Happy Mother's Day to all of us Quigley family Mother's!! Thank you for all of your great examples. We love you all.

DEEEP EN DA HAW-RT OF TEXASS...

It was our good fortune to enjoy a brief visit on Thursday afternoon from Bep 'n Bob, Clairezee & Lilly on their way through to El Paso. Was so fun and special to us to give hugs all around. I was especially impressed with the marvelous packing and rigging job applied to get ten pounds of crap (lots of stuff) in a five pound bag (small Impala).

Other than looking like moonshine runners, complete with overloaded springs that bottomed out on each bump., the genius of Quigley packing genes was in full display. Great job with the top pack attachment and bike rack. Way nifty!

We were thrilled to get the "we're here" ping notifying us of the safe arrival. Reports are that Texas is beautiful and the apartment complex is really nice. We're so happy for you kids and hope it is a terrific summer for you all! luv...pops

A note from (me)

Eve 10 months and counting

I've been spending so much time looking at this blog, I figure I ought to put something on it that you can see. I finally have the site in a quasi-finalized state. Please let me know if you have any requests, questions or complaints.

Things are crazy busy in our house as we count down to graduation day. Only two more weeks! It's a really exciting (yet very stressful) time. We definitely wish we could be in Utah for Oakley's baptism. Talk about an exciting time!! We're so proud of you Oak!!! Travel safe, all who are going!

Speaking of travel...I'm in complete denial that Morgan and Bethany are gone. So lame. We're going to miss them like crazy!! It just makes me all the more excited for August and reunion time. WOO WOO.

PS- Those of you that use google reader or the like, have you noticed you feed url in your profile? So nice! Also, for those of you that use photobucket, size your pictures to 450 pixels. I'm going to try to make the body wider, but it might not be for a while.
