Happy Easter!

Today Cody and I were able to enjoy a fun Easter barbecue with his family in Spanish Fork. It was very nice! And of course we ate too much. After eating, the kids had an Easter egg hunt (of course!), so that was fun to watch. Here are a few photos from the festivities:




In other news, we've noticed more and more people mentioning our lack of procreation recently .. Is it selfish of us wanting to get into a bigger house, pay our debt down, and make sure Cody's job is going to be reliable? I know that if we were to wait until we can afford to have kids, we wouldn't ever have kids. But I don't think it's unreasonable to make sure we can provide for said offspring. Don't get me wrong, I am so excited to have a family with Cody. Nothing would make me happier than to stay home and raise a family in the Gospel. But, that's just not realistic right now. *sigh* What it comes down to is that this is our business and we have to do what is right for us. Some people have been able to start their families right after the wedding, and that's awesome. Moral of the story: Relax, we'll have kids soon enough! :)

a boring post .. sorry!

Even though I don't have much to talk about, I decided it was time for an update! Not a whole lot has been happening around here the last few weeks. I am currently enjoying General Conference with my family as I type this and it's been great! My leaders never cease to amaze me, and I'm so glad that I get to be reminded twice a year.

We're still waiting on someone to buy our house, but we did get an offer, though it was an insult. At least we got one though! We're holding out for a better one; we've decided that if we have to wait until next year, we don't want to settle for less than what we're asking. First of all, I don't think what we're asking is unreasonable. Secondly, the market sucks, so it's not crazy to wait. We do really want to get out, but not enough to owe $12,000 at the closing table.

We miss our chickens, and look forward to the time when we'll be able to welcome them to our new home. We get to visit them every once in a while, we're really grateful of Cody's old boss for taking care of them for us. I guess they've been getting "busy" because there are some of their eggs with chicks in them! They're due to hatch this Wednesday, so I'm pretty excited about that. I didn't think they'd do it, but I guess we'll have to see.

My birthday is coming up this month, and so is my birthday date with my dear friend Jess (her birthday is close to mine). I'm so excited! I just love spending time with her and she's just wonderful! We've been best friends for close to ten years and I've enjoyed every minute!

Well, that's the update for now. Work is pretty busy with lots of new responsibilities, but I won't bore ya'll with that!

Tchussy!
