We Moved!

I always like to have an excuse for not doing a better job with my blogging. So, here's my excuse this time...we moved to St. George! We have been thinking about making the move for the past 2 years(ever since Denim took the promotion and started commuting most work days) and we finally decided it was time. So we picked one of the hardest times to move(Christmas Break) and made our way. It wasn't easy with trying to pack and clean a home, find a new one, shop for Christmas presents, plan a birthday, and celebrate an anniversary but we did it! It was hard to leave some good friends behind in Cedar but everyone here has been great and it is already starting to feel like home.
Christmas was a lot of fun despite the flu, pink eye, and some minor coughs/colds that visited us:( We played a lot of games, ate yummy food, waited for it to snow(it didn't come), looked at lights, and laughed.
We celebrated Ava's birthday over the break. She requested a pink party. So we had pink lemonade and pink cupcakes, and pink decorations too. She loves that her parties are always celebrated with plenty of family around!


We went to classic skating too. It was our kids first skating experience, might be their last too. Ava gave up on the skates about 10 minutes into it and headed for the scooter. Brooklyn persevered but had plenty of bruises to go around:)
Happy Birthday Ava Lou!

That is crazy that you moved! I bet it will be so nice for Denim not to have to make that drive every day! I can't believe how tall brooklyn is getting. Ava's party looked super cute and pink :)

That's it -- move back! We miss you guys! Every time we drive by your house, Porter asks about Ava and Crosby. I sense a park playdate to St. george in the works...
