Oh, Idaho

What happens in Idaho when you:

Get a drink of water in the morning
Go to church
Go to the in-laws for dinner
Stay a little bit longer than you should
Go home



You get frozen kitchen pipes!
Don't worry, ours didn't look like that, but they were frozen.

Frozen pipes lead to no water, which also leads to this:

Don't you worry, that's not our sink and we didn't have that many dishes

We called the landlord and she said to put some space heaters on the pipes to get them to thaw out.

So we did. The water came back a little, but still not enough to dishes. I was actually a little relieved I could get out of dish duty for a little while

The water came and went for a few days and then our trusty handman Brett decided he wanted to take a look at it. Here's Brett, and yes girls, he's single :)

According to Brett, car mechanics and plumbers are one in the same. Boy was he right. He fixed our pipes! Well, actually it was a combination of the pipes and also the faucet itself.

I never thought I'd be so excited to do dishes in my life.

Dogs for sale




Is anyone interested in a couple of dogs? They're very cute (except for when they poo on the floor), enjoy hanging out with each other (except for when Milton chases Chloe around the apartment with socks in her face) and are very well behaved (except for when they tear up your bathroom while you're gone and chew up every single one of your makeup brushes).

I swear they're great dogs and will love you forever!

I promise I love my dogs. They just drove me insane when we came home yesterday and found everything on the bathroom counter on the floor instead all chewed up

The final stretch

Let me just start out by saying that I'm getting my Christmas cards ready so if you'd like one, email me your address at sarahegeddes@gmail.com

Now you can stop reading if you want :)

We've reached the final stretch! One more week! But this last week has about 7 tests for me :( Jonathan's semester is wrapping up at about the same pace that the rest of the semester went. My teachers decided to lay it on thick. I had two group projects due last Friday with a paper as well. Now I have 7 tests. Oh well, it'll all be over soon.

Thanksgiving was great. We went down to Utah to see my mom, brother and sister-in-law. Of course we got to see the rest of the step family too which was fun. We exchanged Christmas presents with Daniel and Sarah which was awesome. We wish we could see them a lot more.

I'm so excited to have most of our Christmas shopping done! If we don't have it yet, we at least know what we're getting. Then comes wrapping! I just love everything about giving Christmas presents. Thinking of what they'd like, going out to find it, and coming home and wrapping it up. J and I need to go get a Christmas tree so I can start wrapping his presents and sticking them under them.

I just love Christmas!
