Crazy Audrey

In an effort to love and praise our children equally here is a video with Audrey as the main feature. We Don't know where Audrey learned this, must be something in the water out here. We think this is so funny, maybe that 's why she does it so much!

Hey Everyone! This is a really funny video of Auston eating turkey for the first time. It's so funny! Hope you enjoy!

The Slideshow

As you can probably see, we have added "Slideshow of the Unspecified Time Period". You may have also noted that we haven't been able to update our blog regularly, so we can't promise that the slideshow will be changed at any regular interval, hence, the name of the slideshow.
Well, this slideshow is of our recent trip to Hawaii with my (Steve's) family. We had the best time. It was a great way to connect with my family before we left Utah. The twins were with Kristen's parents so we had a true vacation. We loved it and are definitely going to make it back there, but probably not too soon. We saw Kristen's sister, Paige, and brother-in-law, Joe, as well as their kids, Joey, Andrew, Mike, and Becca who had recently moved there. Hawaii was absolutely wonderful.

The next slideshow will be of our family reunion in Yellowstone with Kristen's family, so check back because you never know when we'll update the slideshow!

By the way you can click on any picture to see it bigger.

The Move to Champaign, IL

My sister Amber came out with us, she rode with me and the twins while Steve drove the moving truck, and it was so much fun! She helped us so much and we are so grateful that she came out with us! On our way out, we stayed in Fort Collins, CO, where my sister Kendall and brother Theron live with their families and we were able to spend some time with them, which was so fun! We then continued on, staying the next night in Missouri, and then stopping to see the Carthage Jail and Nauvoo, and then finally arrived in Champaign. It was a really long trip, (and very emotional on my end), but we made it and we love it!

We're going to go kind of backwards. Here are pictures of our house here in Champaign. We haven't completely finished painting and putting pictures, drapes, shelves, etc., but we love it! Sorry, there's a ton of pictures, but you know me, perfectionist that I am, can't leave anything out! (It's a curse)

Living Room

Hallway to garage and laundry room/bathroom

We took the mirror off our dresser and hung it in our living room, just in case some of you were wondering. (Or maybe you weren't...) We're almost done!

Hey Everyone! So I've finally gotten around to loading all of our pictures, so now I can finally post them! Yay! Anyway, so here they are

Champaign

What a crazy last couple of months. We made it to Champaign. I'm going through law school orientation and so far I think that I'm in the right place. We are setting up our new house. We'll take some pictures and post them. Don't worry, more pictures of the twins will be posted too! Stay tuned, we'll update soon.
