Want to save some money???

Lately, I have been looking for more affordable car insurance. It seems that our insurance company keeps raising our rates and we don't have anything on our records! My friend's husband is with Primerica. So I called the Primerica number and they hunted down the best rates with various different companies. I couldn't believe how much less it was going to be compared to what we were paying. In all, it will save us almost $1000/year!!! Plus, we have more coverage and lower deductibles. If any of you want to check this out, go to PrimericaSecure.com or call 1-877-855-8111. Make sure you use PIN: PKHK3 and the representative name: Mosley.

A Death in the Family

It grieves our hearts to inform you of a tragic death in the Las Vegas Swensen family. Nemo Swensen passed away tonight sometime between 5:00 pm and 8:30 pm. The cause of his death in uncertain, but we are assuming natural causes. He was loved by all who knew him, and touched their lives in a way only Nemo could. Survivors include Abram, April, Mackenzie, Brooklyn, and Fish Swensen. Unfortunately, Baby Swensen did not have the opportunity to know him, but there is the possiblity that she may inherit his name in memorium.

Mackenzie for obvious reasons has taken Nemo's death pretty hard. We thought it best to let her know tonight as opposed to having her see his corpse in the morning or see one fish instead of two in the tank during her morning feeding. She has shed many tears for her friend. Please feel free to send your condolences, no flowers necessary. We are starting a trust fund in Nemo's name. If you are interested in donating, please talk to April for details.

The Name Game

Okay, so we have about 3 months left until baby girl #3 is born. Most people know the name that I really like (Savannah), but we haven't shared the name Abe likes with very many. So let's play a name game. I'll give you a few hints, and you can try to guess the name. If you already know the name then please do not play. Good luck and have fun trying to figure it out!
Hint #1. The first letter of both the first name and middle name is the same.
Hint #2. There are a total of 11 letters in the first and middle names combined.
Hint #3. 7 of the 11 letters are vowels.

Our new addition

We are pleased to announce the newest members of our growing family. Mackenzie and her dad went to the pet shop today and brought home 2 bundles of joy: goldfish that is. According to Macky, who happens to be an expert at 'fish genealogy,' they are brother and sister. Mackenzie has named hers "Nemo" and we are waiting for Brooklyn to wake up from her nap to name the other one. I'm sure it will be something like
"ish" or "ishy."

Asleep at last

Mackenzie and Brooklyn are now sharing a bedroom. Macky sleeps on the daybed and Brooklyn sleeps on the trundle bed. Everynight, we can hear them giggling and climbing around for a good half hour or so before they finally wipe out.
This is how Brooklyn fell asleep last night.
