Our Family

So it started with John and Carolyn, then they added Michele, David, Richard, Andrew and Diana. They in turn added Stewart, Karen, Amy and Meredith. Now there are 14 grandchildren. It may get slightly crazy when we are all together, but that is half the fun. Never a dull moment with the DeLaMare clan. There's always laughter though, and lots of teasing, but under it all we are one big happy family!

Moving - Take 8 (I think)

I think this will be my 8th move since I have come home from my mission. And I'm not counting all the times I moved back to mom and dad's during the summer. So here I go again. My roommate Tracy moved into her apartment last Saturday. So my living room is empty except for a couple of chairs, my TV and an exercise ball. Yes I am living the good life. I also have pile of stuff that I'm going through spread out all over. I have saved the craziest things. I found a bowling score card that I had saved because it was proof that I actually scored an 148. I can remember that I was so proud of myself. I even did it without the bumper lanes down. I'm usually happy if I broke a hundred. So silly and yet I'm going to continue to save it. Moving is always this weird point in life. Because there's this part where I'm very excited to move on to something different and yet sad all at the same time. I only have 2 1/2 weeks left. Very weird place in life.

I have to share this conversation that I had with Parker the other day because he just made me laugh. It went something like this.

Parker: Hi, Diana. When are you coming to my house?
Me: In a couple of weeks.
Parker: Good, because I want to shoot you.
Me: Um, you want to what?
Parker: Shoot you. I got a new nerf gun and they shoot really fast. So I'm going to shoot you.
Me: Oh, OK. What if I shoot you first?
Parker: Well then I will hide and get you first.
Me: Good thing I'm a good finder then.
Parker: Oh I'm a very good hider. But I will give you a hint. I will be in my room. (Pause)OK bye Diana.

That is too FUNNY!! I missed that conversation! but that sounds like Parker, oh and you can thank your Parents for that nerf gun. They can probably tell you where to get a counter weapon!
