The latest Thompson news

So. We are married! It has been a terrific 2 1/2 months so far, and the adventures are just beginning. First, wanted to thank all of you for being so supportive of Chris and I at the wedding festivities. I know they became a touch lenghthy, w/ the double feature (Cassie & Becky), but we had a great time and hope you did too! We really appreciated you being in NY, SD and Sacramento; your love and support means everything to us.

So secondly, and for the latest news, Chris just took a job up in Salt Lake City as of 2 weeks ago so we are moving there in a week. We were just barely getting settled down here in SD so fortunately a lot of our life is still in boxes, to make the move easier :). Although sudden, we are very excited for the move and think it will be a great change and opportunity for us! Wish us luck w/ the moving process, should be exciting....

Here are a few pictures from the wedding if you haven't seen them already.

Love you all. Be in touch. Cass and Chris

MY NEW LIFE--Take a look at my beautiful California home. Letter to follow.

Happy Easter everyone! Thought I'd put a few pics up here since I've never contributed before, so here's two from this weekend. Chris and I flew to UT on Thursday evening to spend Easter w/ his family. It turned out to be a great weekend. Jake, Julie, Chris and I went snowboarding on Friday. Then Jake, Alli and Jul came to Riverton and hung out at the Thompsons on Saturday night and Sunday for Easter dinner (except jake didn't make it that day-we missed you). It was really fun combining my worlds and having my siblings meet chris's family. Of course they were a big hit (thanks for representing the family well you guys). It was great meeting the rest of chris's family as well. His sister Amy was so nice to have us stay at her house even though she has a new baby of only 3 weeks! We missed you beck, mom and dad, but at least 4 of the siblings were able to get together. Hope everyone had a happy and safe holiday. Can't wait to see you this summer. Oh, and Jen, great pics of you playing basketball. Fun to see them. Keep up the good work.

Good times in Houston

Hi everyone. This is Becky and I'm down in Houston visiting Jessica, Eric and the girls. Here is a fun video while eating lunch at the zoo. It was a very fun day :) and the girls are seriously cute.

We've also been having fun playing with bubbles and jump ropes in the yard. Ver

Eric's giving the girls a bath right now and this is what I hear "You don't want to be the stinky kids do you?" Good tactic :)

That's all for now!

BASKETBALL!

Christmas in San Diego

All got in around Christmas Eve. Had a huge breakfast at the hotel, hung around at the hottub and then headed to Cassie's for presents under the tree and Christmas dinner. We tried really hard for a good picture, but it just didn't happen.

The Wild Animal Park was one of the highlights of the trip. We all had a pretty good time. This lion was pretty cool. Nice shot Alli.

Walking around La Jolla Cove before church.

Other than that we just had a lot of unity time. all 7 of us squished in one car for a good part of it. to the movies, out to dinner, lots of breakfast eating and just hanging around. checking the surf and even some surfing. not a bad Christmas at all.

The girls were still in SD for New Years and decided to go to this big party they have there. it was pretty fun. And Cassie's boyfriend Chris who we all liked very much.

Happy 2009 everyone!
