The Wedding Reception in Atlanta





We went to Atlanta this weekend for Chris and Nadia's wedding reception at her parents house. We were welcomed warmly by her family and had a really good time getting to know everyone. Her Mom, Ruth has four sisters and one brother and so it was fun for me to get to know them. They were sweet and funny and as individual as my own sisters are. While we were in Atlanta we spent a little time seeing the sights. We ate at many good restaurants and visited Coke World...a must see if you ever go there, and toured the Fox Theater. Atlanta is a beautiful city and we loved experiencing the different culture there.

Is it so crazy that your little boy got married? My boys turned 5 yesterday and I am stunned at how quickly time flies. Christopher and Nadia look very happy together and the trip to Atlanta looked like lots of fun.

Amanda's Mission Call

Image
We waited 10 long weeks for Amanda's mission call to come!  She turned in her papers on December 16th and her call didn't arrive until February 20th.  That is an unusually long time to be waiting.  All around her friends and friends of friends were getting calls returned in as little as 1-3 weeks.  We were all starting to get discouraged.  Due to the new lower missionary age requirement we had been hearing that the MTC was being full to over flowing and we were beginning to worry that she wouldn't head out for her mission until late summer.  Not really what she planned on!  The last few weeks were especially difficult and I could tell Amanda was beginning to question and wonder if she had made the right decision and why in the world this was taking so long. It was so crazy! In the mean time Amanda and I had planned a trip to Seattle to visit Grandma Martenson and celebrate her 88th birthday!  I wanted Amanda to be able to see Grandma before she ...

Girl's Spa Day Out Gone Very Wrong!

Image
A few weeks ago I and a few of my cute co-workers decided to go for a "Girl's Spa Day"! We booked "Bodywraps" and talked about it for weeks, how fun it would be and how many inches we would lose. When they asked if we all wanted to be in the same room we replied sure..it would be more fun that way. We were pumped! The big day arrives and we show up at the appointed hour....little did we know. We each had our own personal body wrapper who escorted us into one big room with four beds and said, "Okay, take off your clothes!"

The rest of us had to don the "paper underwear" that they keep for just such occasions....oh my, it was like wearing a paper thong! We begged for robes...an essential part of any spa experience I have ever had...and were brought some towels ...
