Ladies, Eat your hearts out!


Long have I known that I am married to an amazing man! Yesterday just re-cemented that fact into my brain! Every Wednesday, Jared takes off work so that he can be at home with the girls, which makes it possible for them to be in daycare as little as possible. If that wasn't proof enough of his amazingnicity, (do you like how I make up words :o)) yesterday, I came home to a clean house....not just a tidied up house, a clean house. Jared had not only spent the day entertaining and playing with the girls, he had also vacuumed the entire house, did the dishes, cleaned the kitchen, made our bed, and done all our laundry. When I say he did the laundry, I mean he washed, dried, folded, and put away all the laundry. Needless to say, I was amazed when I walked through the door last night! Work this week has been very stressful, and I've been pulling a lot of overtime. Because he knew how tired I'd be today, he did all the house chores I'd normally do so that I could just relax! Again.....fran freakin amazing! Oh how I love this man! I am truly the most blessed woman ever!


So, here's a shout out to my wonderful husband! Thank you so much for being my best friend, best supporter, best shoulder to cry on, and biggest fan! I can't even think where I'd be without you! Every day you remind me how lucky of a gal I am to have you by my side! You are better than the bestest! I love you!

The search is over....

Well, we finally found our first new home. And we are really excited. If all goes as planned, we should close on the 24th or 25th of November. Jared and I had kinda given up on buying right now and decided to wait another year, than build. Then Jay gave me a blessing for something totally unrelated, and then out of the blue told me that we would be finding a home soon. Well, I hadn't thought much more about it, until I saw an ad in the paper for this home. It didn't have any prices or anything, which I normally just skim right over....but for some reason felt that I needed to call on this one. So I called, and that same night we went and saw the home. The funny thing is, it is the exact home plan that we had decided we wanted to build. We felt really good about it, and fasted and prayed over it, and still felt good about it, so we made an offer....and now we are in Escrow waiting to close.

We are really excited and wanted to share it with you! We feel like such grownups now that we will actually own a home. Adulthood...here we come!
