Day 207: This morning Miss Susanna Elizabeth Engebretson was born to Rachel and Adam. 8lbs and 21 inches long, she is absolutely beautiful. Aside from the tears that continue to fall every time I think about it, I also have been enjoying some walks down memory lane as
I think of my growing up years with Rachie. She was there the day I was born, so missing her day today was pretty tough, but I’ll always be there for her! Love you guys!
Day 206: Yay!! Finally flying the flag proudly outside our home!
Day 205: I woke up this morning to a gorgeous morning and nothing to do. It was too
early to go to the pool, so I figured workin out was an admirable alternative. I woke up some roomies to come along and we headed down to the Jefferson. We tossed in “Rediscovering God in America” (Newt Gingrich book on monuments) and were off. It didn’t take long to realize we would have to stop at the monuments Amanda hadn’t seen (all of them) and for the next 3 hou
rs we ran/rollerbladed from monument to monument, stopping at each one to read some words of wisdom. Haha, it was a pretty great morning!!
Day 204: First roommate picture! Heading off to Murphy’s for a fun night of singin’ oldies!
Day 203: I thought that by working at home and going to the DMV at 11, I MIGHT miss the crowds and crabb
y employees that normally taint the possibility of making your experience quick and friendly. I was wrong. After spending 15 minutes driving through the parking lot, I went inside. There, I waited 25 minutes to take the ticket to then join the 150 people already sitting in the waiting area. Unfortunately, I didn’t make it this far. Despite the fact that I may have been 1 of 15 Americans in the r
oom, my social security card did not prove this and I was sent home. The bright side is that I am officially Minnesotan for a little longer.
Day 202: Well, we’ll pretend the Camero is mine…haha, but 50% of the cars in our household were here this morning. One of the ways Virginia likes to jip it’s residents is bymaking us have our cars inspected once a year for the emission and once every 2 years for safety…In order to get license plates, etc., this must be done, paid for, and your
car fit for the environment.
Day 201: Lauren was feeling rather green today…vacuuming the sidewalk ;)
Day 200: I don’t enjoy seeing this on my screen. Thankfully, it was a false alarm and somehow it pulled through after a couple of rocky days.
