Home Sweet Home

Yes it's true folks. We are back in Utah and here to stay...well at least for a few months :) We made a last minute decision on Wednesday morning and decided to leave on Thursday morning. So we drove all day yesterday. It's a 13 hour drive but it went by pretty fast and bless Regan's heart he drove all the way. It was so nice to see our family yesterday night and we excited to see everyone as soon as we can. So I promise there will be some updates soon and some pictures as soon as I can find my camera cord buried in all of stuff!

To have or not to have?

So because Regan and I have moved so much and traveled alot it has really made us realize what we can live without. When we move for the summers we only take what can fit our car. Each year we try to take less than the year before because it is such a hassle. We still have a whole closet at home full of wedding presents that we have never used and we have been married over 2 years! When we get our new place its going to be like Christmas just being able to use those gifts. Lets just say that I am now an expert packer. This summer I was so proud of our packing! So here is the list of some of the things I have lived without this summer (and fall):

• A good mattress!
• Our own furniture
• Decorations for our place (frames, pictures, etc)
• Most of my kitchen supplies- cookie pan, kitchen aid, rice cooker, etc. (cooking with one pan and one pot can be quite the experience)
• 1/2 of my clothes ( I am really missing my fall clothing right now)

Although we don't have alot out here with us, it really has taught us what is important in life and that it is not all about the things you own. I am grateful for the experiences that we have had together. Sometimes we laugh to think about where we live right now but we know it is only going to make our first home that much more wonderful. Here are some things that we did have this summer:

• Each other!!!
• New friends to keep us sane
• A car that runs smoothly
• Successful jobs
• Seeing new places
• Being a part of great wards
• Creating fun memories that we will remember forever!

We are excited to come back to Utah and see our family and friends! It is going to be a big change for us but change is good.

So it Turns Out...

That I never update my blog. I really didn't realize this until I looked at the dates on my posts! And I hate it when people never update their blogs... but now I can't can I? Unless... I start posting more. So I am saying to you now that I am going to start doing better at posting on my blog cause I know that it is a good thing, like writing in my journal or scrapbooking. I am recommitting to my blog. It is not even News Years and I feel like I am making a new resolution. But here goes, I am going to give it try.
