"Throughout our lives, we must deal with change. Some changes are welcome; some are not. There are changes in our lives which are sudden, such as the unexpected passing of a loved one, an unforeseen illness, the loss of a possession we treasure. But most of the changes take place subtly and slowly. Day by day, minute by minute, second by second we went from where we were to where we are now. The lives of all of us, of course, go through similar alterations and changes. The difference between the changes in my life and the changes in yours is only in the details. Time never stands still; it must steadily march on, and with the marching come the changes. This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now. Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family. One day each of us will run out of tomorrows. " Thomas S. Monson

A new adventure...

This is crazy. We may be out of our minds or at least nick is out of his mind for wanting to move us to cedar city at this time of year???? but part of me is so excited for a new family adventure to start!
We decided to make the move to cedar since nick will be heading up a company there and I don't see why I would ever want to make him drive 2+ hours every day back and forth, that's 2 hours of him not being with his family/boys/wife..I couldn't do that to him or the boys.
I LOVE living right here in the home we bought right before we got married, its the only place we have ever owned and lived (except when we lived in Hawaii of course) but this house is our first house, our life started here, our boys were born and came home to this house, we have so many great memories here. I LOVE my neighbors, I LOVE kaylins preschool and he LOVES it so much and is learning so much that i hate the thought of him having to leave it, I love the ward we have always been in, I love living by my family, but its time for something new.

We are buying a house in cedar in the only place i love there which is making this a Whole lot easier..the one this that is making it pretty easy to move is the new SPACE and ROOM TO BREATH i will have and we will not be so crammed in a little space anymore!

This will be a big change for me, and i don't do very well with big change...i really don't like the snow and even more I HATE TO DRIVE IN IT, but nick cant be more excited to have it snowing right in his backyard, and its nice to see him excited about it. I have to look at the bigger picture through this whole thing..my family is everything to me, i will do anything for us to be together more and make more memories together and this is just one of those times..and that makes me excited!

I was not ready to let go of our first place as I'm pretty attached to it even though i do want a bigger house, i just don't want it to not be mine anymore so after i begged nick and pestered him over and over we decided to rent it for a while just in case we head back this way, i can come back to this house!

Here is to a new Family Adventure!

good advice!

Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib, not from his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal! Under the arm to be protected, & next to the heart to be loved.
