WE MOVED.....WHAT???

Yes....it is true. We moved yesterday. What???? I know....who would of thought we would ever move out of our beloved red brick house? Not us.....We are sooo sooo sooo sad, but really excited for the change and good rent! We did a little switch-a-roo with our cousins, Nate & Dessi, and moved into their brand-spankin' new basement apartment in Hidden Oaks, and they moved into our lil' house. We just found out Sunday and moved in yesterday so it was quite the quicky and quite a pain the butt as well. We are now living out of boxes. You all know how that goes...it sucks to reorganize, but it will be nice to be all settled before school starts next week (tear).
PS - thanks everyone for all the help :)
We're gonna miss:
-Living on the BUSIEST street in American Fork, and having to wait 10 minutes every morning to pull out of the driveway.
-People stoppin' by because they saw our cars were home & the lights were on.
-Constantly putting DRAIN-O in the tub and sink.
-Watching the washer the entire cycle so the drain won't overflow and flood our kitchen (has happened many times)
-Emptying the bowl underneath the kitchen sink drain every week because of the leakage.
-Having our mail be on the floor in the kitchen when I get home from work (we have a nice little hole in the wall for the mail)
-Living right in the middle of EVERYTHING - we love it!
-The perfect spot to sit for the Steel Days Parade (Okay....we will still sit there with Nate & Dessi next year)
-Our primary class in the 8th ward with those crazy (seriously crazy), but adorable little 5 year olds.
-The horrible paint job we did when we were engaged.
-All the memories from our first 2 years of marriage.
Seriously....We're already missing it - Am I being lame?
ON A HAPPIER NOTE....
I got my camera yesterday also. It was the best worst day ever. I haven't even had a chance to take a picture with it or mess around with it at all. It will probably be a few more days, but get excited for some new pics!!!

Why are you guys moving? Are you moving into the Carson's basement? There is something about that cute little brick house that makes you fall in love with it, even with all the problems. Change is good though.

Maybe you shouldn't let your cousins read this post so they don't know about all those little problems :) Haha, too funny though. We've moved around so much this summer that we are basically pros at it, so too bad we aren't home to help you guys!

oh don't think I called it quits when I took a pretty hard swing into the ground...
more because I didn't want to ruin my bro-in-laws driver...but also because I could feel the vibrations ringing through my bones.

YOu are both cuties to make the switch...moving is always a hassle, but it's fun to clean up and clear out. Hope all goes well wish we could be there to help!

WOW that was fast! We didn't know you were moving so soon, we would have helped you if we would have known. Sorry, I mean I guess it was our Anniversary and all yesterday but that would have been romantic helping you move :) Change is good- and it is a really cute place. We will have to have a PARTY!

What?? So sad - now I can't just walk over when I'm up visiting:( I know I've been a bad commenter lately. I've been so busy but I check blogs & want to comment but I'm hurrying so I always think I'll come back. You need to post pictures of your cute new place, now that you have a new camera. Yeah - Stacey is gorgeous. She didn't even have make up on & she still looked so pretty. She told me I looked like you. Haha - you're way too cute. So I thought it was a compliment!! Good luck unpacking everything. That's the worst part about moving. It sucks!!

I know it really is kinda sad...you're little red brick house! Your new place is SO nice though! I think you guys will really love it!

Good job reading through your camera manual already. Most people don't even do that! That is what I did, I sat down with the manual and my camera and tried out every little thing, trying to understand it. It is totally a foreign language at first, but you will get the hang of it quick. This may sound dumb, but the best thing to do is just get out there and practice practice practice! Can't wait to see some pictures! I think you are going to be a natural for sure. I'm no pro, but ask me if you get stuck!

Fun for you guys! Now Chase and I will come over EVERY time we go visit my parents! Haha You are going to be in my parents ward. That should be fun!
