Details on our new little addition

We know you guys must have lots of questions--delivery date, names, how I'm feeling, etc. so I'll attempt to answer them for you. The delivery date ended up being a lot sooner than we expected. As for names we've settled on Samsung. Most importantly, we are both feeling great and are delighted with the new arrival. That's right, today our new television arrived. Jerel is going through a period of mourning. He and the old tv were together for a long time--more than 14 years--in fact the two of them got together around the same time I was going to my first church dance. But the breakup was inevitable . . .

I hate working full time so I told Jerel I thought we should buy a new TV as a reward sort of. So I could come home after a long day and have something to show for my work I guess. Jerel, of course, is much more practical. We were in Best Buy looking at all these fabulous tv's and he says "Maybe we shouldn't get a tv. Maybe we should put the money towards food storage instead." I told him that would be fine but that if we did that I would quit my job immediately. So we got the tv. It seems enormous to me! It's a 46" LCD and everything looks so BIG! We found out we don't have an HD cable box so we aren't enjoying the full benefits yet, but it is amazing already.

I hope this answers all your questions!

OK. Let me see if I can do this. Asher, Mason, Cooper, Elise, Samsung, Eve, Monroe, Clara.

Yay, I still say name tags.

samsung sounds nice not cheezy like vizio but noy so elitist like sony. Congrats on the baby and the tv. HD tuner is worth the money. Mandy you may even start liking sports. I didn't watch that much until we got high def. By the way if Jerel wants to come watch football while he's here I can just leave the door unlocked.
