Hugging Arizona Goodbye



It is really hard to believe we have been here for 6 months, it seems about half that time to us. It has been lots of fun being here and there are many things that we are going to miss! We finally have an official moving date of Feb. 29th. Now for those of you that who aren't good at math-that's this Friday!!!!! I hope I can get ready that soon. We will load up the truck Friday and Saturday, leave Sunday and stay in Albuquerque the first night, then Oklahoma City the second, and finally our new home on day three! So this week we are hugging Arizona goodbye.
I have been working on my red neck talk in preparation for the move and these are the words I have learned:



  • y'all, all y'all- everyone

  • critters- bugs (they have a exterminator called "critter getter's")

Now for the complicated ones:



  • infamy- another person's intent to extract physical punishment. "Ever since I went on that crime spree, the cops have had it infamy."

  • widow- a phrase promising future obligation for more than one person, including the speaker. "I tell you, if you did us this favor, widow you big-time."

  • time- to fasten things together with a knot. "Don't know what the heck's wrong with my shoes, but I can't seem to time."

  • sentimental- to have caused telepathic delivery. "I could pick which card you're thinkin' of, if you sentimental picture to me."

  • ostrich- one engaging in the art of muscle elongation. "I'll be there soon as ostrich my legs."

  • neuter- unfamiliar with. "I'm neuter town, so I get lost a lot."

  • monorail- stating the authenticity of intensity of one's current state. "no way am I folding now, baby, monorail streak."

  • marsupial- a phrase suggesting an expected result of a males ingestion of any additional quantity of a liquid food made with cooked meats or vegetables. "if he eats any marsupial explode."

  • hollandaise- a period of time in which one transported foods. "I had a real sweet eighteen-wheeler back in my hollandaise."





Well hopefully all of my practice and studying has prepared me for Arkansas! Our next blog will feature all the fun adventures of our move, with, of course, lots of pictures. Stay tuned...

That's is so funny! I love your new vocabulary! I really like the picture of you two holding the cactus. Thats the biggest one I have ever seen in my entire life! Good luck moving, and I'll be calling you soon!

Hey Easthams! I found a link to your blog from Ryan and Haley's blog. It's so fun to see your pictures. Where the heck are you moving to now? (you like my use of the word "heck," so you don't forget the Utah slang?! Anyhow, hope you guys are doing well. Our blog is www.dukecrew.blogspot.com.
Take care
Marianne

Where are you now? I hope your move went well and you are not completely lost in Arkansas. Watch out for rednecks and don't eat the deep-fried road kill special.
