We Moved! Over the 2011 holidays we took advantage of Quinn's time off of work and moved from our beautiful Spanish Fork townhome to a condo farther north. With Jake and Lanie gone it was just too much house and rent for our little family, so we downsized and we're hoping to pay off a significant portion of our student loans this year!
The downside of the timing was that we really didn't celebrate the holidays this year: we spent Christmas packing in our empty townhouse void of family, decorations, and food; and then we spent New Year's unpacking in our condo under similar conditions. Thankfully our babies were too young to notice...we did buy a Nativity and teach Belle about Jesus' birth- she still pretends to be Mary on a regular basis when she rides her 'donkey' and rocks her baby:-)
Even though we didn't get to spend time with our families, they sent us plenty of presents and warm wishes...Thank you everyone for your support it meant a lot during a very gloomy couple of weeks.
The good news: our new place is wonderful! We are loving life in our one story condo (no stairs is a huge plus for our family's stage of life). We are in a great community with plenty of friends Belle's and Parker's ages, our Ward has been very inviting and they have plenty of activities that are right up our ally (like basketball and play groups).
We are happy in our new home, and we are VERY happy the move is done! Now we can get on with the important things in life like licking the bowl while we wait for our chocolate pudding to set:-)
