We're MOVING!

We can hardly believe it either, but we are moving to Plano, TX. What the...what?!?! We'll be relocating on someone else's dime in mid-February. It is really sudden actually. Ben hasn't been really looking for a new job. This practically fell in his lap and it should be a really amazing opportunity for Ben and his career. He'll be working for HNTB in the corporate ventures division doing engineering design stuff, that is about all I know. You'll have to ask him on the details.

It still hasn't quite sunk in that we are moving. Idaho has been a really nice place to live and I am really going to miss the friends I've made up here and our great neighbors. I can't believe that we're doing this again, relocating to a new place. We don't feel quite ready to leave. I think it'll be hard, but hopefully a lot of fun. At least this time I'm not 8 months pregnant! It is going to be hard being so far away from Utah too. It is like a 20+ hour drive to Utah or California, so we won't get a chance to do those trips as often :(

So Texas... we drove through it when I was about 10 years old on a family road trip and that is the only experience I have of being in Texas. Have any of you guys ever been to the Dallas area?It actually seems like a really nice place to live. The thing that really makes me happy about going is the mild winters, oh yeah, they do have cold times, but just last week it was in the mid 60's. So I won't complain about that. We still hope to make it back to Utah someday, being without family and our awesome friends is really hard. But for now we're off on another adventure (that was a little cheesy). Well there you go, our schedule is going to be crazy leading up to this move, so I thought I'd let everyone know on here.

Wish us luck :)

Bridger around Christmas

Man, Bridger seems like he's already grown since this video. The cute thing about Bridger is that he talks a little like Daffy Duck.

Hope you enjoy these videos, I've had a couple requests since a few of you out there haven't seen Brandon and Bridger in a while.

Brandon Loves to Talk

Here is Brandon over the Christmas Vacation.

Warning: This video is like 3 minutes long, I just thought it was cute and thought some of you would like it.

It's been a long time

It has been awhile, but we are still here and doing well.

We spent the most of holidays at home. Thanksgiving was nice, but we missed being with family. We decided to go to a movie for the first time all together. I was a little nervous that Bridger wouldn't last a whole movie sitting still and staying quiet. Both, Brandon and Bridger actually did surprisingly well, the popcorn & candy helped - a lot. It was really fun. We saw Ponyo, it was really cute.

It was really nice staying home for Christmas. Brandon and Bridger had an awesome Christmas morning. They loved everything! Christmas is so much more fun now that Brandon really gets it. Ben made his delish gingerbread pancakes, yum! The next day we headed down to Utah. We saw a lot of family and friends and had a really great time. Our trip was cut short because of bad weather, but it was actually really nice to come home and relax for a few days to make our vacation feel like a vacation. We went to another movie when we came back that was awesome, it's called Fantastic Mr. Fox. The kids really liked it and Ben and I thought it was really clever. Great family flick!

My brain is a little foggy because I took some Nyquil last night, so I hope this post doesn't reflect too much of my fogginess :)

Christmas Morning, chowing on sweets and playing with new toys.

Batman PJ's are a big hit. Pillows at the bottom of the stairs made a great landing for batman.

Gingerbread decorating.
