We are in! It has been a CRAZY couple of weeks but we are moved into our new house! We love it and hopefully it will prove to be a great neighborhood. The girls can't wait to meet all their new friends(that's what they told me the other day)! It is still a mess but it will soon feel like home...hopefully...



The girls have been awesome through this whole thing and have moved quite easily into the swing of things. And we couldn't have done it without all our family and friends! You guys are amazing and you are sooooo appreciated!!!!!! We love you all!

The girls are so excited for halloween. Emma is being Jasmine and Maycee is Tinkerbell. And they are the cutest ever if I say so myself. They decorated their "haunted house" this afternoon and had so much fun.




We will invite you all over for a party when the house is all put together so you can see it. We have an awesome patio so it will be party central!

It was my birthday last Monday, and I spent the day cleaning our old house for the landlady. Oh well-It was a good day. They kids were well behaved and I got a lot done that I needed to so even though it wasn't the most exciting day, we had just bought a house 3 days before. I can't complain...

Anyway-I must go back to working...packing and homework and kids and laundry and should I go on, or do you get the picture? I am sure you all know it well...

'till next time

SOOOOOO Busy!

I don't know why I do this to myself but I do it a lot! I get so many things that I try to do all at the same time and I get so stressed out that I can't handle it! But somehow I get through. I can't wait for the day that I have nothing to do... I don't think it will ever come but what's a little wishfull thinking?

So both the girls said they wanted to play soccer this fall instead of dance but they are both better cheerleaders than players so I think we will stick with the dance next year(it is so much more expensive but oh well).


Maycee's attempt at soccer



Go Emma!!!

They are all finished playing for the fall now, and it is a good thing. Brad and I found this house that we really liked in West Bountiful and it was reasonably priced so we went to look at it and decided to make an offer on it, and they accepted it. So we are buying a house! (I am freakin scared out of my mind, but I'll deal!) I just can't think about how much money it is! So anyway, we will close on it next week and next weekend we are moving! I am so excited and the girls are very excited too. It is kind of sad because we have lived here for three years and have just started to make some really good friends but it isn't that far away I guess. My friends in this ward are great, but hopefully there will be great people in our new neighborhood too. The girls are excited because they can now get their kitty or dog. It won't be until the new year because Brad wants to buy a boxer and they are super expensive too. But it will be wonderful to have my own house. I don't have any pics available yet but next weekend I will take tons and post again once we are in the house. It is going to be a wild ride for the next 2 weeks or so. And to add on top of it all, I am right in the middle of the semester. And we decided to do this just as the economy tanked, man it's been a stressful couple of weeks, and it ain't over yet...
