The Droid's View

I spent last week in Utah and Idaho visiting everyone I know. It was great. Now that I am the proud owner of a Droid X (thanks Dad), I have started taking pictures at all of those random times when you don't usually have a camera! And they are so easy to upload! So I present...my Droid's version of the trip:

We had a mini-law school reunion. Kari ordered ribs. She didn't understand that ribs are not a dainty food to eat and sometimes look like something from The Flintstones. I had an unfortunate experience with ribs at Medieval Times and can never eat them again.


I went up to Salt Lake for a day and had my cousin Julia show me around Grandma's house. If only I had a job in Salt Lake and $500,000, I would totally buy the house. But for now they are giving it a makeover and it looks awesome but I almost started crying when I walked in the front room and saw this:


Here's where the piano was:


And the first floor hallway:


They have yet to replace the basement's 70's wood paneling, but I'm assured it will happen soon. Maybe by then I'll have saved enough for a down payment...

A lot more great stuff happened in Utah, but I didn't take any pictures. Though I might add I am kind of anti-pictures during the great parts of life, because I think they can detract from the fun sometimes. Anyway...other Utah highlights were Freshman Year Reunion at the Cougareat (I love it!), Dinner with Corey & The Waites from Austin, seeing all of my bffs and their husbands/kids (and realizing all of my friends are married...), going to Gillian's first grade class, etc, etc, etc, etc. I miss Utah.

Then I drove up to Idaho Falls to see James (who I hadn't seen for 5 days since he left DC...guess I should blog about that too?).

I got to see Harris play football (who knew 6 year olds played football?), Jack play soccer, and James coach soccer!


Will already loved the Droid, and was happy when I showed him that it can take pictures! He showed me how to pose and then laughed a lot as he took some shots.




Will handed the camera over for me to try.


How I love them!


Notably lacking pictures of beloved Emily and Anna, the smiliest baby I've ever seen in my life!

I was super sad to leave Idaho Falls...mostly because I missed my family, but also because I had to take a red-eye flight and go straight to work (three hours late). But I did and it worked out great, except for I woke up sick Tuesday morning. Lame!
