Listen Up!

Tomorrow my nephew, Justin Trapp, the handsome boy on the left, will be leaving Carthage for Utah! He's headed to the MTC for his mission!!! We are so proud and happy for Justin! He's been called to the Las Vegas, NV mission, spanish speaking. He's excited!

Speaking of Vegas. I don't like that place.

Today was home school group. I love it. All the families in the group contribute something and it's turning out to be so awesome. Today was Music class and Computer class. Tristan is learning the recorder in music class and html in computer class! He's so excited! Susannah Coleman and I are going to tackle the Art class together. We will have two groups; the younger group is 7 and under and the older group is 8 and above. Our first class is next week.
Then I went to the store where I forgot everything that I went for and came home with all the wrong stuff. I hate that.
Oh and I took Cullen to his 4 month check up the other day and he weighs 14 lbs. 7 oz. I think. And 24 and 1/2 inches long.

Jeremy and I are trying to plan a vacation. What's funny is that there are lots of offers out there where you can stay for free if you listen to a timeshare sales pitch. I can't believe that there are people out there stupid enough to own a time share (sorry if you're one of the stupids). What a freakin joke!! and waste of money! Jeremy and I were suckered in once when we first got married and were living in Utah. We got out of it though, thank goodness! Seriously, who wants a timeshare for the same exact time, same exact place, every. single. year. BORING. Also, if you end up not being able to go that year, you have to find someone to take your spot and pay you for it, or you end up with a vacation bill without the vacation. Dumb. Hate timeshares. I would hate to be a timeshare salesperson. I would laugh myself all the way through the presentation.
Here was a selling point of the timeshare we bought into. "ANd you can get free soupons for any food or household product you want, sent straight to your home!" WHAT????? Are you kidding me? whatever.

Blah, blah, blah. My baby needs the boob, will go now.

The only thing I will remember from this blog - "Baby needs the boob." Priceless.

My mom got a time share in Branson. Hers was paid off years ago, so it's not too bad. Especially some place like Branson, where they are always adding new stuff.

I think she can switch to another place for one year for an extra fee? I can't remember, because she mentioned it, but never does it.

I will never get one because I'm with you and would never want to go on vacation to the same place every year.

I'm not in to time shares, but my parents bought one, paid cash, for a resort abt 20 miles from where they lived, and that seemed to work out pretty good. We didn't mind coming up during their wk either. haa

Nevada!!!!

That's where us cool people go to for missions!!!!!

Awesome.

And although it was a great place for a mission, I will grant you that the strip is the world's lamest place ever.
