What happened to September

It has been so long since I blogged I can hardly remember how.

Dear Family and Friends, I really don't know where September went. I think there was not much going on in our lives other than sitting on the couch watching a little football, and a lot of politics. We will be glad when the elections are over except boredom will really set in.

The most important thing to take place in September was the birth of Charlotte Laurie Lundberg. Better known to all of us as Charley. She was born on the 27th and weighted 9lbs and 7 ounces. I'm sure if you read Brigs blog you will learn more about her. I do know she went to the pumpking patch to celebrate her first week of birth. Kristen seems to be doing fine. Her Mom is back there for two weeks.

Dad and I went to the doctor Friday and he said "yes we have bad backs, yes they will get worse, try these pills and I don't consider you really sick compared to others I see. So I have decided to quit whinning and live with it. We know there are many worse off than we are. He said we should go to Romania. The pills make us sick to our stomachs and don't seem to help much. Getting old is for the birds. We are so grateful to have each other to lean on.

We really enjoyed Conference. I thought the talks were wonderful and the music was
so beautiful. I think we all need to take their advise and watch our spending. Could you believe the temple announcements. Derek and Adrienne went crazy when they said Kansas City area, Lundbergs in Europe were especially thrilled about the Rome Temple for the saints in Romania. Much closer than Germany. I think we were all excited and thrilled about Rome. I'm sure you Argentine missionaries are thrilled to death about the one down there. It is an amazing church isn't it? Cristina was thrilled about the one in Rome also and hopes her mom can go through it before it is dedicated.

Justin has had an interview in San Francisco for Podietry School and was accepted. He is also going to Des Moines Iow this Friday to interview. He thinks cost wise that might be the better one. Way to go Justin. We are all proud of you. Good Luck Friday.

Alex was mad an assistant to the President in Argentina. He will be home on December 20th. He will enter BYU Winter Semester. Andrea , Alex and Jordan are all having great missions. They are not without their challanges, but that is how we grow isn't it.

The Laundry Room is calling my name so I must go. Merrill does appreciate clean clothes. I will try to do better at keeping my blog up. Love to all of you.
