Tridell Utah, Here we come!

Hello to all you Thomas Fans!

And thank you for visiting our blog. Technology is an amazing thing! With this fancy blog, first, we intend to keep in touch with those of you who have touched our lives, and two, to keep you all updated with: THE THOMAS' BIG SUMMER ADVENTURE!! It will be very exciting and we know all of you are thinking, why didn't I think of moving out to the country and get me some land and get to work? Don't worry if you are asking yourself this question, we will do all the work, you can just sit in your comfy computer chair and read and watch as our adventure takes off and it will feel as though you are there yourself.

First, we would like to speed everyone up to date. Listing events in chronological order:

April 27, 2007 Chris graduates from BYU! Way to go Chris!

May 4, 2007 Chris passes the Utah State Clinical Licencing Exam! Double way to go Chris! Also, Chris applies for a Clinical Therapist job with DCFS in Vernal, Utah.

May 24, 2007 We receive an offer on our house in Orem. Yeah!

June 8, 2007 Chris receives a job offer with DCFS in Vernal.

June 9, 2007 The buyers of our home contract back out! Huge Bummmer!

June 11, 2007 Chris goes to Tridell to set up a perk test on the land that we would like to buy. The picture above is the 5 arces we want to buy, that is if it passes the perk test. A perk test tells you if you can put a septic tank on the land. The land is beautiful! It has mature trees and a green pasture to move our cow right in.

June 12, 2007 Chris plants a garden in our friend, Julie Elder's garden plot in Tridell. Not as late as the pioneers, we're just thankful we have a garden!!
