House Hunters

Have you ever seen the show House Hunters on HGTV? Well, that is NOT how house hunting goes!!

Before arriving to Texas I looked at about 140 houses online. When I got here, I looked at about 32-35 of those houses in person. When Clint got here we looked at about 12 of the houses.

It just so happened that one day, when we were out with the realator, she got a phone call from another agent saying "hey, if your clients are hungry we're having an open house at _____ address." So, since our realator had to meet another couple to close on a house, we stopped by this open house.
We ended up LOVING the house. We put in an offer yesterday and it was accepted today. So, its not actually ours yet, but we're one step closer!!!!

We are leaving Texas tomorrow (Sunday) night and heading back to Utah. We'll be there for Thanksgiving and then the weekend after Thanksgiving we are loading up the Penske truck and heading back to Texas. So we won't be back for long, but at least we'll be there for the holiday.

Little Cosmotologists

The girls had fun brushing each other's hair after bathtime the other night.

Spinning Princesses

Morgan and her cousin, Ambria, are two peas in a pod. Probably because they're 3 weeks apart in age. Ambria has lots of little "spin dresses", and she loves to wear them and spin in circles. The other day we were in the living room and the girls came out with their shirts off (Morgan had her pants off too) and their spin dresses on.

Our Road Trip

Like I mentioned in a previous post, we left Utah on November 4th and headed to Texas. Just Morgan, Jackson and me. Everyone kept telling me I was "brave" to do it alone (which really just means crazy), but it wasn't too bad. We were blessed with safety and with no car problems. And we only missed one turn the whole way!! Here are some scenic pictures from Southern Utah through New Mexico.

Halloween

October 30, 2010-I think I'm the last person in the blogging world to blog about Halloween. Its been crazy being so unsettled the last couple of months. But I'm determined to get caught up this week.

This year we spent Halloween with Clint's family.

Cousin Carson and Morgan. Can you tell she's afraid of him?

It didn't take long for her to warm up to him though.

The Friday before Halloween my brother and I took our kids trick-or-treating at my mom's office.

That night, we totally surprised my mom with a Christmas birthday party. Her birthday was the 25th, and she is a Christmas FANATIC, so the theme was a no brainer!!

I made the sign and decorations with my Cricut.

Even more surprised when she opened her Christmas birthday gift.

It was a perfect brownie pan set
