A new post. Finally!

Well Ben and I have been busily getting ready to move to Utah, we have started putting money aside, getting cars sold, and de-junking our lives. I don't know why it is so hard to say good-bye to stuff but I found myself struggling to throw away plastic bags from a trip to Disneyland over 8 years ago. With mom's help I got rid of more then half my "stuff" and now that i have it feels great. Thanks mom! Ben is not excited to move to were it is 110 in August but is excited to move to Utah and getting going with school again. We will be staying with Amanda, and Elizabeth for a week or two until we find an apartment of our own. I just can't wait to be in our own home again and start the new lives down there. We will miss our families and Thomas will really miss his grandmas and grandpas and all his cousins! But we will be back and Ben will have a great new career! 

Yesterday after Ben helped dad work on the 4-plex we left for North Pole to help Amy and Jake finish their house. More money to set aside for our big move! It really is pretty up here and Ben would love it if I would agree t live here when we are done with school but I am so not going to make that commitment right now. I am still not all that found of the prospect of living threw another -55 winter! I guess we will just have to see what happens in 3 to 4 years.

I am still here!

So Ben and I have been up helping Becky and Ray the last 3 weeks. It have been great to see how great Ray is doing and it was good to see him home. We will be going to North Pole this weekend to help Amy and Jake finish up there house and then we will be heading out to Utah. We are excited and nervous about this new step in our lives. Thomas is getting so big and growing like a weed. We will post pics soon!
