WHERE YOU GO I WILL GO

You always know when someone is going to giving you bad new.

They sit you down and look at you with a sad/serious face. Then come the words you new you would hear, "I have some bad news".  And in your mind you are trying to figure out what could possibly be going on.

Well as you probably guessed, this happened to me about a month ago.

I was eating breakfast and Michael sat next to me and told me that he "had some bad news".

I stopped eating and just stared at him waiting for the news, 
but I had an idea of what he was going to say.

I normally never get bad news and the look Michael had on his face told me everything.

We were moving.

Once it finally came from his mouth I burst into tears.

He began to tell me that we would be moving to Tualatin, OR
 
 Michaels Parents need his help with the Business in Oregon because it is doing so well.  He is needed so that the business can continue growing.

His pay will go up, he will have better hours, he will get to work at home sometimes and we would be living right next to family.

This truly is an amazing offer for my family, so of course I wouldn't have let Michael not take this offer.
Even though it saddens me to leave Utah and move further away from my family, I know that this is where we are suppose to be heading.  It feels right and I know I can be just as happy in Oregon as I am here in Utah.

I am so grateful that we at least get to live by family and I love Michael's family.  It will be a wonderful change to be able to have family so close.

Throughout the day I would randomly start crying because I would start to think of how much I am going to miss Utah.  I had already envisioned my life here in Utah, I had already picked out where I wanted to live and have my children grow up. And I will miss the wonderful Summers Utah has to offer.  I will mostly miss having my family come to visit for the weekend because it is such a short trip.  And I will also miss the Ward we are in.  This Ward has been the best Ward we have been in sense being married.  Everyone is so caring and loving.  It will be hard to leave everyone.

After time had passed though and we found a place to live in Oregon, 
positive thoughts about Oregon started to come in.
And I have began to get excited to move.

We get to rent the house that Michael grew up in from his parents, we will live in a great location that is very close to his parents(which I am so excited about), summers are just as great in Oregon as they are in Utah, we already know a lot of people there and in the Ward we will be going to, we will have plenty of space for all of my family to come and visit us and Michael gets to work with his family and learn the business that he loves.

 We are truly so blessed for this wonderful life that we have been given. I am so grateful for this amazing opportunity that we get. 
 
In the end it is all about family and I would move anywhere for my family.
Ruth 1:16 "Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay."

The Lord has a plan for everyone, we just need to trust in him to lead us the way.
We leave at the end of October.

THE FINAL WEEK

How far along?    39 weeks We are in the final week ladies and gents!! Maternity clothes? Only a few shirts  and a dress. Other than that I just wear leggings, dresses, and some of Michaels shirts. Stretch marks? Not a single one thank goodness! When I was in school I learned in my  Anatomy  and Physiology class that if you start putting on shay butter/coconut oil(I used the Palmers cocoa butter and sometimes add my 100% coconut essentials oil.) two months before getting pregnant, that it will help your skin loosen and become more elastic.  So once we decided to start trying I  immediately  got some lotion and put it on every other day(or you can put it on everyday).  I know that, that is what helped me not get any stretch marks. I cant  guarantee  it will work for everyone, but what I do know is that if you don't start lotioning your skin early, it for sure will not be ready for the  drastic ...

Kicking our summer off right.

Summer is officially here! My favorite season has finally arrived. There is no better way to celebrate the first weekend of summer then camping! Michael and I love camping. Their is just something about campfires, sleeping under the stars, and s'mores  that get me excited to camp. This weekend we camped in Provo canyon with some friends that are going to BYU. Once we got camp all set up and the fire going this little guy decided to pay us a visit. Not going to lie I thought it was a bear sneaking up on us at first. I was scared out of my mind, but then he stuck his head up and I felt a lot better. After making some yummy s'mores and relaxing by the fire we got in the cars and headed to squaw peak to  look at the beautiful lights from on top of the mountain. You can see all of Utah Valley from up there. Everyone knows that if you are looking to get a goodnights rest  that camping is not what you want to be doing. ...
