I'm still here...are you?

You know, I aspire to be a great blogger. I dream up amazing blog posts in my head that never quite make it onto the actual blog. However, I'm aspiring to be a great mommy and I'll be darned if that takes up the majority of my time. :)

Long story short, Braydon and Mckenzie are hilarious. Braydon squeals like a monkey and roars like a dinosaur. He breaks into fits of laughter when he's being tickled or when his uncle Jeremy is around. McKenzie has discovered when she makes faces people laugh. She kept the ladies in Relief Society entertained by making faces at them. Both are trying to crawl, McKenzie still rolling away and eating everything in sight. We're looking forward to Christmas as a family!

We made an offer on a house in Homedale, and we're playing the waiting game right now. Waiting for work to be done on the house and an appraisal to be done before everything can close. It's 4 bedrooms, 2 bath, and we're stoked it's still in our ward! It's a nice starter home and we're anxious to get everything done so we can move in. We'll also have room for visitors, so we can be social again, and my family can come visit! I sure miss them, and am excited for them to visit us in our neck of the woods. Andrew is still chugging away at work, and has a new position starting in January. It's been a long time coming, and it's going to come about at a perfect time! I'm so proud of all he's accomplished and everything he's acquired up to this point. He has been so patient and worked so hard. He is starting to go places and I'm grateful me and the kids get to be a part of the journey with him!
