update


Friday kind of marked a bittersweet day for me. My parents moved from Logan, UT after living there for 10 years! More than anything I wish I was there to help them, and to say goodbye to their strange little house. To say goodbye to Logan in general. I have had MANY of good memories there. I really haven't thought much about it because I'm so far away and sometimes things that don't go on right in front of me seem a little surreal. It just occurred to me how much I really am going to miss them living there!
  1. I will miss going "home" for Christmas. I guess this marks the point where going to my parents house isn't really home anymore. Which sounds silly I guess- kind of hard to explain. But my "home" now is with my boys, in my house, here in Georgia.

  2. I will miss getting my snow fix for the Holidays. I guess I can still get that when I go to Utah Valley to visit friends and family there.

  3. I will miss driving down cute little Main St. and see all the old and new shops mixed together and just the small town feel of it all.

  4. I will miss drives up to the canyon with Dad and looking for Moose and going to Tony Grove. I had one of the coolest moments alone fishing there, and got to hike with my daddy there before I left to come live here.

  5. Going to Bear Lake.

There's more... but yeah, it's pretty sad and exciting for them too. They needed to make a change and we all know this was the best one for them. At least we know that whenever we go to visit, it'll always be warm and they have a pool in the neighborhood- they moved to St. George! WOO HOO!

Another monumental occasion... look what our boy decided to be able to do yesterday!

This is today, he started with the elbows yesterday but has moved to the hands now! Just needs to get the knee action down! And the kid just doesn't even have time for sitting still, so he's still mastering his sitting up on his own skills! I LOVE HIM and yes, I am so proud of him! I can't believe how big he's getting!

AND... we're happy that DJ is coming back next week, yes it's early- but for circumstances unforeseen, we're sort of relieved!
