Hi Everyone, I have been such a big slacker and quit busy with life that I just haven't made it quit down far enough on my to do list where -update my blog is at.
Wow were to start. ...
These past 2 months I have been able to spend time with my family. First in May, Mom and Tysha came down to visit also the same time Heath, Heidi and the girls came too. I had such a good time. I love family get together's. We went to Nacalulla falls but other than that we didn't do much, I am such a bad hostess. We basically just sat and talked. I hope they had fun. I know I did.
3 weeks later, I drove to see Heath, Heidi and the girls. The drive was so long and than on top of that the next day I had to drive Casey another 14 hours. Yep I was burnt out! I spent 2 weeks with Heath and Heidi. I thought for sure they would get sick of me. I had so so much fun with Heidi and the girls. I got to know Heidi more and can I tell you not only do I have the best sister in the world but I have the best sister-in-laws too. Heidi is so amazing, fun and so so sweet. We could talk for hours... and did. She made me feel so welcome and has such a wonderful calming presence about her. We did so much stuff. We went to the zoo twice, had a Harry Potter party, went to the library, went to play group, went to a birthday party, and of course went shopping it was so fun! Thank you Heath and Heidi, I love you guys. Mom and Tyson came out later and that was also great. I hadn't seen Tyson since Nov. so it was great to see him and Mom was wonderful as always! She made such yummy food and spent tons of time kissing and playing with the grandkids.
So that is a way short version of the last 2 months. Now for the last 2 weeks.
It always seems to happen, Right when everything seems to be going smoothly, right when you have just found a grove that you are happy with and everything starts becoming life's sweet self again. than BAMB! it happens the unexpected turn. I am never quit ready for them and sadly to say lately am mostly numb to them but not this one.
We are not going to be able to get our house. Can you believe it! Yep unexpected turn. We had been dealing with a particular lender this whole entire time. From the very beginning he told us that all we needed to have was 1 months worth of pay stubs and could get the house no questions asked no problem. So Casey started driving truck in the hopes we could get the house in a couple months (it has almost been 7) than use his GI bill and my photography to support us while he finishes education which would have been fine. Now we are being told that we can not get the house because Truck driving is considered a commission job and such a job requires 2 year experience before you can be approved for a loan. ARE YOU KIDDING! I almost died when they told me this. Our lender was so dishonest with us and the sad thing is we put everything in his hands. He was so qualified, he owned his own business for pete's sake. He actually up and quit, many speculate it was because he has been leading people down the wrong path (hmmm...) others say it was health reasons. Either way he just killed us. We were told this by a completely different mortgage person who just looked at our stuff briefly where are past lender had had our stuff for more than 9 months. Not only did he but a huge kink in our life but also in our landlords life, he has bought another house and was just waiting for this house to close so he can start getting financially back on track. Things are not looking good for him. And it kills us that this has happened to him. We just pray that someone will buy this house quickly for his sake. That is all we can really do.
So we are packing up and moving. Where too? Who knows. We are hoping something comes up in UT but know we have to look other places too. For the time being I am moving in with the in-laws and than probably go home for awhile until we find something.
We are still in this other stupid lawsuit which is going no where. It is just irritating to talk about so I will give an update on that later.
Other than that not much. Our 4th of July was Fun. Casey Had a 3 day weekend which was so great. So we had a BBQ at his parents house and saw a tiny bit of fireworks it was a holiday just to have Casey home.
Sorry no pictures this time. But Check out Heidi's blog http://hnhtreehouse.blogspot.com/ she has tons of pictures posted of all the fun we had. The past 2 months. Her and Jenn are such great bloggers, sorry mom you and I struggle. He He....
