Temporary Home

The Robisons have been beyond gracious and hospitable in allowing us to make their home our temporary home for the past 2+ months. We will be moving into our more permanent home this week, but have had so much fun and made some wonderful memories in our time here.  I won't lie. I will be sad to leave. I am always sad to leave my sister and her adorable family. Luckily, we will only be a short 4 hour drive away. Thank heavens.   

A LOT took place while we were here...

We attended Hunter's, Tate's, Bridger's and Bronson's soccer games. Hailey's swim meets, volleyball games, and watched her cheer at the football games. Bridger and Tate duke it out on the wrestling mat, and Hunter out on the basketball court. So much fun to see all these kids in their element.

I was able to meet up with a dear, dear friend, Klaudia.  She was an amazing young woman in Gyor, Hungary. I spent a lot of time in that city and became great friends with her.  She was serving her mission in Ogden.  We met up for lunch and had a wonderful time speaking with each other in both of a native and learned languages.

We visited Grandma Joy. She showed Makayla some books and we laughed together. 

We enjoyed playing outside... a lot- and lots of walks and bike rides around the reservoir. 

We loved every minute of fall and the gorgeous leaves. 

We celebrated Halloween and Makayla got WAY into it. She has been a cheerleader several times since.

We visited Twin Falls, our soon to be new city, and found a lovely home to buy. 

We experienced the tremendous pain in the backside that home buying has become.

We took the trax up to SLC and had an adventure touring the visitor's centers on Temple Square. So much fun. 

Makayla built her first snowman...and threw her first snowballs. 

Lots of girl bonding...

and boy bonding. 

This big boy turned one.

Tate was baptized and we all got to celebrate with him. 

Andrew studied his tail off for six and a half weeks (like seriously 10-11 hours a day) took the PT licensing exam- PASSED it- (with flying colors) and became a legitimate licensed PT.  We all think he is pretty awesome. 

 We have been blessed, and look forward to the next adventures.
