Harrison's Birthday





Harrison celebrated his birthday in the middle of our move. The poor boy has had a couple of busy birthdays in a row. Last year his birthday was the day after Haylee's surgery in the middle of a heat wave. This year it was in the middle of moving chaos. But as always he is a good sport about it and next year we'll have to make it up to him some how. He did get his favorite food when me and Kevin took him out to lunch for ribs - so according to him it wasn't a complete bust. He always looks on the bright side. I feel so lucky to be this boy's mom.

We are In!

We are in but not unpacked. Our garage is overwhelmingly full of boxes that I don't know how I can possibly ever empty them all, let a lone find a place for it. How did we accumulate so much stuff? We are beyond exhausted but grateful. My mom and Chuck came last week and helped us so much. I don't know how I can ever repay their generosity. And Tyson and his family came up for the weekend to help too. Not to mention our friends from the ward who helped us move on Saturday. We are sadly sans blinds (long angry fist-shaking story). They won't arrive until a week from Thursday. In the meantime I am noticing a million little things that need to be fixed and freaking out about scuff marks on the baseboards. All very silly stuff indeed - but did I mention I'm exhausted. It has been quite a year so far but we are in the home stretch! Soon we will be open for visitors! I'll post pictures soon.
