So much has happened in the last month...

We were lucky enough to get an offer on our house the second day it was on the market and everything went through without any problems. We found out the couple buying the house was a relatives of some friends in our ward.
While I was boxing up the house Tori decided to box herself up!

We moved down the street into some apartments, so we would be in the same boundaries as our current ward and for Sydney to go to the school that we had already registered her to. We got a little bored and went out and bought bikes for Steve and I and a trailer for the little kids. We LOVE them so much. Its been so fun going for bike rides. We have gone out about every night, and Sydney has done a great job keeping up with me and Steve.

Also, Kierstin and her boys (Men!) came up for a surprise visit! Yeah we were so excited to see them!

Then, Sydney had her recital and was so excited because all her cousins got to be there!






She did such a great job and we were so proud of her.
They always look so cute in their costumes.

Sydney and I rode our bikes to the hair salon close by and got her hair cut short like mine.

The FOURTH OF JULY


Of course Steve had to work, so we didn't do much until the afternoon when we went to Aunt Dawns' for a BBQ. The kids had so much fun playing in the pool, I had to try to bribe them to leave to avoid a melt down. Steve got off early enough to come watch the fireworks at Mom and Dads.
Then it was off to Boise!
We found out on the 26th that Steve got a job at the Lowe's in Meridian,Id and needed to be @ work on the 8th of July. So after only 3 weeks from our last move we were moving again, but we were both excited for this move and the timing was perfect!

The drive over was fun and exciting. We had to prep the kids and talk it (the move) up so they would be ok with it. They were fine, they took turns riding in the moving truck w/dad which was the most exciting part for them.

When we arrived in Boise, Grandpa Kanooth was already at our apartment to greet us and surprise the kids. He just happened to have a business trip here the day we were moving to town. What a coincident!

We stayed at the hotel the 1st night and Steve had some guys from church help unload in the morning and the kids and I got to sleep in. Thanks Stevie POO!! lol !


After we unloaded and set up we took the kids swimming and we both agreed that Tori NEEDS a lifevest!! So the next night we got on our bikes and headed to Target down the road.

We love it here! Its so nice and everything is SO close. There is tons for families to do here and everything is so new and fun for us. This weekend it's suppose to be really hot so we are going to go up in the mountains and have a picnic.
