Quick overview

I don't even know where to begin!  The #1 thing that has happened to our family is that we have moved.  It wasn't something we thought was going to happen right now, but here we are!  Travis and I decided in the middle of January to maybe we should start looking at some rental houses, just to see if we were going to be able to find anything that a. we could afford and b. that was in the right area so the kids would stay zoned for the same schools and we could stay in our same ward.  We knew it would take a few months to find what would fit and we were definitely in no hurry.  I contacted a friend of ours of Thursday and got a list of all the rentals in our ward boundaries.  There were 4.  1 house was tiny, 2 houses were outrageously out of our budget, but 1 house surprisingly fit and was actually less that what our budget was for rent.  We called the realtor on Friday, looked at the house Friday night, filled out all the rental paperwork on Saturday, and found out Monday we had been approved.  It truly was Heavenly Father's doing. Everything fell into place.  Moving stinks though!

We are in the middle of Zion's Youth right now.  They are doing Lamb of God again and we are so excited!  Most of our family is coming to the concert, which Baylee is absolutely thrilled about.

It's basketball season right now as well.  Tori has games twice a week and practice twice a week.  She is cheer captain this year and loves "being in charge".

Kade is playing club baseball now so no little league for him this season.   Yay!

Cole wants to try something new so he is going to start cello lessons and golf.  If neither of those "fit" I'm sure he will be more than happy to go back to baseball.

Youth Conference was in January this year and it was pretty amazing if I do say so myself.  We did 10 classes on Saturday, then went to Logandale for a bonfire.  I loved every second of it, and I'm pretty sure the youth did too :)

Travis has gone back to school.  He is officially a BYUI student.  He is doing it online and hopefully will graduate in 3 years.  Right now his plan is to go into nursing.  We will see if that is where he ends up.  He is the priest quorum advisor right now and LOVES it.
