Israel and Egypt

We just got back from our family vacation from Israel and Egypt! It was such a great trip thanks to Dad's hard work and planning. Everything was so magnificent. Israel was very religiously intriguing and Egypt was hot! Overall I think everyone is just really happy to be back in the states where the tap water is safe!

Disneyland with STEVEN!

So I have promised to post these pictures for a while and finally ... here they are! These are the pictures of our Disneyland trip with Connor, Katherine, Megan and Steven! We had so much fun. Steven especially liked Space Mountain. Connor got pooped on, which everyone got a big kick out of. It was a really nice day! I wonder if the kids had as much fun as I did! ;)

The Big Move!!

For all of those who didn't know already, the McCombs family is packing up the old house and moving into a bigger one in a week! Everyone is so excited about the move, especially dad because he says he "now owns water." He would of course be referring to our very own new swimming pool!! The new house has a swimming pool and a real backyard with two sideyards even! this house will be a really fun place to come back and visit when we are all grown up and have our own kiddies! There is so much space. Katherine and Connor have both picked out their rooms already. There is a library and a window seat, so the English major inside me is practially drooling, there's a pool and built in BBQ area for dad, a huge driveway for Connor and his skating, and a huge kitchen and downstairs master bedroom for mom! Hillary has more to hide now if she doesn't want to be seen as a rich city girl ;) and a separate garage for her little Jeep! There is even a rumored crush living next door for Katherine! It is perfect! Mark your calendars and if you know us and need our new address you had best call soon! New house...HERE WE COME!!

Movie Critique...

Last night the fam went to go see WALL-E and everyone felt differently about it. This is a space where everyone can add their own review of the movie!

Megan says: I thought WALL-E was pretty cute. It was no Finding Nemo or Toy Story, but I thought it was funny and sweet. I especially liked the humor and love story that happen between WALL-E and Eve. Overall I would have to say that I'm not sure it was worth seeing in the theaters but definitely worth seeing!

Dad said: "It was depressing: fat people, computers, and polluted world. All things that are sad and depressing. It was icky."

Countdown to Israel

51 days left until The McCombs Family, Owen and Megan West, and guest Alissa Jane will be departing to Israel and Egypt! Dad has been anticipating this trip to the Holy Land for years and we are finally going! We will walk where Jesus and the Pharoas walked and experience the majesty of the Holy Land- unless we die from excitement and anticipation!!

Spotlight-HALLERY!!

I decided that I wanted to spotlight my sister Hillary this week. I have been so impressed with her and how hard she has been working in school. She is currently going to school at Brigham Young University-Idaho and having a blast! She has only four weeks of school left and finals are comming up! Hillary- We all love you! Good luck with all your endeavors! We can't wait till you come home!! Happy Studying! - Love Meggie

Better Family Picture!

Ok this picture was taken before Megan was married, so unfortunately Owen was not with us. But this is a pretty good picture of our family in front of Waterford Castle on Waterford Island in Ireland. Beautiful setting! It was a birthday present to Mom! Happy birthday!
