First Video

This is her first video. It's a little dark and we're learning that to post videos on the blog we have to keep them short. She lets out a cute little wail towards the end.

It's been forever...

If anyone is still reading this blog, I apologize for not posting in months. Things haven't changed much here. We still have both houses up for sale or for rent, and even with 49 showings and counting, we haven't had any offers. Blech! This weekend Jeff heads to Texas for a week to visit his family, and I will spend the week in my condo. Woohoo! No commute! I will be in Jackson for the weekend for a friend's baby shower. Should be fun...
