Our New Niece Eden Muir

Our new niece is 6 lbs. 1 oz. and 18-1/2 inches long.  She was born by cesarian section at 1:30pm on Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008 two days early.  Mom (Gwen) didn't quite make it here to Rexburg in time, though she arrives tomorrow.  Eden has plenty of dark semi-curly hair with a cute little mohawk.   Hayley is doing well minus Asia dancing on her tender stomach.  Asia almost didn't even recognize her mom when grandpa and grandma brought her to the hospital.



  


This is our new little niece, Eden Muir

Labor Day Weekend

Joel and I wanted to drive to Salt Lake City on Friday, but we didn't really plan too much. It was late, weather was unpredictable, and we were just plain lazy. So, we stayed in much of the time and watched the U.S. Open tennis matches. Joel has especially been interested in tennis lately, along with road cycling. We watched a wonderful match between Roddick and Gobis. Roddick, the American, won! We also watched Federer beat his opponent, Querrie. We were so inspired by the tennis on tv that we went and bought raquetball rackets, to play at the BYU-I recreation center, because the weather has surprisingly been too cold for outdoors. (I think this is the beginning of Fall/Winter. Argh!) The rec center was closed, so we ended up playing tennis anyway, since it was right across the street. We had a good time together, and the weather turned out to be quite cool, but good. It was a much needed turn around from the last time we played tennis together. It was too hot, so I was lathargic and cranky. Joel didn't have very much fun because I was not having very much fun. Thankfully, we did much better this time around. Well, back to work at Nielson Bodily & Associates!
