Yes, we are still alive...

I know, I know, many of you think we have up and fallen off the face of the earth. Well....although at times it feels like that would be nice, we are still here. :) Since I have obviously gotten EXTREMELY behind in my blog I'm going to try and fly through our little adventures that have been keeping us so busy.

So on New Years Day, my kiddos all headed to Utah with Aunt Hollie and Gma Carolyn. They were getting a headstart so the girls could start school at the first of the year. I was staying behind to pack up the house. As you can plainly see the kids were heart broken about leaving with out me...



So for 17 days I did nothing much other than packing up a very large house...

Robby flew in on the 15th to make the move with me. We rented a 26ft truck and thought we may have room to spare...We ended up packed extremely tight. We also towed the Montana, the poor thing never would have made it

We are sure going to miss this house, our friends and the beautiful state of Colorado...
















Entering into Cache Valley brought back A LOT of emotions. I had forgotten just how beautiful and peaceful this valley is. This is the view from the front of Hollies house. Every morning I love to just go watch as the sunrise turns these gorgeous mountains into a sight that just brings an at home feeling.
This is the view out the back of the house. As you can see it is heaven. Maddie spends the majority of her time out talking to and petting the horses. She has found her passion. Hollie is going to start giving her riding lessons every Sat. Needless to say Maddie's dream has come true.

I'm glad you're alive. We'll have to get together. Call me anytime. We are only 11 weeks away from a new baby (I'm saying only 9 because Greyson was 2 weeks early) so hopefully I'll see you before then. My Mom's coming up this week to get the nursery done, yeah!

Your pictures are beautiful!! I'm sad that I never got to visit you in your home in Colorado. Hopefully I will get to at your next permanent location. Miss you guys so much! Can't wait until graduation time so I can see you!

I love the way your kids were "crying" to be leaving you behind. So much for being a mom...
Really you are amazing to pack all that stuff and move again. I'm glad you got a bigger truck this time.
