working together

Today our grass got it's first haircut!

Here is Dan hard at work:

We decided to get a push lawn mower to be eco-friendly :) oh and our yard is not very big!  We did joke about getting a riding lawn mower just because it would be funny!

This is pretty much our life lately.  Go to work during the week and spend time working and cleaning our house on Saturdays.  I feel we have been to Home Depot more in the past month than I have ever been in my whole life!  It's actually been a lot of fun working on our house together.

I really don't have any other updates except that tonight I went to the Relief Society Broadcast and really enjoyed it.  I loved President Uchtdorf's talk.  He had so many great things to say!  My mom also sang in the choir and I saw her two times on the big screen!  It was a lot of fun seeing a familiar face up there :).  Great job singing, Mom!  You sounded beautiful!

Moving In

I can't believe it's been over 2 weeks since I last blogged!  This moving thing has really kept me busy.  I guess we also just barely got internet in our house yesterday too.  Anyway, we are still alive and we are just loving our new house!  We are almost all the way unpacked.  It has been a lot of fun decorating our new home and just living in it.  We love our neighborhood and so far the ward has been really friendly and welcoming too.

We were lucky enough to have my parents down here the weekend we moved.  They helped us so much!  My mom helped me unpack and clean while my Dad put up our blinds, put knobs on all of the cabinets, and many other various tasks I had for him (it's nice having a very handy Dad!)  We definitely kept them busy while they were here, but we also had some fun too.  The men went golfing while my mom and I went shopping (which by the way, we found the cutest lamp for our living room!).  It was fun to have a shopping buddy!  We also went to the Little Mermaid at Tuacahn with them.  It was awesome!  I was really impressed with the special effects.  They did all of these cool water things to make it feel like the show was really underwater.  We had such a great time with my parents and are so grateful for their help!

Once we're all unpacked I'll be sure to put up pictures of the house.  I need to get unpacked because I really want to decorate for Fall!  I know my decorations are somewhere :)
