Spring Break!
For Spring Break we decided to spend a few days in Salt Lake since Blair is down there most of the week we thought we might as well join him and get away for a few days. Despite the weather not cooperating we had a really good time and were able to do some fun things. We met my sister and her kids at Kangaroo Zoo and the kids had a blast jumping around there. We also went to the Living planet aquariam, the Gateway childrens museum, and got a chance to look at a few houses. We also got to eat a lot of good food and Brooklyn's favorite part of staying with Tyson and Katie is always going in the hot tub. We had a great time and it was nice to get away for a few days and get away from the stress of life right now.









My amazing quilt!
So months ago I posted on my quilt that I was working on, well I put it off when we started trying to sell the house. Well with that being so unsuccessful I decided that pulling out the quilt would divert my attention to something else and boost my spirits and it did just that. Not only did I love working on it, but now that it is done I just want to start on another one. Now I am thinking about making ones for the girls. I am so proud of it and as long as you don't look too close it is pretty good. One down and many more to come!

Staying busy!
The last little while has been a little crazy with Blair in Salt Lake most of the week and us here alone. We have been trying to stay busy and sane and have been doing okay. Some days are better than other, but overall we are doing good. The kids keep me laughing and having a good time and I am so grateful for them.

They stay busy doing crazy things and keeping me on my toes. They just love playing on this matress and actually all three played together without any fighting and without Hunter biting anyone. (Both rare)


I bought these new boots the other day and Brooklyn think that they are just wonderful, so she spent most of the morning wearing them and being a model. Hunter also had to have his turn wearing the boots. It was a good thing the Blair wasn't home for that.

Rocking the Halls!
Isabel has been working really hard at reading a lot of books and taking AR tests and this past friday she was able to "rock the halls". I got the chance to go and watch her and it was so much fun to see. They started by playing "who let the dogs out," and then the kids follow the principal running down the hall as all of the other students stand in the hall cheering them on. It was really fun to see and I am so proud of the reader that she is becoming. She was so happy and it was a great day for her.

BIG SCARY CHANGE!
So for the last couple of weeks things have been pretty stressful around here. We have had a lot on our minds and we have had to make a lot of decisions. So for those of you who do not know I am just going to say it.
We are moving!
Yes we are moving, and not just around the block like we thought we would be in a couple of years. We are moving down to the Salt Lake area. We are not exactly sure where we will end up, but we have been looking at towns and we will probably move to Herriman. I am better this week telling people than I was last week, but it has still been pretty hard. I have come to feel good about the decision, but putting the for sale sign up at our house just made it so real. Blair got a great job down there, and we are so happy for him, but it is going to be a huge change for all of us. So at this point we are just hoping and praying that our house will sell and sell fast so that we won't have to commute and be apart forever. So we are hoping that by word of mouth somebody will know of somebody who want to buy our wonderful home. We know that things will work out and hope to be able to move down there at the beginning of the summer, so we have our fingers crossed that things will work out just like we hope. So everyday brings a little more anxiety and next week when Blair starts his job and is gone a lot I think the anxiety will be even worse, but hopefully it will only be for a short while and then things will work out and we will be together and get adjusted. So wish us luck and let us know if you know of anyone who could help us out with our house.
