We're Moving!!

We bought a new house a few miles away! Here is the link to it. We're super excited to move! (Except for the actual moving part!) There are a lot of things that we were looking for in this house that it has!
  • A bigger garage for two cars
  • A master suite with a master bathroom
  • More usable square footage
  • Two floors that can actually be used
  • Air Conditioning
Anyway, those are the things that we wanted in a house, and, when it all came down to it, with the equity from our house now, we were able to keep our mortgage pretty close to what our mortgage is now, which is awesome! We thought we had a house that was really close to my parents, and our offer was accepted. But then the seller decided that they didn't want to sell to us. So, we were on the market again! There are so many things that we will miss from our neighborhood, though!
  • Great friends!
  • Fabulous memories, such as:
    • Having it be the first home that we have owned together
    • Watching Davis play as a little baby in the home
    • Bringing Reagan to this home when she was born 
    • Watching her grow up here
    • Starting a garden from scratch. We are super bummed to not be able to harvest this year!
    • Our fall-out shelter. We admit, this is pretty cool. Even though we have a storage room in the new place, we will miss it!
In our new home, we will have:
  • More room
  • The ability to entertain lots of family and friends at the same time
  • Everything that we wanted from our list
  • Even closer proximity to my parents--we are in the same stake!

     
    See! Both homes sold! Yippee!




    This is mostly after getting everything packed. I assure you that the process was not all that much fun!

10 years of marriage

Wow! 10 years of marriage! We have lived in three houses . . .


 Provo

Orem
and Idaho Falls.
In two different states! We have taken numerous vacations together . . .


















Celebrated a job change . . .
And mourned a job loss. . .
Lots of holidays and birthdays . . .


Some sicknesses and surgeries . . .
Two kids . . . who love each other a lot!


And many more IVF attempts at having children . . .


Lots of eating with family and friends . . .

Lots of races . . .




Amazing adventures . . .


 And sad experiences too . . .
It's been a wild and crazy ride, but there's no one I'd rather do it with! I love you, babe!





Guys, marriage is HARD! But it's definitely worth it!
