Getting ready for the Holidays...

Right after Moss and I moved in I decided I didn't want to put the Christmas tree away instead we would just put it up. Moss thought it was a little too earlier, but I just started to put it up and he joined in eventually. Don't worry we are not skipping over Thanksgiving, I have been talking about Thanksgiving for like the last month saying ow excited I am. Moss will be glad when it is over I am pretty sure:) We are lame and just have a fake tree to put up because when I was younger I swear every year we got a real one it would die like a week before Christmas and my mom would vacuum up the needles and for the rest of the year every time she vacuumed it would smell like old Christmas tree needles. Needless to say we enjoy our non-smelling tree:)
Once we had figured out how to put it together we worked hard to shape all the branches to make it look a little real.
Next we added on the lights...oh so beautiful:)We then added on some ornaments, the first one we put on was one that I found at TJ max a few days ago and it says "Our first Christmas 2007" on it. Last year we looked around forever for one and couldn't find one but oddly enough I found one this year. Its not the most beautiful one but it will work:)We then added on all the red and silver ornaments...
Last but not least we added on our "angel" to top it off! Ok, it is actually a monkey that Moss made when he was little but we think it works really good:)
At last we were all finished!We then set up our sweet Lego Nativity Set that we are pretty sure is the sweetest Nativity scene ever. Sometimes Moss just plays around with it...

Moving...such a joy:)

We are finally all settled in minus a few random boxes that will need our attention someday. Last Wednesday Bonnie and I loaded up the trailor full of all our crap. Mostly Bonnie did all of the work since I am not in the best shape to be doing that. Bonnie used to love that Moss had all sorts of books but now I think she has changed her mind after hauling them all out of the house. On Thursday night Moss and his brothers and a friend loaded up all of our furniture into a big trailor and we were already to start moving in the next day. We were suppose to start moving at like 9 but the people who's house we were moving into had A LOT of stuff and so it didn't happen until 11 and then they still had stuff in here so we just moved in the furniture and waited around. They didn't get finshed until about 10 that night and even then there was still some random stuff here. It was a little frustrating that is for sure and I am glad that Moss and I don't have too much crap. Finally on Friday morning I went out and started to unload the trailor it was going to take a long time with just me but I was going to do it and make Moss so happy. Well about an hour into it and only about 15 boxes out Bonnie called and volunteered to come over and bring my dad. He didn't know we were moving whoops. So after they got here it went a lot faster and was alot easier on me:) I don't know what I would of done with-out Bonnie these last months because she has basically moved us the last two times. THANKS BONNIE! She even bought us some smelly things to put in the house since it seemed a little stuffy in here. The house has turned out to be not too bad, after we replaced about 20 light bulbs you can acutally see what is going on in here and since we don't have near as much stuff you can actually see the house and its pretty nice. Here are a few pictures of moving out and getting set up here:)

Packing:)



The New House...

Our Engagement Anniversary

Two years ago yesterday Moss ask me to marry him! I can't believe its been two whole years, in lot of way it seems like it was only a few months ago. It's crazy how time flies. On Wednesday November 14th 2006 Moss and I were given some Jazz tickets so we headed up north for a little mid week trip. I thought it was going to be awhile still until he proposed so I didn't think anything too exciting was going to happen. We went to the Jazz game and had lots of fun and then stayed the night at Moss sisters house. The next morning we went to temple square since I had never been there before. We walked around it for along time and then went to the conference center. Moss got some text from some of his guy friends that said So?!?!?! and things like that, I tend to get really really excited about things and then when they don't happen I get way sad about it so I convinced myself it wasn't going to happen. Before we were about to head out Moss said lets walk around the temple on more time. So we went and sat on a bench and I then thought he was going to do it so I kept looking away giving him a chance to get down on his knees and whip out the ring. Finally we started to talk about getting married and I said yeah well it will be like five years and he said what if I don't want to wait five years and he got down and asked me. I said yes and didn't even notice the ring cause I was so excited. After a hug and Kiss he put it on my finger and its been pretty much bliss since then... well you know what I mean:)

Yesterday Moss said he needed to get something at Summit and when he came back he had roses for me and ask me if I still wanted to be married to him. I said I guess... He is so cute to do something like that:)

30 weeks...and oh by the way we are moving AGAIN!


I am 30 weeks along and still getting huge, the best part is that next week we get to move. Just so you know moving while pregnant is not so much fun. You can't pick up anything because your belly pokes out so far that there is no way to carry it and you are already having a hard enough time breathing with your lungs getting pushed up your throat. Other than that though I would suggest it to every Mom-to-be. We are moving out to Washington fields, its a little but bigger house, which doesn't really matter right now but it does have a back yard so that will be good. The plan is to keep us there until after the baby is born so we can get settled a little, but I am pretty sure moving with a baby will be awesome:) Oh well we get to live in nice houses for cheap and don't really have enough time to get too much crap built up before we move. I figured we would not be here long so I didn't decorate hardly at all so I am happy for that. We also didn't unload too many of Moss' billion books so that helped. I just want to get going on the moving so I can get out my Christmas tree and have some fun with the holidays. I don't have any pictures of the house but I will post some when I do.

We finally have a Jeep again!

Yesterday Moss and I bought our stroller. We have looked around a lot and compared many of them and finally settle on this Jeep Urbain Terrain one. Not many stores around here have good jogging strollers so it was hard to find but we finally did at K-mart. We decided to not go for the travel system thing cause we wanted something a little more intense.The cool thing is that the stroller is green and black just like our car seat and the car seat actually fits in the stroller pretty nicely. We loaded up our stroller and headed to Moss parents house to put it all together!Moss get right to work and was really excited to put it together. I watched and ate a casadilla.
He even took the time to read the instructions:)
After only a few steps the stroller was put together and ready for use. We are both really excited about it. It's really sweet, it even has shocks. You will also notice the little steering wheel that the babe can play with. It even makes a little honking sound when you push the horn, after awhile I am sure it will get annoying but oh well... We took a few quick laps around the house and were very please.I practiced my running a little bit...I really like our intense the shield thing is, I could go running in like snow and the babe would be protected I am pretty sure:)
We even got a stunt double to test it out for us, we do hope though that our kid is not as hairy and doesn't pop out with a tail. He loved to ride around the house and didn't even try to jump out. We ended up having to take him out so we could pack up and head home.
To compare this was our first jeep, other than the color they are quite similar I think.
