Changes are good!?!

Thanks Lauren for reminding me that it has been way too long since updating the blog. What has been happening with us?

In April, Jessica and Danny visited us for a few days. It was wonderful!!!
Jessianne graduated from BYU with her Bachelor's degree in Exercise Science.

In May, we got to go visit Lauren and Turner because she graduated with her Master's degree in Education. The week before that, on Jessianne's 22nd birthday to exact, we signed papers on a new house and moved in. We now live at 479 West 1810 North, Orem, UT 84057 with the same phone numbers. 4 days after we moved into our new house, Dad decided it was time for them to go home. I am so proud of him for going to blind school to learn how to manage and cope so he can take care of Mom. And Mom is making great progress!!! Together, they are figuring out how to manage on their own. What courage it takes to start a new life when most folks their age would give up and move into a home!

The camera got packed when we moved and I haven't discovered it yet. But unpacking is still happening so there is a chance I will find it soon :) Then I can post photos of the house.

I am liking the new house a lot! I am still adjusting and trying to find the right places to put things away. That is hard for me because my brain doesn't think in a very orderly way. But I am deciding where I want a few things, like some of the art and some of the photos.
