Welcome Home

These are shelves that are in between the dining room and living room.The kitchen coming in from the right.Coming into the kitchen from the dining room. Shelves in the kitchen.The upstairs bathroom. Corner facing toilet. Awesome no?Inset mirror.

I forgot to take a picture of the upstairs bedroom but that will have to wait till later. Downstairs to come later too.

There Was A Man That Was Killing His Neighbors Trees, And Now I Know Why.

The trees are pretty in Utah. We didn't really have trees in Vegas. We had a palm tree but that is nothing in comparison. One of the things that we liked about this house was the big tree in the front yard. We came to find out it is a horse chestnut tree. Lovely. Cleaning up the leaves and chestnuts out of the grass...not so much. When it was all said and done we had 20+ bags. We paid the kids a penny a chestnut to pick up the nuts out of the grass. With their money Gavin got a batman toy and Laney got a barbie.

Another funny thing about our house is the dishwasher. It hooks up to the kitchen sink. It doesn't bother us too much. We are just glad that we don't have to wash dishes by hand.

Shame On You Pottery Barn

I don't know what it is? Perhaps Blake and I are crude and think strange things are funny. Such as...

The other day we were in Pottery Barn Kids with the kids. I was looking around while the kids played with a doll house and Blake watched them. When I can back to where they were Blake says

"Uh. So...uh, what is with the anatomically correct doll?"

I laughed. I cried. I took a picture. And then I laughed some more.

And There You Have It

Since moving into our new house Canon hasn't been able to sneek cereal out of the cupboard.

Some other points of interest:

I got strep throat. Again.

Canon went to a ears, nose and throat specialist. They are going to put tubes in his ears.

Almost all of our stuff is put away.

We got new callings in our ward. We are teaching the 12 & 13 year olds.

We are giving talks this Sunday.

Just A Week

We moved into the new house.

We are surrounded by boxes.

I may make a fort.

See you in a week.

The Wait Is Over

Happy Halloween!

I loved our Halloween costumes this year. I made mine, part of Blake's and Canon's. When my mom was here she helped me figure out what to do with the Grimus face. She also pretty much revamped the pattern on my Ronald costume.

I am quite proud of our McDonalds family.

Pumpkin Patch

Back Tracking

When we were in California we went to the Long Beach aquarium. I had strep throat so I wasn't feeling so hot. I also had just lost my cell phone the day before so I was bummed and not looking forward to spending money on a new phone. Going to the aquarium, for me, did not sound like a super fun time. But in the end, we had a really good time. Canon spent most of the time at the aquarium climbing stairs. He didn't really care about the fish. But let me tell you cement stairs were the "it".

It was a good day.

Things That Happened This Last Week:

• Blake left for a week to go to California for FEMA training.
• My Mom came to help. I was quite the slave driver while she was here.
• We have moved most of our stuff to the new house. We also repainted some rooms and cleaned.
• We had rocking costumes for Halloween. At this point you are just going to have to believe me because Blake packed our camera cord away and we don't know where it is.

Things that we are doing this week:

• Finish packing up our stuff and move in.
• Try to catch up on blogging...maybe.
• Take Canon to the doctor. This is his 4th ruptured ear drum.
• Try to have some kind of semblance of normalcy at our house.

on a side note: I lost my cell phone while at Disneyland. I have lost every ones phone numbers. So if I should have your number please email it to me or I will never be able to call you again. Sad for you, I know. Oh, I got a new phone and it is still the same number.
