Life in the Sticks

I was trying to set a record for longest run without a post...how did I do? Well, Caleb left me a comment saying it was time to post, so here it is. It's been so long that I don't even know where I left off...oh yes, I remember...our unfinished house. Well, our unfinished house is now our finished house. We moved in about 2 months ago and we love it! It's finally decorated and all our own. We have room to move around and then some. The only drawback is living out in the middle of nowhere which results in endless commutes to pretty much everywhere, including the grocery store...I'm not even kidding! We can't complain though because...We have a house! We are thoroughly enjoying entertaining family and friends in our new domain.

In other news, Bella is growing like a weed. I'm a bad parent with no pictures to show because of my silly camera but Randy is a good Pops so you can check out some pictures over there. She's talking like crazy, her favorite phrase is shouting "Right there" while pointing to pretty much whatever is in her sight. It's lots of fun. Most of what she says is intelligible but we like to think she knows exactly what she's saying. Also, she's a giant...no, really, it's true. She's in the 110th percentile for her height and just keeps getting taller. I think it's the pickles we have been feeding her. It's hard to believe she is almost one. On St. Patty's Day Baby Bella will be one! We will be celebrating with her old pals...Nana, Pops, Grammy, Uncle Casey, Uncle Nathan, Aunt Ali and some friends. Can't wait, any excuse to go to Disneyland, right?

Oh yeah, Kyle and I are alive and kicking too in case anyone was interested. I will try to post some pictures later, let me work on it for a couple more months.

Wow!! You finally updated! We're so proud of you. Good to hear things are going well with Bella. When you do get around to posting pictures, post some of the new house too. Tell Bella I said "hi". :) She's so cute!

Oh sure. If you REALLY loved Disneyland, you would have delivered her there. Thanks for posting.

I think that we will definitely have to get Bella & Emily together at Disneyland!! What could be better. My sister was hoping that I would deliver at Disneyland. They might have given Emily a lifetime pass. We would like to see pictures of your new house.

Brenda Walker said...

Wow, I can't believe that you posted again. You will have to get some pictures of the house up here so we can check it out!

If you're going for the longest time without posting, you have to wait for a couple more years. It was good to hear from you and I'm thinking that someone should pay for thirtyish tickets to Disneyland so that everyone could go.

We are glad to hear you guys are enjoying the new house. I want to see pictures! We need to come out sometime to visit everyone and meet Bella!

The Grandparents said...

Thanks for posting! We are glad we got to see your house, even if we did have to drive over an hour to get there. It was worth it. My only complaint is that we don't get to see you as often now. Love you.

Alison said...

I am so excited about going to Disneyland with you guys and getting to see Bella again. Glad you updated!
