In answer to your questions...

I've had several people ask me, whether through email or Facebook mesages, how we have been adjusting to Utah, so here you go...

We've finally hit a routine and it feels like life is back to normal. Jeff is now working on the City Creek project in downtown Salt Lake. The project is located across from Temple Square where the Crossroads and ZCMI Center used to be. They've torn down that whole section and are replacing it with several new towers and a walking mall that is very similar to the Gateway. Jeff has been helping with the surveying work and spends most of his days outside collecting data and then entering it into a computer. (I think they've finally realized they can put his education to work!) He commutes right into down-town on the TRAX and its saving a lot in gas money. I'm home with the boys and we spend our days over at the playground, at the aquarium, making art projects, or on playdates with the Snedakers or Kris and her boys. Carson now has an obsession for visiting Cabella's and asks all the time if we can go. I love being 5 minutes away from Target and 15 minutes from IKEA. I am loving having a spacious apartment, but when our lease is over in June we will be looking for a house. We feel like we have been led to where we need to be right now. We're hoping to be able to go to Idaho for Thanksgiving, but if not then, we'll definitely try for Christmas.

Where are you guys living? Kurtiss was riding TRAX into Salt Lake this summer when we lived in West Jordan...sounds like a similar area that we were in! I loved the shopping too!

Hey Sara!
It was great to hear from you... Looks like you are doing good in Utah. We miss your family, the ward just is not the same without you and your boys!! Tell Carson we say hi!
