new job, moving, and christmas

So I know it's only been a few weeks since my last post, but it feels like forever!
(there it is again, my obsession with dang blogging.)
And in the last few weeks, a ton has happened.

About two weeks before Christmas James was offered a job with Boeing.  He interned with them over the summer in the Engineering Dept. which was awesome.  And then they hired him on for some temp work in the Fabrication Dept. and now...they hired him on full time.
We were so excited! 

We packed up our townhouse, said good bye to Logan, and moved into a little house in Davis County.  Yeah, you read it right...a HOUSE!  There is so much space, and a backyard, and a basement with more space.  I love it.  Even though I'm so happy about this new house and job....I miss Logan, terribly.  I miss my friends, my playgroups, the library, the fact that I was 5 minutes from EVERYTHING, and I miss the slow pace way of life there.  I didn't realize how busy it was outside of Logan. 
(Pictures of the house will come later...still trying to make it look INSANELY cute!)

Our Christmas was awesome!  I tend to worry about having to travel around on Christmas day.
I grew up just spending the day at home eating food and playing with all the new stuff we got.
But we had a really fun day.

The kids got new jammies on Christmas Eve, (geez where did that start?) we had a delicious breakfast, opened presents, got ready and drove to James's parents house.  We had lunch there, opened more presents and then drove to my sisters. (see...the traveling) We ate more food and played games.  And then finally...we went home and crashed.
It was fun to see as many people as we did and wow...my kids got so many new toys :)

And that's it :)

  2. Sounds like a great Christmas and congrats on the new job and house! So exciting!

    Side note-my hair in that picture: Super easy. It's just a french twist on both sides back into a ponytail. Takes like 2 minutes.

  4. I miss you!!! Thanks for your text the other day. Made me happy. We have to come and visit you guys. I need to snuggle your girl! She's getting so grown up looking! :)

    PS I wish I came up with the idea of giving jammies on Christmas Eve. I would be rich. Because you have to pay that person to use the idea, right? hahaha
