About three things i am sure...

House, House and New Moon! Our lifes recently have consisted of nothing but working on our house! We were out there from sun up to sun down for three days straight over thanksgiving break. Our great families took time to come help us and finally, we got all of our framing done. the first part to our roof was set yesterday. Its so exciting to finally see some progress on our very own house! Also I of course found time to sneak away and go see New Moon on opening night with my sister Wendy! We had to wait in line in the cold but it was worth it! Overall we are doing good and are just super busy and trying not to freeze our little hiny's off. I have been busy editing pictures which i will post some soon and i also started designing christmas cards. We are looking forward to a break at christmas time and way ahead to april when our houses will finallly be done! enjoy the pics!

Gravel on our house!

we finally got our gravel done. We have our cement slab done also but i dont have pictures of it yet.

Belated birthday post!

For my birthday my sweet husband surprised me with a weekend getaway! We left early from building on saturday and headed out to heber. We stayed at a resort in midway called the Homestead. It has a big crater that created a hot spring in it. It was cool to look at but we did not get in. The lighting in the cave was aweful for pictures, but we attempted it anyways! That night we went on the Heber Creeper which is a haunted train ride through provo canyon. Then the next day was sunday so we moseyed our way back to salt lake and stayed at the kimball that night. Then we went shopping on monday and then came back to logan. Nate scheduled me a massage which was fabulous! and then we went out to my families house to eat dinner. The night finished off with a family outing at the corn maze! It was a great birthday. I just wish my baby Connor could have been here to celebrate with us.

We have concrete!!!!

well some of it at least! Earlier last week, they poured the footings to our house, and then the end of last week we got our foundation poured! Its so exciting to see some progress being made! Saturday we got to start insulating our foundation with blue styrofoam. We will post more when there is more progress!

Were sorry to report....

I guess its just not time for Connor to be a big brother. For those of you that knew that we were expecting baby # 2, We jumped the gun in announcing. We are no longer pregnant. We unfortunately had a miscarriage. The bean had stopped developing at about 4.5 weeks so it had never really developed into an actual baby. We just thought that everyone should know, so we can avoid awkward conversations about this pregnancy later. Thanks for all your love and prayers.
