The New TV

Last week we set up the new TV. Mom gets the credit for finding the cool stand that didn't cost a fortune. Notice the ghetto rabbit ear antenna. Credit the ultra sharp picture to the fact that (1) Fox transmits in both analog and digital formats, and (2) our new TV can receive digital. We are watching Channel 31.1 . Mom and Seth are watching the Colorado Rockies get their trash kicked in Game 1 of the World Series. Game two was almost as depressing as the Rockies couldn't seem to get anything going. The bad pitching calls by the ump didn't help. Interestingly, Mom has watched both games until she had to go to work, most of the time on speaker-phone with Staci in Boston, who helps us understand all the subtle nuances of being a Red Sox fan and Fenway Park.

Seth's First Homecoming Dance

Thunderridge High School held their homecoming dance on Saturday, September 29th. Most of Seth's seminary class attended, and since only a few are dating age ie: 16, they all went as a group. They met beforehand at a friend's house (Chris Chambers) for dinner and then had a "fondue" afterwards at the same place. Seth's opinion of the dance itself was so-so; it's hard to get into a dance where almost all of the music is rap. Here are a few pictures of the big night.

Seth in front of the car that (a) he wished we owned (b) he was old enough to drive (thank-you John and Traci!)
