It's been too long

Sorry about not posting sooner. I have been working alot and huntin' as well.

First things first, our travel date has been gloriously moved up to December 14, tentatively. We will be arriving back in Little Rock somewhere between December 28-30 at exactly 4:37 pm. Originally, we were supposed to go at the end of December. This late date meant that our I-171H form would expire while we were there. So, after much gritting of teeth, we decided to drop the bucks and reapply to make sure that it would be up to date. This is like washing your truck during a long drought. It rains the next day. If we hadn't applied, we would have had a late trip. But, since we applied, the travel dates were pushed up, the application was a moot point, and you can thank us (and the Wagners too I believe) for doing this. Murphy's law at its finest.

Second, Yazi's biographical info was graciously translated by a Chinese family here in town. It is as we had expected. She is an extroverted, people person who works to benefit herself. Apparently, she throws down her milk, and then proceeds to roll over until she gets to her cribmate and throws down her milk. So, if anybody's youngin looks a little peakish, it may be due to my chubby cheeked little rascal. Her name is fitting as well. She is named after a native bird common to the area. The name has the idea of flying freely. A free spirit. A ring-tail tooter if you're from the south. She's gonna fit in nicely with our family.

Finally, Woo Pig Sooey. We're heading to Atlanta for the SEC Championship. After having Gator tail for dinner, we'll head to New Orleans where we'll have Sugar for dessert. Go Hogs.

You'll be home in time to sleep a bit and watch those Hogs on New Year's Day! I'm off to KC this weekend to see Dan plus go watch our Sooners in the Big 12 Championship. Hopefully the snow is through by Friday, and I can get there uneventfully. See you in NJ in 2 weeks! Neila
