Moving

I know I haven't posted in awhile. I have been crazy busy getting my photography blog up and going and since we are moving to Seattle I have been busy with lots of sessions. Isn't it funny how people wait til the last minute to get things done. (It's all good cause I'm a major procrastinator myself). So in one week from today we are leaving. I am excited and nervous all at the same time. I really look forward to this new adventure and Seattle sounds exciting, on the other hand Pete will be in grad school and gone all the time and I will be in a huge strange city all alone. good thing for the church right.

It's funny when I was younger I really disliked living in Utah and couldn't wait until I left and went somewhere exciting. Well I did, I lived in Florida for 3 years and California for almost 2 and came back to Utah because I missed it here so much. I thought I would never leave again. I am having a hard time imagining what our life will be like outside of Utah. We miss all our friends already and it is very hard to leave family (good thing I am busy everynight until we leave, I won't have much time to think about it.)

Keep following the blog and I will keep you up on what is happening with us. Sorry there are no pictures as my computer is down with a virus and currently out to be fixed. Unfortunately this means that I don't have photoshop to edit any of my gazillion pictures I have taken recently. Seriously I am addicted to my computer, I may need a 12 step program.

So the offical day of departure is the 25th. We will take 3 days to get there (we are making the trip a mini vacation, stopping early to let the kids go swimming in the hotel etc. etc.) And we will be moving into our new home on friday the 28th. I don't know how long it will take us to get internet (again I am addicted so I am sure we will be on top of that) so keep checking on us. Oh and one last thing, it's all good with me if you want to start planning your trips to Seattle.

My kids

My kids are so funny. They are happiest when we are sitting outside and they play really well together. However try as I might I can't for the life of me get a cute picture with Isaac and Gabby together. Isaac smiles and laughs to be next to her and she can't hardly take the time to stop, huge him, or sit next to him, and smile. Seriously makes me crazy. Ones of these days I will figure it out.

Isaac

So today Pete got a message from one of his professors at Weber State and they are unable to meet with him on the 11th to defend his final project for school. So now we are not going to be able to leave for Seattle next week like we thought. I have no concrete idea as to when we are going to go which is getting frustrating. We will keep you all updated, as for now we are here for at least 2 more weeks. So if you want to see us before we go there is still time to do so, just don't procrastinate it.

And here's my cute boy at Wheeler Farm. He is growing so big I just don't know what to do. He is 8 months old and is crawling every where and he is walking along furniture. He just adores Gabby and follows here where ever he can. He thinks he is bigger than he is (or wishes he were). I know I have said it before but I love his eyes and his smile, seeing his smile is infectous I love it.

Seattle update

I really wish that I could give you all an update on what our plans are for this month and when we are leaving for Seattle. First Pete tells me that we are leaving the last week of august. Then I get told we are leaving the weekend of the 15th. Now I am being told we are waiting for the last week of august. I have no idea when we are going. I'm sure that one day I will wake up and Pete will say pack your bags we're leaving tomorrow. I really just can't wait to get to Seattle and get settled into our new life. We have a house that we are going to be able to rent right on campus so that's great news for us. It's a 2 bedroom and I will have a washer and dryer (yeah me!), I'm hoping that I will have a dishwasher as my Pete2000 doeasn't work as well as I would like. Pete tells me I didn't keep up on the maintance and I told him I just want to upgrade it. Good thing we can laugh at eachother.

Well we went to wheeler farm the other day and I snapped some pictures of Gabby. She is really growing into a beautiful child. When Isaac stops crying at my feet I will get some up of him.
