Happy to be a Mom!

I love this thought from President David O. McKay

"She, who can paint a masterpiece or write a book that will influence millions -- deserves the admiration and the plaudits of man. But she who rears a family of beautiful sons and daughters, whose influence will be felt through generations to come, long after paintings have faded, and books have been destroyed she deserves the highest honor that man can give, and the choicest blessings of God. In her high duty and service to humanity, she is co-partner with the Creator himself."

New Home

We live in the On campus married with children apartments. They are attached to a play ground and the rent is cheaper than provo. So win, Win Win.
We have two bedrooms, Spencer is asleep so his room will have to wait. But our room, is just fine,
Our awesome very roomy kitchen, with lots of cupboard space. Actually our cupboards are all 1/2 empty, after all we just brought the basics.
So we got home Wednesday Night and our now moved in with our wonderful furniture. For those of you who don't know we came out with just our car and car top carrier. What a trip. We bough an apartment full of furniture for $300.00. The people we got it from got it cheap or free from craigslist- so you know it is good quality stuff!

I especially love the couches, 1970's Dream (ok, maybe nightmare), but they will do for 12 months right?
Here is my cute pink and yellow bathroom, the only room in the house that is decorated.

Spencer discovering the kitchen, and then helping daddy put child proof locks on. Spencer loved the drill which our awesome neighbor let us borrow

Nay! The apartment looks great~I love pieced together old furniture! Your trip looks like it was AMAZING!!! I've done DC, but most of the others. Derek and I hope to make it to New York, someday! Good luck Devin with school! Wish we could come visit, I know Derek would love to see Notre Dame, However, we will be moving this summer, again. Derek just got a job in Twin! I think I am excited! He has to go back to school though, so back to starving student status! Yay! Love ya Nay, you look gorgeous in your pics. Wish we could've gotten together before you left!

Hey Naomi! Looks like you've had a ton of fun traveling the last little bit. I bet it's nice to be home. Can you believe our babies are almost one??!! Hope South Bend is treating you well. We'll have to get together once we're out there next fall.
