our crazy life

Well since it has been about 4 months since we last blogged I guess I should update it a little. Timmy and I have been awefully busy with work, school and life in general. We just finished our third semester of school (yeah!! just one more to go people.)
The past 4 months here is a list of things that happened. Timmy's brother got married, which was an awesome experience, we were all able to go through the temple and go through a endowment setion for Nicole; in Vegas and then watch them get sealed in the St. George temple. Timmy took me to an awesome third eye blind concert; I have been wanting to see them in concert since I was in high school. It was really cool cause my sister Lena got to come we had such a great time. I turned 24; which wasn't totally exciting more or less another day passing by. My grandparents had a thirtieth anniversary party that I hosted; it was difficult to get everything ready I had some great help from my family, just wish all the family could have come, I know everyone was a little disappointed. My sweet 19 year old brother went to the MTC. This was something that I thought would be a lot easier. Watching him stand on the cirb with his 3 suitcases, wearing a new suit, he had this look on his face as if he was going to vomit. It makes them look so young. The hardest thing was watching my two brothers hug and say goodbye to eachother for the 4 years that they will be missing.
Sitting in church today I decided that Timmy and I have it pretty good. We both come from awesome close families and things in our marriage have been coming along pretty easy. So far thank goodness we have been able to live in 3 awesome places that are very inexpensive (first an awesome basement appartment, second green valley home where we basically lived free, and now at my parents house where we have been able to save.) We have also been able to save a lot of money and we have been cruising through school with awesome jobs that we both love. It makes you wonder when will our struggles come in to play? Having kids, finding jobs when we graduate? Timmy and I hope that as long as we stay doing the right things and stay close to the Lord our problems won't be that big.
On a lighter noteTimmy and I just bought our first house!! We are so excited and want to move in terribly. It is in Bloomington Hills around the park where I grew up. Our new address will be 1346 redwood tree street. cute huh? We decided that we want to update the house a little bit so we have contractors going through it right now getting bids together. We want to be in the house before Feb 1 because thats when our payments start. Sorry I don't have any pictures in yet but I will take some and post them soon. I am really excited to pick out all the tile, carpet, paint, counter tops, and cabinets. How fun is that after 3 years I finally get my own house that I can actually decorate. Even more exciting we are getting closer and closer to being able to start trying to have a family of our own.
