I am so confused as to why Jeremy and I and our family get left out of everything. On both sides of the family. I'm sure that no one is out to get us but, it just gets old. Really old. The two most recent examples......apparently there is a Trapp Family Reunion that NO ONE told me about. But, everyone else knows about it. Heck, they have plane tickets and everything. I found out 2 days ago. The reunion is July 9th......IN UTAH. So, guess we won't be making it to that one. Although my brother, Sam, has offered to take Tristan with him. Which is really cool! Another example. Jeremy's parents and siblings have a friend of the family that offers them meat when his cows are butchered. Then they get to fill their freezers with a crap ton of meat that will last them the year. And it is good, healthy meat. I have asked about this each time but, never get asked if we want/need any. Which we do. All the time. Pretty sure we spend more than the whole family combined on food. Whatever. I know that these are probably honest mistakes but, it is still annoying. I just need to take matters into my own hands and find someone that I know that has cows and talk to them about getting some meat from them.
These are just two minor incidents but, things like this seem to happen all the time to us. UGH. Are we really that annoying? Do people really not want us around? I get pretty annoyed with some people and the stupid things they do too but, I'm supposed to accept and tolerate. Whatever. Like I said, these things are two minor incidents.
On another note.....
Our appliances in the kitchen are crap. The dishwasher is broke, the fridge is broke, the stove top only has one burner that works. The microwave is wacky and hasn't worked right for over a year or more. Some guy on facebook the other day had bought a house and was buying all new appliances. He was selling the microwave(it was over the stove kind though, so I didn't get it), dishwasher, fridge, and stove! All are off white, which I am not real fond of but, can definitely tolerate. They are Amana and Whirlpool brand so they should be pretty decent. Anyway, all three pieces for $400!!! WOOT! We have to pick them up today. I really hope they stay working until we can sell the house. Now we can just focus on the cabinets and counter top without having to worry about the appliances too!! I hope this decision doesn't bite us in the butt!

Mom and Dad have gotten beef from Ned since I can remember. When I moved out I just made a point of telling them I wanted added to the list. You have to tell him a year in advance so he has enough cows..so if you tell them you guys are a for sure yes then you could be added to the list too. You should! It's an investment up front and is always this time of year but is definitely nice to have in the freezer whenever you need it. You can tell Weber's exactly how you want it cut and processed too so you don't end up with a bunch of crap you won't use. That is a call/visit you have to make as soon as Ned takes the cow to the locker. and you have to pick it up within a few days of it being done. (they will call you)
Sounds like a steal on the appliances. Super excited for you (for your sake) to have a dishwasher! Wohoo!
I have told them for the past few years. In fact, last year your mom made a comment about me not liking meat in white packages....she thought that because one time when we first moved back from Utah she gave us some meat from her freezer, only there was no label on it. I didn't want to use it because I didn't know what it was or how old it was or anything, haha! We all laughed about this last year when I said I wanted some of the meat (again). I just want some quality meat! lol! And not have to shop for it every other day.
