Young Love... and the dreaded packing...

Ok... i know he's only 3 (4 next month...) but Coen has found the love of his life... or so you'd think by the way they act together!!! This weekend Coen's girlfriend, McKenna had her 4th bday... yup my little man is going for the older women... Here's some pics from her party at Thanksgiving Point! Chris and I were already planning on taking Coen down there because of the New Baby Animals Bday Party... but McKenna's party just so happened to be down there too!! We were so glad that we could make it! They wouldn't stop dancing long enough to get a clear pic... but here you go! haha
In other news... Coen and I are moving this week!! I'm pretty sad to be leaving our condo... I love it! But it's WAY too expensive for just 1 income... and there's not really room to get a roommate... so... we put out the word... We got 2 offers... One to live with my best friend and Coen's best friend (Mel and Ethan) for the summer... the second was to live with a family from church... both have major positives and a very few negatives... the selling point was that we'd get to stay longer with the family from church! So we're headed for Draper on Thursday!!!!! Right now I'm in the midst of packing up the condo... it really really really sucks!!!!! As you can see (oh and this is only what needed to be stashed in the laundry room... the closets are full of boxes and totes too) we have a lot of crap!!! I've been getting rid of things over the past few weeks... thank heavens!!Here is the lovely family I'm going to be living with... Ben and Jodie... and their 5 kids... Christian, Gabe, Luke, Victoria, and Emme...

And here's their new gorgeous house!!! I'm so excited to move in!! it's in such a great area too!! and we're surrounded with other families from our church!! it's going to be such a blessing in mine and coen's lives!! I just hope they realize how grateful and appreciative we truly are :)

  3. Coen is so cute! My nephew has a gf named Mckenna too! Must be a lot of cute girls with kenna in the name.. :) I'm glad you guys are doing well. Looks like you are going to live with a wonderful family. I'm sorry about packing though. Packing is the worst. Give Coen a Birthday hug for me!
