A Quick Update

I haven't posted for awhile because I have been super busy traveling and looking for a house!! We found one, and we are currently under contract! Hooray! Here is a cute picture of the outside of the house.
I feel kind of funny posting very much about the house because it's not technically ours for awhile, but we are very excited, and things are looking very promising!
The pictures I am randomly putting on this post are from our anniversary and Father's Day. They were on the same day this year so Wes and I got some fabulous babysitters and went for a picnic and walk on the beach the day before! I cannot believe we have been married 7 years! Crazy!
Wes is getting ready for his big test. He starts testing in 3 weeks! I am certain he will pass, but I can't wait to have that certificate in our hands. He is keeping very busy with all his military duties and studying. This is him with his always-requested chicken pot pie. He helped me make the crust, and it was turned out perfectly.
Here is a cute picture from our anniversary. We had a fun picnic on the beach!

Bradley took this picture of me. Pretty good, huh?
As for me, I am going crazy. Yep, that about explains it. I have issues with stress and worry. I don't deal very well with change, and we have a lot of that coming up in our lives.
Bradley is also one who has a hard time with change so he has been a little emotional lately too. He is growing up so quickly. We are in constant awe at all he is soaking up. He absolutely LOVES to read. He just started reading "Treasure Island" (the abridged version with pictures) the other day, and he is already on chapter 8! Connor is loving having his big brother home to play with all day long. He loves to follow Bradley around and do what he does. He also loves to do worksheets and cut and color animal pictures! Oh, and I can't forget to mention how often he tells me, "Mommy, ummm . . .I love you," and "I know that." He seems to know pretty much everything about anything! He is also growing very fast. Both of them are getting too big to pick up. It's sad and amazing and crazy.
Here is a lovely picture of the ocean that same night we had our picnic! I am going to miss this!!!

Halley is so fun! She got lots of "walking" time while we were in UT. All she wanted to do was hold people's hands and walk all around and up and down the stairs. I am a little worried about how she walks, but people keep telling me I am paranoid! I am sure she'll figure it out. She makes us laugh all the time with her silly faces, and she just started saying more words - "this," "that," "kitty," and tonight we think she said, "ice." Of course, all these words are random and don't really sound exactly how they're supposed to, but they are definitely words!

Cute house! We love our little home in Hurricane. It will be hard to leave CA and the beach. We hope to see you sometime when you come back to SLC

trisha-
Stress huh?? Now you are starting to understand what I have to go through every 1-2 years... and why I appeared a bit stress at times!!
As for Haley- trust your instincts. While you have the benefits- ask your primary doctor.. there is nothing wrong with getting things checked out & even some extra therapies can help.. that is what those occupations are made for!!! Trust me... I am a nurse!!!

I hope the house works out for you guys - it is so cute. I hear you on the stress and worry thing. I told Jonny the other day that I feel like I am having panic attacks lately. Sheesh. Good luck with all the stuff you guys have coming up!

Hi Trisha,
I came across your blog through the Clark's. It's a blog world after all. Your house is adorable.
P.S. Thanks for all your smiles at Church. You are always so friendly.

I am so excited for you to come back! I know it has to be stressful, but I love change when it involves you moving closer. Just selfish I guess :) It was so fun to hang out with you guys and I am so glad you found a house. See you in less than a month! And don't forget to answer your phone on wednesday :)

Trisha Dee, it was soooo fun to have you home for the holdiay. I am so happy you are moving back HOME, I know that you love California and I am glad that you had the chance to go and live there. I cannot imagine how much stress you are going through right now, moving with 3 small children, but I can say I know it will get easier once you get here (well that is once you get here and Wes is done with his training out of state). I am proud of you Trisha you have handled all of this with such a wonderful attitude, you are such a great mommy and wife, and Wes is such a great daddy. I cannot believe it has been 7 years already. Crazy. Thanks for blogging. Let me know what I can do to help. Love you all tons and tons!! Auntie Brenda

Woohoo! I'm going to be selfish here and say that I'm soooooo glad you're coming back. If you need help on the Utah side with anything, let me know. I still haven't found a job since being layed off, so I'm pretty much free. I just drop Kyarra off and pick her up. Drop me a line when you're free and I'll see you soon, hopefully. By the way, great pics and congrats on the almost house and on your anniversary.
