Happy New Year
It's that time of year again. We reflect, we list, we promise, we try. There will be victories, there will be failures. I think we tend to focus and remember our failures more than we should. Yes, we should learn from our mistakes and try better but we should not always beat ourselves up about them. There are times where I make a same mistake over again and I just feel I will never be able to overcome certain challenges. But then I came across this simple but very profound quote by Richard G Scott that has helped me so much: "You are making better progress than you realize." I want you all to remember this quote throughout your lives as well :) Happy New Year!

Home Sweet Home
We have now been in Fort Wayne for 6 days now! We are SO glad to be here! Our home is BEAUTIFUL! New paint, new carpet, forced air for heat (We had been living with baseboard heaters-yuck), A/C for the summer, a water heater that works amazing, no smokers around us!, a dishwasher, washer and dryer, new cabinetry, assigned parking, and FANTASTIC staff and maintenance. We get all of this for $575/month!
We live on the outskirts of Fort Wayne so it is a quiet neighborhood :)
Our branch is just fantastic! I have NEVER been in one before, so when we walked into the chapel and I saw no pews just soft chairs, I was shocked! The building is sooo cute! Nursery consists of 3 including Rhychie. It looked like Primary had less than 20 kids in it. It is so awesome to experience church in a different way :) And the members are FANTASTIC! I think I met 75% of the branch yesterday! And a nice family and the only other ones under 35 :P had us over for fondu last night! Oh and we had AT LEAST 6 people show up to help us move in! When we left Laramie, NO ONE from the ward came and helped us pack up :(
Bo started work today! I am goona miss having my hubby around as often as I did while he was going to school but I am looking forward to those paychecks :) I am also very traditional, I have waited for this part of our lives! Hubby goes to work, I take care of the house and kids, and we have dinner as a family when he comes home :) Sounds silly I am sure, but I am excited!
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas! :)
