Our New Home

Our huge walk in closet, Scott is very excited for this because now I have a big enough closet for all of my clothes.

Our dinning room.

Well it was definitely an interesting first night. We ended our evening with a strange man frantically trying to open our door. He had gotten locked in the yard of the storage facility and couldn't get out. We figured it out in the end but it was a little startling for a first night. Other than that it was pretty good, and it turns out that I know exactly where I am. After doing some investigating it turns out that we are just down the road from my dads work and I used to work for my dad so I at least know where all the restaurants are. And I am sorry, I forgot to get pictures of our other apartment, lets just say that our old apartment could fit in our living room and dining room.

Yay! but kinda nervous

We are moving today! I am excited but I am nervous all at the same time. We have no money and we don't know the area where we are moving to but it is a much nicer apartment. It may be a little while before I am able to post pictures of our new place, we still have to figure out how to get Internet and TV, but I promise I will. I will even post pictures of the apartment we are in now so you can see the difference. Any way, just wanted you to know. I must go now and help with the moving.

Christmas, Oh Christmas

We have had a fun holiday season, but boy am I tired. The last few weeks have been full of; shopping, cleaning, wrapping, crafting, and cooking. I am more than excited for the new year and the new adventure ahead of us. It has been very nice to have a holiday season filled with my family, and friends. It was nice to have a Christmas where we could focus on Christ and the blessing we have had this year. Even though we didn't have much and it felt like December only took 2 weeks to pass by, I think I will always remember this Christmas as one of my favorites. I sit now surrounded by my family, everyone being as loud as can be, and feel so blessed to have them as my own. To everyone I wish a Merry Christmas and many hopes for the new year. And now what you have all been waiting for, pictures of Sadie! Yay!

Sadie loves the rocking horse that Aunt Jessica got for her.

I spent a lot of time making Sadie a new blanket for her new big girl bed.

I made her a few pillows too.

I think that Sadie needs a hair cut.

News!!!!!

Great and exciting news!

We have been given a job. We get to live in a nice big apartment rent and utility free, and we get to work together. Yay! My dad is so wonderful to offer this job to us. We are finally going to be managing my dads storage facility. We are so excited and thankful for the chance to actually have some money and something to do after months of no work. We will be moving again within the next week or so, but it isn't too far from where we live now. My parents are a little sad to not have us at their house all the time, but I keep reminding them that it is not that far compared to Idaho. We are excited for Christmas though we haven't done any decorating yet. I know, we are a little behind. Lately Sadie has been growing and learning so fast. She is definitely not my little baby anymore. Yesterday, while we were getting ready to leave for the day, Sadie found a set of our keys and was trying to unlock the door. She took one key and put it up to the door knob, when it didn't work she dropped her hand look through the keys, then picked a different key and tried to unlock the door again. It was so funny, and it definitely shows that she is watching us even when we think she isn't. Her new words are; kitty, dog, num num (yummy), mouth, mom mom (grandma), bye bye. I'm sure there are a few more that I can't think of at the moment. Any way that is what's going on with us at the moment. Once we get settled in our new place I might have more interesting things to post. Now I must go and play with my very emotional teenage toddler.

Snow?!!!

So lately I have been getting a little nostalgic about having a white Christmas, and well after this morning I may just get it, at least a little. It was so fun to wake up to a few inches of snow, ad a little weird. The last time it snowed here was 2002, and before that 1998, ad before that 1985, ad before that 1942. This was the most snow I have see here ever. We took advantage of the nice day and played pretty hard. Sadie wasn't quite sure how she felt about it, though she did like the giant gloves I put on her. As for life in general we are doing pretty good. We have a few prospects for work that we are trying to decide between, which is great compared to where we were. As for the last picture I must warn you it is not pretty. Scott had a motorcycle accident about a week ago and it is a picture of his battle wound. And yes I asked him if I could post it. It was a scary time for me because he couldn't walk, and he is still having problems but he is doing much better.
