Busy weekend...

So we had a pretty busy weekend here...something going on everyday and I'm pretty worn out!  But we got the rest of the pictures of the girls from Mauri and they turned out great.




Emi and Kaitlyn, best friends!

So saturday, we went and looked at some houses and then I helped Mauri and her mom set up Kaitlyn's surprise birthday party, then of course there was the party.  We had a good time, we had pink sandwiches for dinner.  Lehi bakery will make bread for you in any color you want it, even rainbow swirl.  So we had pink bread because Kaitlyn wanted everthing pink, so there were pink streamers and pink plates and pink cupcakes and pink balloons and pink ice cream and pink plates and napkins pink utensils, just pink, pink, pink...everywhere you looked there was pink.

Sunday we went over to the Lane's for dinner and pumpkin carving (uncle Jeff's parents).  We had pot roast for dinner and then there was cake and pumpkin carving.  It was the first time I've ever really tried my hand at carving and I have to say I didn't do to bad, for a first time hmm I forgot to take a picture of it so I'll take one and post it later.  We also went and looked at the Halloween roof there in their neighborhood.  There's this guy who has all these amazing halloween decorations that he's made over the years that he puts up on his roof.  They really funny and cute.  No, pictures of that either, what am I thinking, I'm turning out to be a terrible blogger!

Then today, we got a call back from the lady with the house in Provo and we got it!  Now that we've actually got a place a whole new set of stresses has set in.  Actually, having to face moving, I'm glad we've got someplace to go so we don't get kicked out on the street and have not place to go but I'm really going to miss this neighborhood.  I love my neighbors and I have friends here and Emi has frineds here.  It's really bringing me down.  Then there's just the basic anxiety of moving in the first place, moving always makes me anxious.  

It's a really nice house it's 6brs and it has a fireplace in the living room which I'm always a big fan of.  And there's another fire pit in the back yard and the back yard is fenced in and it's got a lot of nice shade trees and it's only 5 mins from Ron's work.  All good things...the bad, it dosn't have a dishwasher, hopefully we'll be able to do something about that and it's far away from my friends :(.

I love the pictures, especially the one of Eden and the one of Katelyn and Emi. I am sad you are leaving, Mauri and I will be bored just by ourselves! You will need to have us over though, the enjoy your fenced in backyard and firepit!

we'll support what ever decission you make. and if it's to move to provo we'll all come down to the fenced in backyard.

The girls are getting so big. I can imagine that anxiety that you are feeling over the housing deal, but Ron is right, it could take months for the foreclosure to be processed and then maybe you could even get a good deal in buying the house even; just a thought.
