Drum Roll Please....... No really drum roll




So let's test your temple knowledge. Can anyone tell me which temple this is? You may be asking yourself why I would want to know this, but it's because come next summer we will live very close to this temple. That's right we're moving.


Jason got offered the spot in Utah. We are very excited to move back out west nearer to family (only a 10 hr drive away). It'll be so nice to be so close to the temple as well. We'll also get to see some old friends who are currently living out there. I can't wait to take the kids skiing for the first time, to build a snowman or maybe a whole snowman family, to have snowball fights (Faith can't wait to throw one at Jason and I'm sure he'll love throwing them at all of us), to go camping and not feel like I'm melting, to get to see family on a more regular basis (especially our siblings who we hardly ever see).

With all this excitement comes some sadness. In the 10 yrs. (OK it'll be 10 yrs. on the 16th) that Jason and I have been married we have only lived close to family once (only for a year) so we have had to make a new "family" every time we moved. Being here as long as we have we have been able to build a group of friends who really have become family. It is hard to leave them. They have been there for us whenever we needed them, like when the toilet overflows and floods the house, or when you need someone to watch your kids so you can go to the doctor, or my personal favorite help you have a baby on your couch, just to name a few. We have been given so much love here. We were blessed more than we deserved with the friends we have made here. Thank you for everything.

So have you figured out where in Utah we're going? See picture below.
