We Made it!

We made it!


We (Maddy and I) are now in UT. The trip was so long!! Maddy was an angel of coarse she had her moments but for the most part she was great, being in a car for 2 days 12 hours a day who wouldn't get fussy. We arrived at Jody's and Lena's first in Arizona. I had such a great time with them. Mikael and Layla are so cute, I wish I would have taken pictures of them but I will have plenty of opportunities in a couple months. Lena is so sweet and we are so grateful for their hospitality. Casey had his interview the next day and he was hired on the spot so than 2 days later we left for another long 12 hour trip to UT.


Casey was able to spend a couple days with us but now is back in Arizona, working and he will start school this Monday. I am so proud of him... my boy is growing up he he!


Heath and Heidi were here also so last weekend we went to Willow park and had a picnic. It was fun, Maddy loves playing with her cousins. On Monday we also had aonther picnic this time at the portage park with Nic's family and Heath's family. We can't wait the See Lance's family!

We are having a good time but miss Casey. We also Miss Casey's Parent's. Maddy especially.Ellie and Heidi

Thank you all for commenting on my last post, that was so much fun.
Drum roll please as I announce the winner..............................
It is a tie breaker, you all get to take me out! How is that. Just kidding. Thank you again everyone.

Things are still crazy here. We have been living with Casey's parents for a month now, they have been so good to us and we are so grateful. We have decided that we are moving to Arizona so Casey can finish school. He has been accepted at UTI in Phoenix. It is a 17 month course, he will graduate as a diesel mechanic and also they will work with the University of Phoenix to combine his credits from the other college and he will receive his bachelor degree. On top of that this college has a 97% job placement so that is also us huge bonus.
We should be moving this week, Maddy and I will be staying with my mom until the GI bill kicks in and than we can move to Arizona to be with Casey. Casey's Brother (Jody)and his wife (Lena) are amazing and are helping us get ready for the move, they live there and are letting Casey stay with them until the GI bill kicks in. We are so greatful for them. We are just waiting to get everything done with the guard. Not realy looking forward to the long trip but that is ok, it will be worth it.
So things are looking up. Thank you everyone for all your prays and sweet thoughts these past couple months you guys will never know how much we appreciate it.
Today was such a beautiful day and Maddy was in such a fun mood I thought I needed to take advantage of it. So here is our latest photo shoot. My baby is growing up.
Hope you enjoy...
