Help!

There MUST be an easier way to edit the way your posts look other than trial and error! Please let me know what I am doing wrong! I am a horrible perfectionist when it comes to formatting - it sometimes takes me a couple hours to put together a single scrapbook page because it has to look exactly right. Does anyone have any tips on how to make formatting less of a pain for blogging?

Crabbing!

Over the weekend, we went crabbing. Definitely a first for Jenna, Miriam and I! Jenna had a ton of fun watching Dad pulling all the traps up and dumping them in the bucket. Miriam mostly hung out sitting in the the chair and being lugged around on my hip. She really wanted to reach into the bucket and grab a crab - she was extremely interested when they were wiggling around in there and splashing all over the place.

Our largest crab that we caught.













Here's Luke holding the plate so you can all see how big it was.

Jenna loved playing with the crabs after they were cooked!

Houston

Most of you know that Luke has had two internships in Pocatello with J.R. Simplot Co. We are in Houston, Texas, this summer for our last internship! We have settled in well and are enjoying the area. Luke's brother, Pete, lives in Galveston, so we get to see him and his wife Andrea fairly often. Jenna loves "Uncle Pete's house" and loves going to the beach and picking up as many seashells as possible whenever we go. I got my first taste of salt water fishing - didn't catch anything, but there will be many more opportunities! The way things are looking, we might end up back down here in Houston after Luke graduates in December. We might not be with the same company as where he is interning, but there is a lot of opportunity and a lot of industry down here that we are looking at for the future.

I've added a few of the pictures from the trip down to Houston from Moscow. Jenna really enjoyed seeing her cousins when we passed through Idaho. Miriam also got along quite well with Landon.

I finally did it!

I finally got around to starting the family blog! I figured that with our moving around so much, this might be the easiest way to keep all our friends and family updated on what is going on with our little family! So...here it is.
