We MOVED!

Please look past the mess and piles and boxes everywhere because we are still moving, but I promise I will send out new ones once I get the boxes unpacked and the house decorated.

We decided that we are done commuting everyday, so we decided to move. Kenzies school, dance, gymnastics, and Ethans preschool are all at least 35 to 45 minutes away. As well as most malls, shopping centers and most stores. I basically have been living in my car and I felt like I was turning into a crazy person. So we decided to move to Murrieta. I am so much happier here it is a way better community and a great family town. Murrieta has an amazing school district and best of all I walk Kenzie across the street to school. We were able to keep her in the same school we started her in and best of all I just found out that her teacher is LDS and in our new ward! He has been an amazing teacher but it just makes me feel even better knowing that he has the same beliefs. Our new ward seems really great, tons of young families, big, and everyone was really friendly. I have already met more neighbors in two weeks than I ever met at my old house in 4 years. Ethans preschool is 10 minutes away and Austins work is only 10 minutes away as well! We live in a great neighborhood and I couldn't be happier. I love our new house ... however I do not like moving. Every time I walk out to the garage to grab another box to unpack I swear they multiple by the 100s. I think it may be time to get rid of a few things we don't need! I never want to move again! Anyway we are going to rent out our other house until the market goes back up so we can eventually sell it. Our new house is 5 bedrooms, 4 1/2 baths 4 car garage and is 3900 square feet. The nice thing is there is no one behind us just a mountain and no one in front of us just a park, baseball field and the elementary school.
I will post more pictures later when I actually have the house decorated ... I am just waiting for my sister Shalyn aka: Mrs. Pottery Barn to come down and decorate my house...hint hint!! Also, thanks to the Petersons for helping us move for the past two weeks...you guys have been a ton of help and we can't thank you enough! Also, a special thanks to my mom and dad for making this move possible we couldn't have don't it without you, We love you!!! Anyone who needs or wants or new address just email me and I will get it to you. Guess that means I need to walk out front and write down my address!

The house looks amazing, especially the kitchen. I HATE moving with a passion, but I'd suffer through it if I got to move there :)! We were actually just out in SD. We were only there for about a week. I know I am a total jerk! It was such short trip, I would have loved to get together. We were just trying to cram so much into such little time. I did see your pops though when stopping in to get Dan. I need your new address please!
