Labor Day... or in our case, the not so Labor day

So this weekend is Labor Day weekend....
Sales, picnics, parks, stores, ads... all of that comes to mind in reference to this weekend. (OH and did I mention, fireworks, great music, traffic and Cincinnati??) However this year, in Provo, it's a whole new, slightly less exciting ballgame (minus the being together and married part.. ;) ..) I mean, we're still meeting people in our ward and we're still trying to catch up with the friends we already have here to hang out and get out of the apartment and do something fun OUTSIDE, but it's hard. Especially with school just starting. So we celebrated by being a little lazy. Playing Madden for Chris and reading books for me along with other random things... lol like watching George Lopez on TV. I'm getting to cook a lot and trying out new recipes has proved a good idea.. (gotta love cheap cookbooks from D.I.!!)
I must admit when I think about this weekend I picture WEBN fireworks on the Ohio river in Cincinnati... and all the experiences from many past Labor Day weekends. Also the many picnics that go along with it. It's a little weird to not be either in Cincinnati where I'm completely familiar with most things and people.. or in Rexburg, where I've spent the majority of the last 4+ years of my life. I don't know where the parks are, which are closest, or until this afternoon where a Post Office was. I passed by the Provo Library a while ago with Chris, but haven't been back to get a card because I didn't even have proof of residency yet. (Though I finally got a piece of mail the other day.. woot!!) It's just weird, but I'm getting a little more used to it. :)

Finally did it!

I joined the world of blogging... (partly because of much reminding and hinting and outright demnads from my twin!)
I've got some time and I thought it'd be a good way to use it and keep in touch with people. So I told Sarah I'd get it done this weekend. Hah! I did it the same day!
Life in Provo is getting into a routine. Of course who thought I'd be living in Provo... not me really, but then I guess I'll be here for a few more years ;) We have Car and renter's insurance now! Woot!
For now, I think I'll leave it at this and come back later once I've been a little more productive and fed us.
