Home!!

So we finally made it home!! In the nick of time let me tell ya!! We came home Friday and on Saturday we had the weirdest freezing rain storm I have ever seen. Well never have seen one in my life. This whole place turned into a huge ice skating rink. Then to add to it we woke up Sunday morning to about 2 inches of snow and it snowed the whole day. We had a good 8-10 inches and the people here don't know what to do with that much snow. This is a very rare occasion that this happens. They say it happens every 8 to 10 years but it has really only been 4 since the last big storm. They aren't epuipped with snow removal equipment and so now it is just a slushy mess. SO crazy!! The house is coming along great and we are getting excited. I will have to update pictures soon. Ryley is growing like a little weed and getting pretty darn funny. She loves to sing her ABC's the best she can and is doing very well for a 19 month old. WE are all fighting the lovely cold season again. Ryley has been sick since last wednesday and has a yucky cough and Clay and I just have those dang colds that we can't kick but all is well. Sorry it has been so long. I will be back later with more fun stuff.

Look at it go!!

Oh Idaho!!

What a wonderful past two weeks it has been. Christmas and family and the new year and way too much food. It is so fun to be back in Idaho and to be home for awhile. We have definatly been enjoying our time here. We got to talk to my brother and Clay's brother who are on their missions on Christmas and it was amazing to hear there voices and to see how much they have grown and how strong their testimonies of the gospel are getting. What wonderful examples they are to me and I am so proud to have them as part of my family. Christmas was wonderful. We all got so spoiled, especially Ryley!! I had to open most of her presents because she was more interested in the candy and her little ride on toy Santa brought her. She was pretty darn cute. Clay surprised me with a KitchenAide mixer and boy was I so happy. I have wanted one for a really long time. It will definatly get put to good use. Now I can make him rolls without complaining that my arms hurt!! (They really didn't but it was a good excuse!!) j/k It will be really fun to have. Our house is coming along great. My sweet friend Tiffany has been keeping us updated by taking pictures and sending them. Thanks so much Tiff!! You are the best!! We actually have a house. It is so fun to see. I only wish we could be there to see it all going up but by the time we get home it will be completely up and they will be working on the interior. YEAH!! Then we will have a little over a month and we will be in it!! Finally a place to call Home and My OWN!! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. We love you all so much and wish you all the best!!
