Halfway Moved

Well, I have no Thanksgiving pictures to post because my camera cord is in a box somewhere between here and Kentucky. We spent the beginning of the week packing up and loading up our 'pods' with all of our stuff (Thank you so much to everyone that helped). When the 4 pods were full, we still had a living room full of stuff...it was a lot of money to get another pod so we spent Wednesday morning (like 5 hours) re-arranging and re-packing and fit most everything in. I wish I had taken a picture of them full. We used pretty much every square inch. There were a few things that didn't make the cut, but for the most part we got the important things. I felt a little like a pioneer trying to prioritize what we really needed and just kept thinking somewhere in those pods are boxes full of hangers and I have to leave my treadmill here? You have to be kidding. Anyway, I am so glad we are done with this side of it (only 2 more moves to go!). We had a really nice Thanksgiving with Steve's family and have been so grateful that we could stay at my parents house while they are out of town. Steve went back to Kentucky this morning and I leave on Tuesday. We are really going to do this! It seems a little surreal. I am excited but aprehensive and it will be good to finally be moved instead of just talking about it and to have our family back together. Kentucky, here we come!

Cougar Fans!!

Davis has to be the cutest BYU fan ever (Steve is going to LOVE this!) I had to go down to BYU the other day to get my transcripts and I couldn't resist making a little stop by the bookstore! I just love being on campus...so many fun great memories. Just being there makes me happy! Davis even says Go Cougars! So cute! We will be cheering loud for our team tomorrow! Go BYU! Beat Utah!

Watch out Dancing with the Stars!

Davis has been cracking me up with his dance moves lately. Here is a little taste of the fun!

Kentucky, Apartments and Houses

First news first...Our house went under contract yesterday! We are so so excited and just praying that it actually goes through. I don't think that I am going to breath until closing. Happy Day! If it really sells life will be so much easier and less stressful! So that is my great news for today!

Davis and I got back from visiting Steve in Kentucky on Tuesday. Davis was really good on the way there but I think that he was possessed by the Devil himself on the way home. I have never been so glad to arrive somewhere. I can not express in words how bad it was! When we got home I had to put him down for a nap and take a few hours to recover although I am still not sure that has happened! I am dreading the next flight in a couple of weeks.

We looked at more houses while I was there and found one that we loved that was willing to do a lease option so we made an offer. However, I don't think this woman watches the news because she was not willing to budge on her price and thinks she is going to make a ton of money on the house. I wish her luck, but she will not be making a ton of money from us! So it was back to the drawing board. By drawing board I mean we went and rented an apartment. I was really disapointed but in the long run I know we will make a much better decision. This way hopefully our house will sell and we will have time to find what we really want at a price we really want and not be pressured by a deadline. I am not too excited about moving twice or having all our stuff in storage or spending Christmas in an apartment, but it definitely is not the end of the world and at least we will be together with Steve again.

Steve gets here the week of Thanksgiving and we are packing up and moving for real that week. It should be interesting. I guess I'd better get packing! Thanks for all the prayers for our house to sell. We are so grateful for them and you!
