Gardner Village

We went to Gardner Village with Andrew, Madeline and Isaac a couple of weeks ago. The kids loved having a picnic and seeing the fun witches. We got a yummy candy apple and went to the petting zoo which was seriously the most disgusting thing ever. I couldn't wait to get out of there...but it was worth seeing the donkey try to eat Davis' head and he just laughed. That kid is not scared of anything! We sure love our neighborhood friends and are going to miss them!

Back From Kentucky

I just got back from Kentucky last night...and would you believe it, I didn't take even one picture! I guess it was less like a vacation and more like a whirl-wind looking at houses trip. I think we looked at about 40 houses (after driving for 2 straight days to get there). It was out of control! It was fun to spend the time with Steve and we had a great time with Jen and Keith and Michelle and Christian and all the kids. It made me excited to get to live by them.

We left Davis with my parents and it was too long to be away from him. The first few days were a nice break but after that I just missed him like crazy and I am not going to leave him for that long again! It was so good to get home to him. He seems older and is saying new words! He decided to stop taking 2 naps while I was gone (I knew it couldn't last forever, but it sure was nice!) so we have moved to the once a dayer. I am going to have to adjust my schedule and how I do things!

We found a couple of houses that we like but we are going to wait and see if anything else comes up and what happens with our house. The house that is #1 on the list is in a great neighborhood and is really cute and a great family house...4 bedrooms, finished basement and fabulous yard. The kitchen, however, is hideous. We aren't sure we are ready to take on a kitchen remodel. We'll have to see how it goes. House hunting is not fun. I hate it! I can't wait till we are just settled and have it all worked out.

Happy Birthday to Great Grandma Lindsay

We got together for dinner at my parents house last Sunday to celebrate Davis' Great Grandma Lindsay's birthday. It was so fun to get to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa and Great Grandma and Grandpa (Davis can't keep track of all the Grandmas and Grandpas when they are all together!). I just thought these were really cute pictures of him with some great people that we really love a lot (and are going to miss so much when we move!).

Kentucky, here we come!

We are moving to Louisville, Kentucky! Steve got an amazing job that we couldn't pass up...it kind of just fell into our laps when we weren't looking for anything...and so we are going! He is going to be working for a company called George Fern who does expo stuff (conventions, events, etc.)...basically he will be the General Manager of a company kind of like Modern Display which he used to work for. It will be really different from the accounting that he is doing now and he is really excited about getting different experience and doing something new. He starts October 20th...we put our house up for sale today and Davis and I will stay here until it sells, unless it takes forever (which we are praying it won't!). We are so sad to leave our family and friends here in Salt Lake, but at the same time we are excited to have a new experience and to be able to live close to Keith and Jenny and Michelle and Christian (Steve's brother and sister and their families). I am glad that we went to visit the fam out there last fall because I really liked Louisville and it made me very open to wanting to live there when this opportunity came up. So, we are busy getting our house ready to sell and all of the fun craziness that comes with a move like this. We'll see how it all goes!

Is this kid cute, or what?!

I have not blogged for forever. I have just been really bad at taking pictures and haven't had much to put on here. Yesterday we went running and Davis wore his stylin glasses for the entire hour run (usually he won't leave glasses or a hat on for more than 3 seconds!). I just think he looks so handsome! He is getting so grown up. We got him some new fall clothes and he looks like such a big boy in his new pants and tennis shoes. I almost can't believe it is him!
We went to the state fair last night with our friends the Tukuafus. Of course, I forgot my camera! Hopefully I can get some pictures from Jen to post. I love that Davis is getting old enough to appreciate things more. He like seeing the animals, he kept yelling COW...MOOO. He really likes cows. He LOVED the huge yellow slide. You ride down it on potato sacks and go really really fast and it is really really big. He just laughed the entire way down and thought it was the best thing ever. He also enjoyed the ice cream-we all enjoyed the ice cream! Thanks to the Tukuafus for a great night out.
We are glad that Steve is hopefully done traveling for awhile. This last week he was home the entire week and we almost didn't know what to do with him here! He also got released from his calling as young mens president last week so he was even home on Wednesday night. It felt like we had lots of family time!
I just have to comment on how great the BYU game was yesterday against UCLA. You can't be sad about being ranked 11th in the coaches poll today. BCS here we come!

Blowing Bubbles

This video is so cute to me...we were blowing bubbles and Davis isn't so good at it but he sure tries hard! What a cutie!
