Catching Up...

I know it's been forever since I last blogged, no excuses, but here's whats been going on in our lives the past three and half months.

We moved! Chris got a job working with his dad in a men's formal wear clothing store that they own. So we moved from Provo, Utah to Logan, Utah. I found a new job as well, but still as a dental assistant.
Our moving trip was quite the fiasco, it's a really long story, but basically as we were in the moving truck on our way up to Logan, my car broke down! We couldn't get it into a shop til the next morning, so we stayed the night at our friend's house and in the morning decided it would be best to tow the Honda and just get it fixed in Logan. So we had to rent an auto carrier last minute to tow the car. We dropped the car off and waited to hear the diagnosis.... Hours later we found out that the car needed a new head gasket, timing belt, and water pump. It was so expensive we debated whether or not to get a new car.... But decided to just get it fixed. I didn't get my car back for two weeks!






Good-bye first apartment! We'll miss you!!



Moving into our new apartment was also a disaster! It was so dirty and gross we spent three straight days painting, cleaning the carpet, the tile, cupboards, drawers, pretty much redoing all the "so-called" cleaning that the land lady said she did. But three days later it looks so much better and we can finally call it home!



Our new apartment!



After all the craziness finally died down we added a new member to our family... met Eva! Our new puppy! She's a teacup Yorkshire terrier, she's so much fun and we love her!










She's so small and cute!




We also went on our annual trip to Yellowstone with Chris' family.








It was fun to hang out with the whole family and spend time together.



We saw lots of cool wildlife.



And the boys spent lots of time fishing. Chris caught five!



Eva also came with us, which made the trip fun for me since I didn't get to fish.




I also went back home to Oregon for my little sister Nicole's high school graduation.






I can't believe how grown up she's getting! We were all so proud of her! Nicole plans on going to a local community college and studying diagnostic imaging.



We had a huge graduation party after ward for the nine LDS graduates at this really pretty park in Philomath.









Nicole got lots of great graduation presents!



It was fun spending time together as a family (although Chris wasn't able to come). We went bowling...



...and golfing



and made lots of great memories!
