November 15 and then some....

Hard to believe it has been 3.5 months since we left Alaska/California. The time has flown by and things have changed.

Tammy is now only 3.5 weeks(something about 3.5, huh) away from delivery of Kaci Lee and we are all excited. Her new room, ur corner, is almost done. Yes, our new little girl will not have her own room, instead she will have her own corner of our room. You see our little 2 bedroom, plus Kirkland's closed in porch that makes 3 bedrooms, is way too small now. Our house is up for sale, any takers(124 Poinsett Ave, 29671) just email or comment on the blog.

The time has changed here in SC and so darkness is upon us as soon as 5pm now. I can only imagine how our friends up in Alaska feel with darkness closing in on them virtually all day. I get depressed when the time changes here and it gets dark so early, no way I could live up there in the winter. All though a few days in the snow would be fun!

Yes, we did see Sarah Palin while in Alaska, although I must admit she was known as only the Governor of Alaska on July 4 when we heard her speak in Fairbanks. Too bad we did not know what the future would hold or otherwise I would have listened and not strolled around the park to find the worse tasting Caribou sandwich I have ever eaten.

I miss a'lot of Alaska and our family talks about our adventure often. We also miss the Becks and the times we shared with them.

I keep up with a'lot of the players, staff and families through Facebook and have enjoyed continuing the friendships that were created in what seems like a land so far away.

Well, enough for now...plus, I don't think anyone will actually read this since I stopped blogging back in August. I caught the "bug" to blog one more time when Travis sent me his uncompleted blog of his trip to visit with us.

Oh well, should you read this check back soon for some photos and videos that I will add later.

You will have three kids soon...all with first names starting with K's. They will be like the Griffin's that used to live near Sandra.

5 thoughts on "Kaci Lee" ...

1) Ah, brother J, good memory of the Griffins, a.k.a., the "B.G."s. And thinking of the "Bee Gees" era, "Kaci" fits right in with that guy with the "Sunshine Band".

2) I'll have to change my emails soon too, as I often refer to Kirkland & Kaylee collectively as "K&K". It may raise a few red flags in government email filters if I start abbreviating them as "KKK"!

3) Flash forward 5 years ... Thanksgiving with all the extended family ... grandparents and great aunts/uncles trying to get one of the kid's attention:
"C'mere Kir-, Klay-, I mean Kayl-, Kaci!!" (and if they're lucky, no pets' names will be in the mix.)

4) What's up with a baseball coach picking "Kaci" for a name? Is anyone else thinking back to elementary school ... famous poem ... baseball?

5) I guess Alaska's "Kenai" is still in reserve if a boy comes along.
