Update
I'll keep this brief as I know it is boring to read blogs that are all talk and no pics. Sorry 'bout that. The geek squad successfully recovered my photos from my hardrive, although the computer is totally kaput. I paid 160 just to get my pics back and another 100 for the external hard drive to have them stored on. I could pay another 300 for a new harddrive and then pay for all my software a-la-carte, however, when you add all that up, it just about amounts to the price of a new computer anyway. So Jonathan and I are in the market for one. We're conducting some research and will be purchasing one in the next month or so. I plan to be up and running again, with a backlog of updates, around the 1st of 2009. Wish the news were better than that...but I am eternally grateful I have my pics! Best wishes to you all for a very safe, happy, and gratitude filled Christmas and holiday season.

I love you Mandy! Glad you got your pictures! Miss you!!!
Glad to know you are still alive I haven't seen a post in a while. I've been getting my coupons online as well as in the newspaper. There are pros and cons about each. Online a lot of places limit it to 2 coupons per computer (I have 2 computers so it's fine)Of course the news paper limits you to one unless you buy more news papers. I am still trying to get good at it. There are times I save a ton and times I don't. the longer you do it the better you get and the more coupons you have saved up so you can use it when there is a sale to get an even better price. As for the websites I use they are mostly Utah stuff. You could check out couponsense.com it's a website you subscribe to for $15 a month. The first month I believe is $4.00. I am not sure if it works in your area or not it would tell you. It's nice because you can search for what you want and then it tells you what coupons to use and where it's on sale etc. Also, as you learn more about using coupons you will learn more about store policies etc. Some places will let you use other stores coupons. That's nice so you can just go one place. I've gone back and forth going to one place and many. So far even though I have gone to multiple places I've really gotten the best deals so its worth a little extra time and gas. Our stores are really close together and I usually try and hit them on the way home so I am not going all over the place. Also, there are stores that give rewards and so you save even more. It will really depend what is close to you. Also, if there is a walmart near you they price match other peoples adds but wont take other peoples coupons just manufacture so that may be the place to try. If you want to call me I'd be more than happy to go over stuff. If you have verizon my cell is 253-549-6467 or my house is 801-623-4892. I know it takes a little extra time but it's almost like a game for me now to see how much I can save so it's fun. I get better and faster all the time. PS. Sorry for the long post :)
I think you might be due for an update :) I am still going back and forth between the odyssey and the sienna. Can't decide. Which model of the odyssey do you have? How do you like it? As for the next kid I don't know. We will probably start trying in the next few months. I don't want to have a kid at Christmas again so It will probably be end of April or after. As much as I don't want to be prego during the summer I think waiting until August is too long for me. As for Joel and Monica I try not to ask but rumor has it they are going to start trying sometime soon but since I don't ask I really don't know what that means. :)
ok so did you have your baby? If so I can't believe there is no update. Seriously it's been 3 months I'm dying for an update!
MAndy, I heard a rumor you were back up on your blog. Maybe you posted pics to your facebook. I'll check there. I miss your blog girl!
