The car we owned for almost a month

Yep. Semi turned in front of me on the road this morning. Here’s the picture I sent in to work, telling them “I’m not coming in today.”

We only owned the car for a few weeks. Yeah, not fun. But I’m safe and healthy, so I guess that’s a good thing.

James’ Big Adventure

I could write some really detailed description of how today played out for James, but thanks to Johanna’s Facebook play-by-play and the magic of screen-capture, I’ll just re-post what she did:

As a side-note, her sister actually found the key after all.

Now that the move is done…

We have been without the internet for a good long time, and as such have not been able to update the blog with much. Now that we are moved in and have a computer set back up with a card reader, it’s time to upload some photos! For the curious, here is a panoramic view of our front yard.

Not bad for a guy without a tripod and minimal Photoshop skillz, if I do say so myself.

As we get more things unpacked and in place, I will post more of the photos up here for all to enjoy.

Website Upgrade

WordPress 3.0 – at work, we are excited to see if it will prove to be of use on any future projects. But I couldn’t wait to try out some of the new features, so I upgraded dodgefam.com to the latest and greatest. There might be some broken links and such from the upgrade, but those will get resolved with time.

Though…there hasn’t been much activity as of late, so I doubt anyone will lose sleep over it. But within the next couple of weeks, there will probably be a TON of new stuff as we move into our new house!

New Home Update

Another week has passed, and today we took a drive out to see the progress on the new house. As these pictures plainly show, things are coming along nicely. We have a foundation, and the lumber is on site so that our next update will likely contain some semblance of flooring…maybe even walls!
