We're Moving!!!

So, we're moving. Not as far as we thought we'd be moving, but we're still really excited! We found a town home down in Payson. It has 2 bedrooms, 1 1/2 bathrooms, and almost triple the space we have right now! The offer was just accepted yesterday, so assuming everything goes through, we should have a new set of keys by the end of the month!


Cute little bay window!


I think the floors and the trim work are 2 of my favorite parts!



Ceiling fans are great!


I love the floors!


Granite counters, a nice fridge, and a mini double oven!


The half bath


The falcons stuff was not a selling factor (despite popular belief) nor were they asked for as part of the offer.


The back bedroom


The lovely upstairs bathroom!

There is also a small back yard with lots of open space behind and in front there is a brand new baseball complex, so we won't be having anything built over there. We are VERY excited! Anybody feel like helping with a move?

Happy 4th of July!

This weekend was rather busy, but pretty fun! My entire family came down for the weekend! On the 4th we didn't do the typical 4th of July stuff. We did go get some pizza and found a nice park by our apartment and watched various people and their fireworks. We were all glad that there were so many people willing to send their own money up in flames. Thanks to several people in the North Provo/South Orem area and to the Stadium of Fire, we had a pretty nice little show! That night Chelsie and Caleb camped out in our living room while Mama, Daddy, and Emily went up to Sandy to stay the night. It was kinda fun to have them over for the night. Nate and Caleb played a game called Field Command while Chelsie and I watched a nice chick flick (I actually fell asleep pretty quickly).

Saturday we got visit with all sorts of family. We saw most of the Nances before they head off to Josephs wedding and then their new tour of Germany. After a couple hours of visiting with them, we spent some time with Dusty and Bill. Bill made his very yummy burgers. Yumm!!! It was nice to be able to see so much family! The weekend went rather quickly, but it was nice to spend a little time with my family.

The Joys of Google Reader

I am confessing to a slight problem I have with spending time on the computer. After an entire day of looking at a computer, I come home and spend hours on end staring at my own computer checking email, Facebook, friends blogs, and other such things. But now, I am happy to say, I have been spending MUCH less time on the computer. I found this wonderful little thing called Google Reader. I have it check for updates on all of the blogs and news pages that I read, so instead of spending hours checking several different sites, I just check Google Reader and it tells me who has made any changes. I love it!!! I'm not trying to sound like a commercial, I'm just saying that I am happy to be breaking my computer addiction. I can now keep up on everything online and spend time on different and more important things. I feel so free!!!
