kimball was made a partner at Gem State Radiology. All of my kids had birthdays. We watched hundreds if not thousands of fireworks on July 4th from every window in our house in Eagle, Idaho, where apparently fireworks are purchased like milk and bread. I went with my daughter to Build-A-Bear for the first time (and hopefully last), my youngest son graduated kindergarten, I learned how to say graduated kindergarten instead of graduated FROM kindergarten, my oldest boy started Cub Scouts and asked me for 2 weeks if I like the Bobcat pin they give the moms. What else?.....
We are really loving the area where we live. It's quiet, and there is a tight community feel. It's safe, and the schools are very good. We think it's beautiful, but since beauty is in the eye of the beholder, we'll let you decide when you come to visit us. Also, it turns out it's very hot. We've had plenty of 100-degree days this month. We don't have fantastic ethnic food options (we do have mediocre ones), and unless you are in the Apple store in Boise proper, we also aren't the picture of diversity. I miss those things, but I make ethnic food, and I feel very diverse; and also, I guess you can't have everything all the time. What we have is pretty darn great, and we are happy campers. Not literally. I don't sleep on rocks with bugs and bears. Focus on the "happy" part.
