Welcome Soren!

On Monday, Jen was thrilled to be in SLC to welcome our newest little nephew, Soren Moffat!

Soren was born to parents Steve and Liv on October 20, 2008 and weighed in at 9lbs 2oz and is 22 inches long. He's a big guy!

Jen reports that he looks just like his dad (and following that string...just like his grandfather Ray and his auntie Jen).

The new, larger Moffat family went home last night.....and we wish them many naps and lots of luck!

The Pack

I admit it - I like the Green Bay Packers. Now, I like the Seahawks more....but after my very first NFL game, I admit that I was not tragically sad that the Hawks lost. Perhaps the Mariner's season beat winning right out of me....

But I digress.

We did have our very first little NFL game visit and experienced the loud / powerful crowd at Quest Field. After a false start of my own, I even grew to love (well....tolerate) the Packers fans that were just everywhere...and grew louder and louder as their lead grew larger and larger.

But really, the most fun was watching Becca and Clint - fresh from SLC - as they watched the Pack win. Indeed, they were the coolest Packers fans (and the most sober) around. Oh, and they held their own while walking to the car after the game, when I thought we had a legitimate chance of inciting a riot.

- mhs

PS - it is well worth mentioning how much of a talent Clint is.....not only can he watch a very important game (which he was broadcasting from home 1,000 miles away but watching on his computer hooked up to our TV)....he can and did fix every device in our house. Now if only the damn external hard drive / server thingy worked right....

Zion in October...

We did a fly-by Utah visit....not 36 hours long....for Tracy Wrigley's wedding. After a cold and rainy weekend at Indralaya, it was nice that SLC was 75 degrees and beautiful! It was lovely to hatch fun weekend plans with Becca and Clint (how often can we say that??! We are so excited they're coming to visit...), see Steve and Liv's newly-finished baby nursery, and visit with some of the folks (sorry Mom!!).

Enjoy a few pix!
