Vacation in San Diego

Grace's flowers

Here is our beautiful girl with her birthday flowers. She was so excited when they showed up at preschool. They were even sprayed with glitter. Just perfect for our little princess.

New Haircut

Here is Cooper with his new "big-boy" haircut. We think this makes him look so grown up and so much like Tim!

Oops

Well...So much for more frequent updates. Things have been so crazy at our house. We just finished celebrating two birthdays. Grace turned 4 on 4/7 and Cooper turned 2 on 4/13. They are growing so quickly. They both got scooters for their birthday so we have been spending our fair share of time outside.

We are also getting settled in our new house. We still can't always find things the first time but it's getting there. It is so nice to have all the space.

March update

Okay...now that we have officially moved and are starting to get back to normal I am going to try to make more regular updates. We did move to our new house on March 21st and are finally settled. Nothing on the walls yet but that will take time. Right after we moved, Tim and I took off for San Diego for a little get away. We spent 5 days in the beautiful city. We enjoyed our trip to the Zoo and Sea World. We were blessed to see a humpback whale on a whale watching tour and we spent some time at the beach. It was a great relaxing trip. I will post pictures soon.

Here we go...

What a crazy past few weeks we have had. We decided that we are not moving to Minnesota. There were no jobs and we thought that God was leading us to stay in Cedar Rapids. About 2 weeks ago we put an offer on a house in Cedar Rapids and the following Monday we sold our current house. We will be moving March 19 -22 to our new house. We are pretty excited. Now comes the not so fun part of packing and actually moving our stuff. I never realized how much junk we accumulate in just 3 short years.

Happy New Year! This year has the potential for many exciting adventures and we are ready for the journey. We had a nice Christmas in Minnesota with the Cumings side of the family and enjoyed seeing all that snow. We have arrived home safely and are ready to get back to our daily routine. The kids and I are enjoying a day at home today. Tim is in Minneapolis watching the Vikings game. A last minute decision but a fun time I am sure.
