Well, it's official!!!!!

As of last Friday, our home was officially sold, signed, and closed. It is now a done deal!

While I am a little sad, it is such a relief to have that huge burden lifted!! Our realtor was amazing, and bent over backwards in every way trying to help us! Let me know if you ever need her number! :-)

For now we will stay where we are at. We aren't going to build or buy for a while, until we are absolutely sure what we want to do. We are feeling out this little town, and county of Sanpete, so we don't want to make any final decisions.

But at least now that house doesn't stand in our way!!!

Mormons or Catholics?

I got an interesting email the other day. Eric thought it would be cool if I posted it here! It really is a great read, and definately something for many to think about.

If you wish, leave a comment and let us know what you think!

Here is the link:

Even reading the comments is fun!

CentraCom Summer Party at Tuacahn!

With Eric's new job (only been a year), we are finding that they really spoil their employees. (At least more than any other job we've ever had)!
For his summer work party this past weekend, they bought us all tickets to the Tuacahn outdoor theater in St. George to see Les Miserable! It was awesome! They also provided the dinner that you can get with the show, and hotel rooms at the Holiday Inn! Eric and I had never been to the theater, or to that play before so it was really neat!
I scanned in a picture from the outside of the program, and then a picture of one of the scenes. You cannot take any photos inside, so it was the best I could do.


Here is a picture of us outside the theater, and a couple views of the cool Southern Utah mountains!


We had a really good time, and it was a short, but much needed little getaway!
Thanks grandma & grandpa for taking care of the kids, and to Celia and her family for also helping out. We love you! :-)

New Driver's License

So my driver's license expired last April, and I just got around to getting a new one today! No real excuse, just my forgetful, lazy self. Well, that and now that we live in a smaller town you have to get used to new schedules! Most state/city offices are open Monday thru Friday from 8-5. Well, down here new rules apply. They are only open on Mondays and Thursdays, and if there happens to be a 5th Wednesday that month they are open then too.

Also down here in Sanpete they give you about 6 extra months after it is expired before you have to re-take the test, so luckily I didn't have to do that. I did have the privilege of getting my lovely photo taken (about 3 times I might add), none of which looked any better than before.

Everyone in the office was so nice, and I do have to admit, it was kind of nice being in and out of there in about 8 1/2 minutes. :-)

I am trying to get back into the swing of things, so I would really love to hear from you! I have been so stressed lately, that I layed off the book thing for a bit, but I'm ready to jump back in!!

After sending out my Fall newsletters, the excitement is returning! There was a reason I joined this company....I really LOVE these books!!!
