Our New Place


Well everyone, the days flew by and we will be moving in a couple of days. We are super excited and also sad. We have made some wonderfull friends who are more like family, and are leaving family to whom we have grown even closer.
I wanted to put a picture with this post so that it will be quasi-entertaining. This is a picture of the house that we will rent in College Place. It is a couple of miles from work and also really close to church and shopping.
Jandi is really excited to live in a house and have a yard and a place to garden. I am excited to have a garage! Yeah baby.
We can't wait to get up there though, and even better is that Ryan and Tess are going to come out. We can't wait to see them. We haven't seen them in a while so it will be great to catch-up.

Onions and Tulip Fields!

Well, it's time to announce that Kenny, Myles, and I are moving to Walla Walla, Washington. What's there? Onions. And Home Depot where Kenny has been promoted to assistant store manager. I am so proud of him! He has really worked hard for this promotion.


We are sad and excited for the move. Moving is something that has always been fun and exciting to me, but now that we've lived close to family for two years I'm a little sad to leave. Our ward is awesome too! We've made some really good friends here. Mostly, I will miss my amazing sister, Krystal. It's been so fun to look out my window and know she's right down the street.


I didn't have any pictures to put with this post which is why I decided to post our trip to the Tulip Festival as well. Kenny and I went two years ago together and we knew we had to take little Myles to get a few family pics. I think we will definitely take a family trip each year to the Tulip Fields, because a family picture in an onion patch just isn't the same. :) Although, that does actually sound funny. So maybe we'll do it.

Myles and Daddy!



Myles and Mama!

The whole fam!

Oh, I forgot to say that we found a cute little house to rent. Our first house! We're very excited for that! We feel extremely blessed and grateful for this new opportunity in life!

Road to Home

I know that Jandi will want to blog about our trip to Walla Walla, WA so I will write about our drive.

It was pretty uneventful, which was great considering we were taking an almost 5 month old on an almost 5 hour drive. Myles was so great. We tried to time when we left for Walla Walla around his nap time so that he would sleep for a couple of hours. We were only partially successful. Needless to say he was great but our guilt made us stop more frequently so we could get him out of the car seat and walk around.

On the way back we stopped in Arlington, OR so Myles could eat. There is this little park right off the highway so it made for a relaxing pit stop. We got out and walked around a bit and took some pictures by an old Union Pacific rail car that was on display. It was fun and since my Grandfather worked for the railroad it made for a nice picture.




I went walking around the park by myself when Myles was feeding. I say feeding because he is in a growth spurt right now and seems ravenous.

I took some pictures of some ducks cause I was bored. Here is a funny one.
