Well, we moved. I've been able to unpack quite a bit but still have a ways to go....we still have one of the cats. GASP! Jerry has stayed with us and moved to our new house with us. For some reason, he loves me. I don't get it. I bathe him, clip his nails and won't let him on the beds. You'd think he hates me. I even shut him in the fridge door last night (on accident) and he still loves me. Go figure.
We are really liking our new house in Plain City. The kids love that we are closer. Lilly and Laura really love having their own bedrooms. I love that there is now less driving but I miss living close to friends and family. Brandon and I won't be working in the Bountiful Temple for the next couple of months. We are both sad, as we loved working there. Brandon has clinicals every Saturday out in Salt Lake for about six more weeks and where we have gone down to one car for the time being, it doesn't work for me to be able to keep volunteering there. Many have wondered if we will be able to still do our mission. The Jones's went to bat for us, our Stake President doesn't want us to stop....so we will continue on in our mission. That has been such a special experience for Brandon and I.
Enjoy a few pictures of the kittens! Jerry is the brown cat. Also, I threw in a couple others, one of Liz helping me make cookies and one of B and Luke out back playing last Thursday. Liz has been a HUGE help to me lately. Last Saturday, in addition to chores, she helped me weed, plant, do laundry and cook dinner. Go Liz!! Last weekend, Laura and I went for late night slurpees. I love those moments. Nothing huge, but just a fun moment with my Laura getting a treat. Good Stuff.
So we are all doing well, I'm loving staying home. I thought I would struggle with it. I've always worked. But I love being at home, taking care of my home and family and even the stupid cat. School is good, I am anxious to get my degree done and get into graduate school. Brandon is loving his job. I've never seen him so happy. I'm always in awe of what a hilarious man I am married to. One minute he has me cracking up, the next he is dancing with me in the living room making me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world. With him being done with school and his new schedule, we have had fun having so much free time together. Lilly has started riding horses and loves it, Laura is still dancing. Luke loves all the space in the new house and Liz is as fun as ever. Whew! Sorry it's so quick....hopefully I have more time later to write more.
