This is the place?

Well, here we are in Utah. Well, we've been here for almost 3 weeks now, I am just now getting around to blogging about it. It is beautiful here, and even though I had an emotional break down on the way from the airport (true story), I am happy now.  We found a beautiful house with plenty of room and a gorgeous view of the lake and mountains. And though I still hold my previous statements about living in the "bubble", it isnt that bad. There...I said it. Out here in Saratoga Springs, I am kind of secluded from the hustle bustle of the city anyway. It takes a good 30 min to get to Provo.
I went to our ward last Sunday and fell in love. The people are so friendly and just have a warmth about them. I just met them and feel like I have known them alot longer. It makes me look forward to going to church every week, which is something we need.
It is taking me forever to get completely settled but for the most part we have everything put away.

Bottom line is, even though I am a little home sick and want to pack up my family/friends in Tx and take them with me, I love my life here and we need this fresh start in life. Cole's new schedule is more than I could ask for, he is home by 5 every evening. I love it. Definitely better than the previous schedule of 12-9pm every weekday and 9-9 on Sat. That is all I have known since we have been together and now that we have a sense of stability and normalcy, I can sit back, relax, and take care of my home and family. Where there once was a stressful unstable life, now there is serenity and contentment. The only down side is we dont get to travel as much and see the different sights. But hopefully that will be made up by roadtrips  and mini vacations here and there.

On a side note, we started P90X and it is kicking our trash. Cole is more dedicated than I am but I am trying. It is just a huge commitment and change in diet and exercise. We'll see what comes of it.

And as for Halloweenie, here are some pics of fun with my nieces and sister:

I will post pics of the house next time.
