Zoo Blog!

This week we ventured to Omaha to visit the good ole' Henry Doorly Zoo with Dayne, Brooke, and the kids.  It was awesome!  Jocelyn and Brooke loved the gorilla exhibit (we may or may not have spent over an hour looking at the baby gorilla).  Joe on the other hand loved the monkey exhibit.  He was very amused with the fact that monkeys look like "little hairy men that are inappropriately dressed."

These were the words of advice my loving wife gave to me as I left for the first day of law school. She is such a great support system! After studying for the LSAT, applying to schools all across the nation, and a cross country move I am proud to announce that law school has finally begun. I can honestly say that I am still not sure exactly what I am in for, but Jocelyn and I are having fun trying to figure it out together. There is so much information that you have to take in at once, I don't even know what I have really learned yet. Here are some things I have organized in an outline that explain what I know I have learned:

1. You have to read a lot in law school.
2. You have to study a lot in law school.
3. You have to make a lot of outlines in law school.

Sigety's Extreme Home Makeover

The house is all put together, and we are happy to have it done. We were planning on painting our living room and our bedroom, but those plans were scrapped for now. With me trying to find a job and Joe starting school in a few days we decided that it will be a project for later. Here are a few pictures of the living room unpacked and decorated.

Sweet Home Nebraska

Normally driving from Salt Lake City to Lincoln takes about 13 hours. Pleasant? Certainly not. But do-able? Of course. However when you throw into the mix an Xterra that may not be rated to pull a BMW 325i piggy-back style on a U-Haul tow dolly, well... things get interesting. We soon found out that we couldn't drive faster than 65, otherwise the trailing German got a little wobbly. The 13 hour drive drew out to about 16 hours in total. Here are a few highlights from the trip.

The Big Move to the Big 10

We know it. You know it. Everyone knows it. We should have created this blog the day after we got married. That's what married couples do nowadays, right? They make blogs and babies. In fact, Blogs and Babies was the runner-up for the title of our blog. We just thought that The Notorious SIG was too clever to let go. We have been married for over a year now and there is a lot to catch you up on. Rather than go into a lengthy rhetoric on what we have been doing for the past year, we thought we would cut directly to a photo montage.
