Our New Life

Some of these pictures are a bit late, but that's ok :).



Our new home


Our new car! We got a great deal and I am very grateful that we got this car because if we hadn't, I would be home all day every day without a car!


This is where Devin spends every day and evening.


Goin' back to school to study some more


Mckenna has continued to be my little helper. When we moved in, there was only one shelf in our pantry. So, it took a while, but we finally got more put in. Mckenna's job was bringing the cans to me. She did pretty good!






Mckenna likes to hold the dust pan while I sweep. I think she got a little too close to it :)


We planted a few plants in our front garden. Mckenna was playing outside while I was planting. She was quiet for a while and I looked up and she had enjoyed eating some of our dirt!


We also leave a little time to play








All day Mckenna kept saying, "toes, pretty." She loved her painted toenails!

Behind... Once Again :)

Yes... I am behind, once again. I can't believe that the last time I posted was March, and it's now June! But, I do have a reason for lack of blogging, our move to Iowa. We are getting settled and getting unpacked. Devin started school a week and a half ago, and we are surviving! :) Our internet here is a lot faster, so I will be blogging a lot more often. Also, we are away from all of our family now, so the demand for pictures is higher :) (There are a few posts below, trying to update on the last few months. Sorry they are so brief, I will get better! )

Iowa... we finally made it!!

WE MADE IT!! (I'm guessing that a lot of you know that by now... but better late than never :) ) ... and Mckenna's still smiling. She went through a lot of snacks, movies, and new toys... but she was really good the whole trip! In the beginning of our drive, the road was windy and Mckenna got carsick and threw up. At that point, I was wondering what we were in for with such a long drive ahead. But she was happy the rest of the time as long as she had a new movie or toy to play with.


Once we arrived, we had about 2 weeks before Devin started school. So, we went out to do all the fun things we could think of while we had this time together.

Here is the State Capitol building.
Blank Park Zoo

Iowa Science Center

I will post more later, like pics of our apartment and our new car.

May

Mckenna on our last trip to my parent's cabin in Island Park
Mckenna with her friend, Jacob, helping pack :)

Lots of boxes

Mckenna's nose was runny so she got some TP and wiped it herself :)



April

So... April was pretty eventful because Devin graduated from BYU-Idaho! After he graduated, we were both working tons to save money for our move. So, we mostly just worked and packed!

We always have lots of cute pictures to share. Sure love this girl!



Our last time rock climbing in Idaho.


Devin's graduation!!!
