MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Written on 1:06 PM by Jim Harmer
It's been a great week. We went to Boise this week and visited my family and then we went to Blackfoot to Emily's grandpa's funeral.
Boise was really fun. We enjoyed relaxing, doing the puzzle, XBOX night at Sam's, and everything else.
While we were in Boise I hunted and hunted and finally found the camera I've been wanting at the right price. The camera was VERY expensive, so I sold one of my old guns, two pairs of skis, etc to afford it. Our house was a major Craigslist liquidation site for a week. I got a professional DSLR camera (Canon Rebel XS), and I LOVE it. I'm excited to get to some picture taking with it. The squirrel picture is one of the first pictures I took with it.
The funeral was really nice. It was obviously a lot of work by everyone in Emily's family, but it turned out very nice.
I got called today to be the Sunday School President in our ward. I think it'll be a great calling for me.
We're sure getting excited for the baby. My good friend Clegg asked me to help him give a name and blessing to his baby today. Emily could hardly keep from snatching the little black baby for herself. She said she thinks that black babies are the cutest and that she wants one. Sorry Em... I don't think you'll get her wish.
Winter

Winter has definitely come to Rexburg. The leaves are almost all gone from the trees and we have to scrape our windows each morning. The picture is looking out from our back porch.
We were really blessed this week. Neither of us are working this semester so that Emily can take it easy with the baby on the way and so that I can focus on the LSAT. It's been great, but we were worried about money for next semester. This week I applied for a position with the safety council at the school as their Advertising Director and I got a call from the Dean the next morning asking me to be the president of the organization (which I hadn't applied for). So, it will give me a full tuition scholarship. We were sure relieved. We really didn't want to take out a student loan.
Emily and I have been looking like crazy for baby stuff. We spent the whole day yesterday shopping around. Emily has entered the highly uncomfortable stage of her pregnancy.
We've been looking at law schools a lot. It's sure a big decision.
Do me a favor?

I have to do a Media Management project for school. We are graded on how many people we can get to watch the video I made. Do me a favor and watch this a couple times?
