A brief update is in order. I am still reeling from yesterday's BYU/Utah game so if this is short it's because I had to go lay down again. I'm in deep depression. Today was the first Sunday dinner of the semester with all the college kids back. It felt good to have them all around the table again.

I'm so glad that Allison and Courtney decided to stay with us this semester. It makes my day 100 times better to come home and hear a little about their day. Plus, they are in the dinner rotation now and cook on Wednesday and Thursday, so Nancy and I just sit around and wait for them to call dinner time. It's super fun, and they are great cooks and getting better all the time.

We are picking out tile to go with the new kitchen counters that were installed last week. The big debate is whether we should get a tile guy to do it in one day for us, or if I should give it a shot and tile the back splash myself . . . what do you think?
