An Overdue Update

Hello Everyone!

I know, I know. I haven't posted an update in over a month! Guilty as charged. We've had quite a busy summer. Here's what we've been up to:

1. We closed on our house on August 20th.
2. We painted our house (3 bedrooms, hallway, kitchen, and half the living room)
3. We moved in!
4. We moved OUT (and cleaned) our rental house...we're glad that's over!
5. We've packed and unpacked - I guess that technically goes along with moving, but I just had to throw that in.
6. Haili had the flu (not swine, thank goodness)
7. She gave it to me (that wasn't fun)
8. We've had 2 recent trips to Primary's for Laurie - both of which were uneventful (yay!)
9. We bought 2 koi to put in our 120 gallon fish tank in the basement. Our goal is to one day have a koi pond in our back yard - as these koi can grow to be two feet long! We named the white fish "Yoda" and the orange and white one was named "Nemo" by Haili. We bought them from Utah Koi in West Jordan. If you ever have the chance to stop by - it is the COOLEST place. This lady has this amazing pond in her back yard. You can feed the fish by hand. It's awesome.

That's basically what we've been up to the last little while. I have promised some friends that I would post pictures of the house... those will come soon! I just need to unpack the box with all of my camera equipment... wish me luck!

Oh how I love to move, but hate packing and unpacking. I get a real itch to move on. Sounds like you did have quite the busy summer. So where is the new place?
You are still in Logan right? Good Luck in your unpacking, I know how you feel.

I'm so excited for you guys! moving is the best. How are the girls liking the house?

How is Laurie? I haven't asked about her in a while and I was thinking of her yesterday and was like "I am so rude! I haven't asked how she is doing!"

I don't know if you guys are planning on going to Peach Days on Saturday but i'll be running a booth from 10-2

yay for moving into your own home! It's such a great feeling. I was up in Logan last Friday and drove by the old neighborhood and wondered if you were still there.

Enjoy settling in!

Great update! Hopefully things are starting to settle down a little. Sorry I didn't call you back about the bed frame, it was actually gone within a couple of hours of the listing on KSL - and things have been a bit crazy around here too, so I haven't gotten a chance to call back. Hopefully life can settle down again soon and we can get together again.
