The Next Chapter

We have been lucky enough to have been able to live at my in-laws the past 7 months! Since Parker was going to be applying to dental school... ahhh he sent in his applications this week!!!... and we didn't know when we would be moving... we didn't want to invest in a place until we had a better idea of what our future had in store for us. After lots of prayers & late night chats we decided to start looking for our own place! We weren't in any rush so we just looked a little here and there. Last Tuesday I found the cutest little place online. I called the landlord right away. We went and looked at it on Wednesday. Signed the papers on Saturday & started moving in right away! Everything happened so fast. We couldn't believe it. Our home is far from being organized, decorated, or finished.. but we love it so much already! This has been so bittersweet for us. I absolutely love my in-laws & all of Parker's siblings & we have had so much fun living with them. So many fun memories: late night games, movie nights, chore charts, being picked on by my "new" brothers, delicious meals, my mother-in-law teaching me her fabulous ways of cooking, lots of games of pool, trying yummy new restaurants (some not so yummy, too), etc.etc.etc. We are going to miss seeing them everyday, but are so excited to start this new journey of ours! The best part.. Cam & Lindie are our next store neighbors which means the same ward (Mike & Whit are in it too!!), lots of fun times at the pool, late nights in the hot tub, Lindie and I cooking the boys delicious meals, tennis matches, and so much more! Cheers to our cute new home & the next chapter in our little life!
More pics to come....

First night! Trying to put together our shower curtain :)

Picnic at the park!

My favorite person!


Oh, before I forget. I finally got a new job! To make a long story short: I have worked at a finance company for the past 2+ years & LOVED the people I worked with. It was time for a change & the hours didn't work so well with my new school schedule. I found the perfect job at a Chiropractors office. Great hours, fun co-worker, & even traveling involved! Well, about a week after I accepted the job the Dr. I was working for got arrested. Yeah, I know, CRAZY! That is a whole other story though. Maybe another post someday about it. I was bummed though, and I couldn't find a job for a couple weeks. I randomly decided to apply online at Nordstrom.. my most favorite store of ALL time! I got the job! I have been here for a little over a month now and I love it!
That's our updates for now!
