Where have we been?!

...Everywhere! I'm a little behind, which might be the understatement of the year! Let's do a quick re-cap for informational purposes.

Since Memorial day we've been to Washington twice, once was for the heck of it and very last minute, but worth it and fun! The second was for The Gough family reunion, which was an absolute blast! After the reunion my family returned home without me and I was joined one of my absolute favorite people in the world, Ryley. Who was kind enough to spend a week letting me drag her all over Washington in an effort to show her everything since it was her first time there. And she put up with going to a DMB concert at the Gorge which was the original purpose of the trip. That was July and I'll post some pictures soon.

Oh, also in July I helped my dad move my 90 year old grandpa and his house full of stuff of 40 years down to UT where he could be closer to those who could care for him. That was an adventure. Between July and August Brian and I said goodbye :) to our old ward and our first home :( and moved to Daybreak with my parents. Knowing that we would be moving to Kansas in less than a year, we decided it would be prudent to save some money and live in mom and dad's basement for a bit. Also relieving the stress of trying to sell the house last minute. The move went smoothly, and the boys have never been happier. Where as before Jake was the only one with friends in our ward and immediate area, we now live on a street with 13 boys ages 6,7,8,9. It's wild and noisy, but heaven! The kid's new school seems nice. They are really un-organized compared to the last school, but I guess the principal is pretty new, so I'm sure that will come with experience.

We are really really happy in our new ward. Everyone is so nice and so normal, it's truly changed our bad opinion of UT. It's been nice living with my parents during this crazy time as well. Which brings me to about current since everything now has been the main events for the last few months.

Brian has started a masters program in counseling at the University of Phoenix. In addition to working full time, this has been a big undertaking. In January I will be starting a 500 hour yoga certification program that will be very intense but amazing. It will take me 6 months to complete.

Well, I think that's good for now, I'll catch up more later.
