So, I went grocery shopping saturday night, spending double what we normally do, because I hadn't been for SOOOOOOOOOOO long. Since the baby can't go out, it is harder for me to make it as often as I need to.
Anyway, Sunday morning I went to the freezer to pull out the pork chops to cook for lunch. When I picked them up, I realized...they were not frozen like they should have been. Then I started investigating more...soggy crookneck squash and zucchini, brown bags of mush that used to be frozen bananas, and watery Ice. You guessed it- our fridge went out on us! Of course after I had just been shopping!
Anyway, to no avail, it wouldn't keep our food cold, so we transfered what we could to our deep freezer and then put milk, cheese, eggs etc in the freezer part of old fridge. It still stayed somewhat cool, just not freezing like a freezer should be!
We found ourselves at Lowe's the next morning, buying a new fridge! I have always wanted a new one, because we didn't buy one when we built the house, it wasn't in the budget. But, now just was not the right timing. O-well, so I got a new fridge, on clearance already, and then he took another 10% off because there was a dent on the side that hides behind the cabinet anyway. It is nice to have water on the door, already cold...and ice to go with it. It is way bigger then our other one and we are excited about that.
Brad kept opening it last night and looking inside and saying, "I really like our new fridge hon!" We decided you know you are getting old when a New kitchen appliance is so exiciting!

congrats on the new fridge. When we moved here there was a new fridge with ice and water. Now we don't know what we would do without it. We must be getting old to. When we got our new kitchen table and chairs I thought it was so awesome.
We might be coming down over easter not such yet. I am ready to come today though.

yesterday was awesome weather. I was able to put a fleece pant/jacket on baby with a blankie and he was fine while I worked to prepare the garden. You must really love jake, brad would have to do some major convincing or "bribing" to get me to move to anywhere that has snow stay longer than a week! :) Stop by the house if you do come for easter. We should be here!

Hey Jennie-
It was good to hear from you. I can't believe how many old friends blogs I run into. What a cool thing. Things are going well. I am still doing YA's and am looking forward to going to australia this summer. I am still in school and have about a semester left here at byu. Other than that I am just working at BYU as Randy's assistant and doing freelance webdesign and videography. It looks like thigs are going well for you and your cute little family. Steve still lives in New York, but is not teaching anymore. He is just working and enjoying big city life. I know he has a blog, but have not been able to get to it for some time. Are you still in SF, or where are you living?
