Homeowner's Again!

After a long search and many misadventures in house hunting, we have finally closed on our new home!  Our kids are exhausted from an over-filled weekend, so we took the night off, had a picnic and a swim in our new backyard to celebrate.  



We have a view of llamas and cows from our backyard





I threw a few photos on the wall to make it feel like ours.


We will have lots of updating over the next few years and I'm excited about having projects to do!  It is going to be a great house for our family.

High School Reunion


This whole weekend was such a treat!  Dayna and Marna both flew in and Heather and I joined them and stayed at my mom's house for a semi-kid free weekend of girl time and 20 year reunioning!

Erin Roberts, Me, Sarah Keedy, Holly Lutze

Friday night we went to a new place in town that isn't open to the public, but opened a bit early for just our group.  We had to scream at each other over the loud music, but it was worth it to catch up with some wonderful people that we hadn't seen for so long!

I continued my reputation as yearbook girl and took lots of pictures.  It was a good excuse for me to walk up and talk to people that I didn't necessarily hang out with way back then.  Everyone was so genuine and fun to hang out with.  I got tired of asking what everyone was up to these days... not because I didn't want to know, but because I was on information overload!  I'm glad I took a break to sit down and talk with a few people that I particularly enjoyed and hope that we can stay in touch.  I can't believe how much we all still remember each other after little to no contact for all of these years.  I thought it was especially neat how important our elementary school friends were to us.  There were several people that I didn't really associate with past jr. high, but we all still care about one another now.  It was a fantastic couple of nights!
