As many of you know we have had a lot going on. We are FINALLY moved!!! This move has been the worst one yet. We moved only a few blocks a way, however we had a few weeks to work with to move in and move out. We are done though! Our next move will hopefully be our last.
On that note... We are out west right now. Brian has a six week rotation he is doing in Utah. We are trying to get a feel for where we want to set up our practice . We have checked out Flathead Valley in Montana, Boise Idaho, ( along with many other Idaho towns) and Utah. We have a great job offer out in the midwest, and one in California. We will see.....
A few highlights going on before we left include:
Jackson taught himself how to ride a bike.
Taylor completed his pinewood derby car race. He wanted to build a hummer. He did a great job.
A wonderful Mother's Day.
With lots of exciting treasures.....
Dad stealing Mom away for a night for their anniversary while our good friends kept our kids.
Mom turning 30! Her friend threw a surprise party for her. Great surprise, with all of her good friends invited! What a wonderful surprise it was!
Taylor, and McKenzie finished a wonderful year at Nash Elementary.
A GREAT Father's Day!
McKenzie finished off her baseball year successfully.
Jackson as an all-star in T-Ball. ( The picture will come later, can't find one... oopps!)
Mom completed two of her goals that were set at the beginning of the year. However, completing one goal led to a change in the other goal. I was doing really well training for a 10K but the night before the race my friend Aimee, Emily, and I realized we really should just stick to the 5k. I was so grateful that I changed my mind. I did really good and it was hard work training for it, I didn't quite get my goal of 24.5 minutes, but at this point, it was more or less just about finishing the race; completing my goal. Brian, the kids, and some friends came down to cheer us on. Brian said that it was so neat to see me round that last corner. He knew what my hearts intent was for running the race. It has been a long last few months for me. I just really needed to feel like I could have a success in my life. What an accomplishment it was for me.
This fall our family is training to do a 5K together (the Turkey Trot). It's a fun thing to do as a family. I've really enjoyed starting running again. Thanks to all my friends and family for your encouragement and support. It's been a wonderful focus for me. Thanks to those of you who have inspired me. Your awesome!
Moved out of the old house...
And into our new house.
A few visits from Jonny , Katie. and Kyson Griffeth.
4th of July celebration. ( Again can't find the pictures.)
I will keep you posted better in the future. That is my goal once we get back home, and the kids start school. I am so sorry for the lack of posts. We are doing great, and are having a wonderful time seeing all our friends, and family. I will fill you in later with all our events. We have sooo many things to fill you all in on.
