House Sold

Well we have a signed offer at least and for as good a price as reasonable right now. We feel very blessed. It's a load off our minds for sure.

DroidQuest

Well, the home's still on the market. Feedback so far is that people think it looks nice, but it seems too small to them or not the floor plan they want, I guess at least at the price range we're asking.

We did find someone to take our dryer through Freecycle. The we probably will need to stack the washer/dryer in Norman, and we don't have a gas line in the apartment we're going to, either.

Meanwhile, I was remembering Robot Odyssey, so we found some old disk images of the game and an Apple II emulator. But it doesn't go full screen, which is sad. However, we also found DroidQuest, which works great despite its flaws. It also has some convenient mouse support. Jacob spent a few hours on the tutorials yesterday, not always patient enough to read and follow instructions carefully, though.

Also, David finished Fablehaven book 2 last night, so we don't have to be afraid of mentioning the plot out loud anymore. Book 3 just appeared in the library system here, too, so I requested that.

Home on the Market

Well, we got done enough to put our home on the market. Still some stuff to clear out of the garage, though.

Back at the Mormon Center

They finished the new Scholar Way building and had the open house this week. Today our ward met at the Mormon Center. Been a few years since we attended there, I think. It's now Temple Hill, too. The Mormon Center is also where Kristine and I had our California wedding reception.

Temple and Floridians

Kristine and I got to the temple yesterday for the first time in a while. With the new chapel being finished here in Folsom, we're also going to be attending church on Temple Hill at the chapel called the Mormon Center starting next week. The whole land area used to be called Mormon Center, but it's had a new name since the temple was built.

Today, I learned that a Johnson family moved into the ward from Tampa. They had been in Mark and Heidi's ward there. Small world. The dad's name is Matt. He's the only I one I've met so far.

We also downloaded some new StepMania songs yesterday.

Still been working on the house.

Priesthood Campout 2008

We were at Sly Park again (map here) for the Priesthood (AKA Fathers and Sons) Campout this year. Mostly, we had a pretty good time. Here are a couple of videos:





And here's a recent video of Zeke (who didn't come on the campout):

David on a Small Bike

Here's the video of David we mentioned a while back. If you look carefully, you'll see that the training wheels aren't usually on the ground. I couldn't convince him to get on a larger bike (of which we have a couple), but still this was fun:



And here's a picture of Anna from today. She's not really as branded as she looks. Just dirty (from ashy metal, still):
