We Moved Again!

Yes its true we moved again! We are now in Omaha Nebraska, so we are making our way closer to Utah. The opportunity came up to move to Omaha and we were pretty much done in Iowa so we thought why not. It was an easy move and everything is pretty much the same except we are in Nebraska. I haven't had alot of time to explore but it seems nice enough, not really a pretty city though. Regan is doing well selling here so we are happy about that. It is official though that we will be home to Utah by October 14! So only a few more weeks. It is crazy to think that we have lived in Idaho, Utah, Minnesota, Iowa and now Nebraska all within the last year! Ha ha! We love it and it is great to see so much while we can.

Our Future Home!

This is our future townhouse! It is just the foundation but we are hoping it will be done in time for Christmas! That is the plan. You can see in this picture that that is the Okura Temple right across the street! How cool is that.
Another picture of our foundation! We CANNOT wait to be in our new home.

Welcome!

So on Sunday Regan and I and all of the other married couples from Pinnacle went to our new ward on Sunday. It was a really big ward. We went through all 3 meetings with not one person saying a single word to us or not getting a single smile. I tried smiling at people but normally when you are new someone says something to you to welcome you. When we got home I just thought that maybe it was cause the ward was really big. But then on Monday for Labor Day the ward was having a Breakfast and we decided to go along with some other couples. We were pretty excited but felt a little awkard going since we didn't know anyone. Again, not one word or smile in our direction! It was so uncomfortable being there. We got the weird stares like "who are you" but no one bothered to say hi. It was really sad and we felt really bad. We've always had good experiences going to new wards and meeting new people. We have always said that out of state wards are so welcoming. So I am just saying to all you to make sure that you welcome new people in your ward or say hello to them or even just smile at them. It really helps and makes them feel better. I haven't given up hope yet on this ward and I will put forth more of an effort on Sunday. I don't mean to sound upset, I just wanted to say be welcoming!Ü

Goodbye Minnesota...Hello Iowa!

We made it! Yesterday we made the 3 1/2 hour drive to West Des Moines, Iowa and said goodbye to Minnesota. It was a nice drive and we made it safely. This is definitely going to be a new experience for us. We are going to be staying in an Extended Stay, it is like a hotel but with a little kitchen. It really isn't bad and I got creative with finding places to put all of our stuff. The only thing that isn't so great about them are the people who stay in them...interesting, very interesting. But I am glad that I have my friends out here! Today we went exploring and it really is a nice area. Regan had a really big day-3 sales!! So we are off to a good start in Iowa. I will post some pictures of our place once I get everything put away.

My Green Thumb

Well at the beginning of the summer Regan and I planted 3 tomato plants and  1 red pepper plant. We wanted to try and be thrifty and to grow something on our own. It has been so fun to watch our plants grow. The first time that I saw a little green tomato I screamed because I was so excited! For the last couple weeks we have enjoyed our little tomatoes...they really aren't that big but they are so so good! We are just waiting for our peppers to turn red and they are almost there. So I had to show of our plants because I am quite proud of them. 

Just An Update

So I know that it has been forever since I have posted anything! Really I haven't had anything to post...we do the same thing everday. We wake up and go to gym, come home and get ready for the day, go to our 12:00 work meeting, then Regan leaves for work and I start on paperwork, then when I finish I hang out with the girls and maybe clean the apartment, then I cook dinner and Regan comes home and we eat, then we watch some Andy Griffith and I fall asleep on the couch until Regan wakes me up to go to bed and then we do it all over again the next day. Now don't get me wrong I'm not complaining at all, we have had a really great summer and have had alot of fun and met some really great friends but this an average day for us and so not a lot happens. So I am just going to post something even though it is hard for me not to post something with a picture or about an event. I just wanted to give an update on things for us in Minnesota. We are doing really well! This is our last week in Minnesota...sad but happy at the same time. But we aren't done selling yet. We are on our way to Des Moines, Iowa for another month and a half. I know I know we are crazy but we both felt that continuing the selling thing was right and worth it. I am going to keep doing the office work and Reg will keep doing his thing. He has done really well this summer and works so hard! We are really excited to eventually move back to Utah because we are trying to buy a townhouse! So exciting! It will be done being built in December so that is one reason why we are staying in Iowa until October. Having our own place is all that I can think about! Minnesota has been good to us and we've had some good times here...who know we might be back next summer...ha ha! But now we are on to next adventure. Stay tuned.

More Wedding Pics!!!

Poor Daddy...he's so tired.

GQ brother

Amanda and Travis are officially married!! They have waited four years and the day finally came! They make the best couple and we are so happy to have Travis in our family! They are truly in love and the wedding was perfect. Regan and I flew home for the week to be there and it was so fun to be with the family and be there for that special occasion. Everything went pretty well...except for the eclair fiasco, Amanda and Travis getting in a wreck on the way to the temple ceremony and a few other minor glitches.:) I was so happy to be there and I think I have the best sisters and brother ever! This last picture is a funny story so I will tell it... Jamie told Travis to do this and he was totally up for it. We bought him some really, really big ugly underwear and when he went to take off Amanda's garter he pulled out the underwear instead and held them up. Amanda about died, her face was priceless! It was hirlarious! Oh how we love to pull pranks on each other. Anyways I am super happy for them and I love them to pieces!
