You know when you are so close to something you can almost feel it? Well, that is where the whole family is at as far as school is. The last day of school for Sean and the kids is this Friday. It is getting harder and harder to get up in the morning to drive them to school. Sean is done with early morning, but he still is driving the kids in to school (At least a half hour each way). Everybody is getting anxious to be done.
We have been having fun in our new community. The kids have made a lot of new friends and I am having fun exploring the trails and riding my bike around. I can hardly wait to get Caleb back so I can start taking him on walks in the morning.
Last Saturday, Daybreak had a street fair with a rock climbing wall, free sodas, chalk drawing on the street and flying kites in the park. It was a lot of fun. Erin and Isaac did the rock climbing. Erin made it to the top, but Isaac got about 3/4 the way up and made the mistake of looking down and realizing how far down it was. He got scared and decided he didn't want to go up any farther. I got some good pictures of it and went to download the pictures from my phone, but I couldn't get it to sinc up. I don't know what is going on. I will keep working on it and see if I can get some photos to post.
We are doing good. There is no news on the house buying front yet. We have some offers in on short sales, and hope to put one in on another one either today or tomorrow. It is at 11323 Kestrel Rise Rd, South Jordan, Ut 84095. It is immediately behind where we are living right now. It has 4 completed bedrooms and a GREAT view off the front porch. It would be great to be able to get this house because it would still be in the same ward. The kids are starting to make friends in the ward and it is a good ward. We are happy here.
There is also a forclosure on Iron Mountain way (I don't remember the address right now) that I want to look at and maybe put an offer on.
Now, having said all of this. I know we will get the house where the Lord needs us to be. That has been the feeling since we started this whole moving process thing. Everything will be all right. It is just the patience of waiting that is hard.

We can empathize. Adam's only a few weeks away from the end of the quarter and I know he (and I!) can't wait til he's done. Of course, being done also implies that we will have baby #2 and will be preparing to leave to TX for the summer so I don't know if it'll be any less stressful!!! At least it will be something different. Plus, I'm excited to go see everyone in TX. Wish you guys could come too!
Stephen finished his "May-mester" class last week. That was a relief! Two weeks is quick a cram. Of course, next week starts summer classes, so it is a very short reprieve.
I'm glad to here everyone is doing well in Utah!
Oops. That was supposed to be "quite a cram". I haven't had enough sleep.
