October 2005

Life's been steadily busy since our last update. We're still trying to pinpoint a lot for our future move to Colorado. We're quite excited about it all.

On September 30th Ehren had a once in a lifetime chance to "ride" with Lance Armstrong. He was picked in a lottery at work to be one of 20 people from Qualcomm to ride a few miles with Lance in the Tour of Hope. He chased Lance's group for about 13 miles. There's pictures for that on the Tour of Hope link.

We were in Canada the last couple weeks for a family wedding. Ehren had a cousin that got married so we planned the trip around that. It's also the first time we've been back for Canadian Thanksgiving in 8 years! We had a nice time visiting family. We stayed with Janelle's family but we also saw all of Ehren's family since the wedding was in Calgary...very convenient for us! Blair & Darlene are building a new house and it wasn't quite "liveable" yet when we got there. They had some close friends that were gone for a week and they let us use their house which was a real help. After about a week we were able to move into the new house and help unpack! Busy times! The girls weren't sure which was Nana and Papa's house for a while there! :-) Deana, Jay and Butters made a surprise trip up and Porky & Ann also payed a visit as well as Cousin Tauna & Jalena. It was a nice time and we didn't even see any of the white stuff while we were there. We had some frost but no snow except in the mountains.
