New Mexico!!!!

It has been so long since I have posted that I had a lot of trouble getting in. I almost gave up, but here I am. Great news!! Our family is back together again. We have all moved to New Mexico (a major feat). We decided that it was no fun to be apart and to do whatever it took to live together agin. Jacob found us an apartment that week and we moved down the next. We arrived on Dec. 1. Thanks sooooo much to all those who were so willing to help Mom and Dad, Megan and Ryan, Naiyana, Ashley and several ward member who just stopped by to load boxes when they saw the moving van in the driveway. It is good to be forced to go through things and decide if it really is important enough to move once again or just get rid of it. I have been unusually on the get rid of it side and I hope I don't regret it later on.
We love our new apartment and feel like we are in a mansion. Once again, way to go Jacob for picking out a great spot to live. The playground is right outside our door and Rylie and Mason thing they are in heaven with the massive sand box around the playground. I checked out the gym this morning and it was great to have it so close and we can't wait to use the swimming pool this summer.
I am very surprised at how cold it is. There is frost on the windows in the morning and we were our coats during the day, outside.
We went to the local LDS stake volleyball at the church this morning and had a great time. It was some GOOD volleyball playing. The first person I met in the gym was actually Micha, my dad's cousin's wife.
More good news is that we bought a new digital camera at 4:00 AM at the day after Thanksgiving sales. PICTURES TO COME, after Santa wraps it a puts it under the tree of course.

Hooray for togetherness! I'm dreading the part where Will is in SL without me! I'm excited to see the pictures and hear more about your new place! Are you going to work or take some time off?

I'm so glad that you are all together as a family again! I bet it's been tough being apart. I was hoping that I would get to see you before you moved, but hopefully we'll all be able to get together when you are visiting family in Utah or Idaho. Can't wait to see the pictures!

I'm so glad you made it all safe and sound and are back together! BUT, I think you should move back... just a thought!

I am so happy to hear you are together with Jacob! You sound so happy! Gary and I lived apart briefly when we were waiting for our house to sell in Cache Valley and move to Utah county and it felt like eternity being apart. I wish we could have gotten together once more before you moved, but I am sure we will see each other again! Can't wait to see pictures! Tell Jacob hello.
