TG in the House!

For the last 5 months TG has been out selling security systems for APX alarms. He sold in Oxnard, California for the first 4 months and then went out to Boston to sell for the last month. I didn't go out with him to Boston because I had to be in Utah to teach. TG finally got back from Boston on Wednesday. We were apart for 5 weeks, so it's nice having him back home. While he was in Boston he got to do some pretty cool things. He and a couple other guys from the office went to a Boston Red Sox game at Fenway Park. Then last week they traveled to Philedelphia to see their (TG, Curt, and Tika) favorite team, the Steelers, play the Eagles. They were able to get really good seats. They sat on the 26th row from the field. I am super jealous because I LOVE football and I've always wanted to go to a NFL game. Though the Steelers lost badly, TG and the guys had a blast.

We Are Officially Homeowners!!


TG and I just bought a new townhouse in Lehi. I'm only posting a picture of the outside because the inside is filled with boxes. I'll post more pictures of the inside once we've unpacked everything. My little sister Alisa and her husband Chaz live two doors down from us, so Alisa and I are excited. We're so excited to finally have a place of our own. Since TG and I have been married we have always had someone living with us. We first had his friend, Lawton from Puerto Rico, live with us on and off for about two years. We then moved to California two summers ago and lived with Lawton and TG's brother, Tika. Last summer we lived with Tika and Carli in Wyoming. Then when my brother Bryson got home from his mission he lived with us until we moved to California for the summer. It really hasn't been bad having people live with us, but I think it will be nice to have a home of our own where it's just me, TG, and our baby.
My family came and helped me move all our stuff Saturday morning. I'm so grateful to have such a supportive family who is willing to help whenever I need them. I never realized how many things we've accumulated over the years. I feel like I threw away so much, yet we still had a lot of stuff. I'm especially grateful for my older brother Daren. He is the best big brother a sister could have. With TG being out of town he has been my confidant through this whole process. I seriously don't know what I would have done without him. Thanks Daren!

Sorry for the drought

It's been a month since I last posted, but the internet at our house hasn't been working for my computer, plus nothing too exciting has been going on. School started on August 18th, which seemed way too soon. I had a nice relaxing summer and it was a little difficult getting back into the groove of teaching.

Today I am 25 weeks pregnant. I can't believe that my 2nd trimester is almost over. It's going by really fast. My favorite thing right now is feeling the baby move around inside me, it's the craziest feeling-I love it. We still haven't decided on a name for her, but we have a couple in mind. My sister, Mindi has been trying to get me to post a picture of my fat belly, so here you go.
