Our Move to Vancouver Washington

So we made it to our new home in Vancouver Washington on Friday! We are enjoying ourselves so far. It took us around 18 hours to drive here from St George. We packed up the moving truck on Wenesday and headed to Lehi were we stayed the first night. I had a chance to visit my sister in Salt Lake for and hour or so. It was so nice to see her again and my cute little niece we are going to miss them so much. Thanks everyone who helped make our packing a trip easier. My mom helped all day wenesday clean and pack all the little stuff. Chris and Brad loaded the truck almost all by themselves. Thanks to Dan and Suzanne who also came over and helped. It was so wonderful to have to much help. It was really hard to say good bye to my Mom. I am going to miss her so much. I am going to miss all my family and friends in St George and in Utah. I know that we are suppose to be here in Vancouver at this time in our lives. When we arrived in Vancouver on Friday with in a half and hour we had 5 elders from our ward here to help us. I am so grateful for the church and all the help and service that goes on. We settled quickly and Brads family came up to see us on Saturday we had a great time with them. Brads mom is so excited that we are so much closer now. We are about 4 1/2 hours from them. Sunday we went to church and had a good time. It is so different going to a regular ward. Our ward in St George is a lot different then here but, I think it will be a good thing. After church we watched the Superbowl. Thanks Mom and Dad for visiting. I can wait for my parents and family to come see our new home. Life is good and I am looking forward to this new chapter in our lives. We love and miss you all. But one day we all will be together one day and it will be wonderful. Sorry for the long post but, just wanted to let you all know what we have been up to.. I promise to post more and I will have pictures on my blog soon...

Santa Claus

We went and saw Santa Claus at the clubhouse last week. The girls love him....

Moving

We are going to be moving in January. We are moving to Vancouver, Washington. We are way excited but, I am very nervous. I am going to miss all my family and friends. Brad got a job working for a merchant service company. He is really looking forward to a new change from banking.

Some before and after pictures of Brads Surgery...

Brad went to the doctor a week ago and he gave us some cool pictures... The second picture shows the arthritis in his shoulder socket. The doctor said it was pretty bad. The arthritis is present because of the amount of times it has dislocated in the last 4 years... The first picture is some pictures during the surgery of him repairing the tendon and building up his joint with soft tissue.

Supercross 2008

Back in October we went to some motorcycle races in Las Vegas. We had a lot of fun and thanks to Jen for coming done to watch the girls. It was a nice little getaway for Brad and I. All of you probably already know that we love to watch and ride bikes. The race took place at the MGM Garden Areana. It was an inside race and so it was really loud. We were able to stay over night, and just enjoy the whole day with out kids. Just for anyone that might know the rider. James Bubba Stewart won, I was so glad Reed didnt win. Go BUBBA!!!

Brad's Surgery

Brad had shoulder surgery on Halloween. All went well and he is in a little pain but, with pain meds he seems to be doing really well. Thanks to my Mom for watching the girls and taking then trick or treating.
