My life lately

Well, I'm still moving back east. Two weeks and that hasn't changed so I think it is set in stone now. :) Actually my plans are really coming together and I feel really good about my decision. I still have my moments of sadness when I think of leaving people that I love so much and I still have moments of fear but nothing that I can't handle. My plans to drive across the country are pretty set now. The date we are leaving is the only thing we haven't decided yet but I know which week and have it narrowed down to two days. The best part is I know who the other half of my "we" is! It's Corinnie! It just makes so much sense. We wanted to go on another trip this year but didn't think it would happen. We had a blast in Boston and know that we can spend many days together and like each other even more afterward. And on top of it all I think it's just going to be really good for me to leave Utah in Utah. As much as I wanted Chris or Allison to drive with me because I wanted to hang out with them for a few extra days, I think it will be good for me, very symbolic. And Corinne totally gets me. She offered to drive out of Utah for me if I'm too busy crying to do it myself but also totally gets that I may need to do it myself. We are a bunch of crazies but that's why she is one of my best friends. We completely get each other. So there it is. I leave the last week in April and I'm driving with Corinne and we are going to Nauvoo on our way back east. All amazing things!

Besides east coast plans I have just been living life as usual. I've played with Sarah & Austin some which is always a blast. Here are a few pictures, the first ones are of Austin playing with my cell phone. Whenever I walk in the door now the first thing he does is grab my purse. He knows that is where the electronics are. He also knows that the headphones fit in the cell phone and if Auntie Beth is feeling especially nice, there will be music coming out of those headphones. Oh and check out the adorable shirt he is wearing. I bought it from my friend Joanie. Check out her website! http://www.bitsycreations.com/ She is amazing!!

The second set of pictures are of Sarah and I after getting our hair did. We look a little like twins, but we're okay with that. It just means we both have fantastic taste. Sarah hadn't gotten her haircut since a month or so after Austin was born (September 2007) so this was a huge change for her. She looks amazing!
