Christmas is coming up, and the boys are really excited about it. B has asked me at least 3 times in the past 10 minutes for a present. He can't wait to get to Grandma Owens's house. He looks forward to the snow, the grandma, and Christmas.
I've been listening to the "Mormon Tabernacle Choir (Holiday)" and "Children's Holiday" stations on Pandora.com. I highly recommend it.
Tips for the day: In your Gmail account, check the very top, where there are the links to various parts of Google. Click the"More" link. In that menu, click the "even more" link. Find "Google Music". Download the program, then choose to synchronize to iTunes. It will upload your songs to google, with a limit of 20,000 songs (good luck on reaching it). You can then play those songs from anywhere that you can access the web!
(If you don't use iTunes, you can synchronize a folder on your computer instead.)
I'd make a bookmark to Google Music, or (if you have chrome) install the "app" from the chrome web store (free). All it does is add a Google Music link to your new tabs in chrome.

Are you getting excited for Christmas? I am! AND IT'S ONLY DEC 1!!!!
Sarah and I will be visiting her family in Idaho this Christmas. The adventure will begin with a 24 hour drive, which we hope to complete in two days, leaving only one night of sleeping outside of a familiar home.
Sarah isn't leaving things to chance regarding our boy's on this long trip. She's preparing a variety of fun things for them to do, so they won't get too bothered by the fact that they're prisoners for 24 road hours. The coolest (possibly) is a series of small, cheap/homemade presents that they'll get to open periodically as we drive. Even I'm excited to see what they all are, and I don't think I even get any. A man can hope, right? I imagine that they're all toys and distractions.
B wants you all to know, "We're doing everything. I, X, and O."
His name is being withheld for safety reasons. :)

Outside, the cold air nips at my flesh. If I were to close my eyes, I could easily envision snow on the ground. Still, as I sit to relax, I am wearing shorts, and I don't know why. And I won't spend much time thinking it over, nor will I bother changing.
Recently, I organized my Gmail and Facebook accounts to make them easily usable. I've never been active on Facebook, so I'm planning to re-engage myself in the electronic era of faceless interactions. Naturally, I became intrigued with the idea of blogging, but have nothing in particular to blog about. No single concept seems appropriate as the subject of this blog. So, I'll just blog about my life and activities, of which there is no shortage of interesting things to say.
