The Gift of Tongues

Oh, Look! More Lambas Br...uh Random Thoughts

We recently made a few changes inside our house. Nothing outside has changed except it's hotter and we don't let Keara go out near as often. Of course then we do have a compost pile Cheri has put together, which is just another reason not to let Keara go out.

But on the inside, we finally did it! We got a pet, or two, or three. Cheri and I spent part of our date night at Wal-mart buying some goldfish for Keara. It was quite comical as the guy dumped half of our fish and water onto Cheri's pants at the store. Somebody told us that they would give you free fish if the ones you bought died in less than 72 hours. Well, ours didn't make it 12 hours. So, we went back and got this guy instead.

Keara has appropriately named him Blue. We tried to get another name out of her, something more interesting or original and she came back with Green and Yellow. So Blue it is. Keara could give or take him, but Cheri is quite attached. I think its because she is incharge of feeding him every morning, you know, the whole motherly connection thing.

Cheri also got tired or our white house. Here is what used to be Taryn's room but is now Keara's room, though it will be Keara and Taryn's room again when she is older or another baby comes along. Inspired by some of the houses of some of our friends Cheri did one wall as you see here and the rest of the room is divided into the Neopolitan look. Vanilla bottom, strawberry top and chocolate in between.

At last we got to our kitchen. We have had the inclination to paint it red since we moved in but at the time were so tired of painting the rest of the house we didn't want to mess with it.

And the final change can be shown here in this picture below. Have you figured it out?
Yes, we have friends! And no it's not a ward activity, though that is where all of our friends come from. But after moving around so often in our college lives we have almost been here for two years (end of the summer). We have always found people we liked but because of being around them for so short of a time it was harder to establish the deeper relationships. Here we have found some really good and genuine friends that we love being with and feel the same in return. (This refers to friends we have made since we have been married)
