the adventure

Wow. What a week. What a quarter... Starting in November we thought we'd found a house. Due to the Utah Happenings in December, closing got pushed back. Due to snags with paperwork, closing got pushed back again...and again. FINALLY after 3 months of looking, 2 months of waiting, 1 week of crazy running, and a weekend of exhausting labor... We are officially....

HOME OWNERS! I'm telling you...it was all I could do to drag my body out of bed this a.m. Once I got moving, it got better but in today alone, I think I've mastered the "pregnant lady waddle". I'm seriously hoping that will fade as my body relaxes again. So, we've bought our first house and moved since I last blogged. We're pretty excited. We're exhausted. We're a little nervous. I've never had this much space since we've been married. So, should anyone like to come visit....we definitely have room for you to stay. Plus, we're free :) . Watch your email for our new address and such :).
Blogging may be a little sparce...I'm finally going to UT again in a couple days.
Happy February, everyone!

WOOHOOOO!

Seriously, I've been waiting all weekend for this post! I am so happy that things finally worked out. Now we are both moved :) Now if only we could both have our babies - ok, maybe yours should wait a few months;)

Do you wander around asking where everyone is? I bet the kids are totally digging it!

YAY!! I've been waiting all weekend to hear about your house! I can't wait to see more pics.

Sorry I missed your call tonight. We were at a super bowl party (yeah, this year we opted to go to one instead of throw one...and it was AWESOME....didn't have to clean my house :D).

Goodluck with packing and the drive to utah. You'd better start taking it easy!
