Julie's Life With Boys

San Antonio

Well, at the end of Grandma and Grandpa Black's visit, Josh lost his job in San Antonio.  They were just packing up to leave to the airport when Josh came back home from work with the news. Luckily Josh was already planning to switch careers and leave STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING behind.  So in a matter of three weeks we sold everything superfluous and moved to UTAH! One more visit to my mom's grave site.  They still didn't have the marker up. I asked how Josh was feeling about everything...this is the face he gave me. This is a small list of things we were trying to give away or sell My friend Sarah Christensen and I painted the trim on the day we were supposed to be LEAVING because of how much it was going to cost us to have the rental management company do it. In the left corner of the picture, you can see just a small amount of the HUGE amount of garbage we were getting rid of. Too bad I didn't take a cleaned up...

In San Antonio, they have an annual Fiesta celebration.  It is a week long event that culminates with the Battle of the Flowers Parade and crowning of Miss Fiesta.  You have to purchase tickets to the parade, and it is hard to get a seat.  The kids get the day off from school.  It is a fun tradition.   We have never gone the the parade, but at school the kids make "floats" and have a hallway parade. This is Taylor's. He laid out this arrangement for the picture.
