In the beginning…
This is the beginning of the PackerWorld website. Since we’ve started the Christmas season, I thought I’d start with a little Christmas theme, hope you like it. The picture above is a little dated, it’s of last Easter, but it’s the only one I could find that had all of us in it, without digging through the archives.
To start things off, Maddie is definitely a 2-year-old, and causing a ton of mischief. Her favorite thing to do is to climb up on the bathroom counter, and get into whatever she can find. She is talking up a storm, and she’s actually making semi-coherent sentences. For the most part, she can get her point accross, except for when she’s scream-talking, which really garbles up the message. But we lover her anyway.
Dixie is pregnant with number two, and is due in June. We’ll make sure to let you all know when we find out if it’s a boy or a girl. She just got released from being the primary pianist and enrichment committee member, and got called as the second counselor in the primary presidency. I’m sure that will keep her plenty busy, and help her keep her mind off the pregnancy.
Anyway, I’m really excited to finally get the website up and going. I just finished school and got my bachelors in Telecommunications, so I have a little bit of extra time to work on it. I usually hate winter, but I’ve spent this whole last summer putting in a new lawn and a sprinkler system, so I’m actually relieved that winter is here for once. I think this summer was the longest summer of my life. I’m currently working the night shift at Hill Air Force Base monitoring computer systems. So if you’re ever up in the middle of the night, and you’re bored, send me an email, and we’ll chat!
We’re assuming that most of you visiting this site are family members, or close friends and relatives, so you all probably know pretty much all there is to know About Us. But, should the odd strager wander into the site, or you just want to find out more About Us, be sure to check out the About Us page to learn all the nitty gritty details.
I’ve set up a Public blog, so that any of you that want can get in there and blog away about yourself or your family. If you’re interested in posting in the Public blog, send me an email, and I’ll set you up and tell you how to do it. Should be lots of fun. Also, if you ever have pictures you want to send us to put in the Photos page, send those to me as well, and we’ll put them up for the world to see!
Well, we hope you enjoy the site. We’ll try to keep regular updates and pictures coming so you always have something fun to read. I hope to be able to find the time to keep adding fun little things to the site as well. So check back often, and happy holidays!
