We Made IT

So, we are now in Texas. We made it here last Thursday and man is it HOT!! Wow! I never realized how much humidity there is here. Crazy. But so far we are loving it. The other wives are great and the ward seems really nice. We are luckily right next to the pool in our complex. Which makes it nice to head out there for an hour or two every day. The bad news is that we don't have the internet in our apartment yet. We have to come to the clubhouse to use the one here. Hopefully we will have ours up and running soon. So, no pictures. I was planning to post pictures of Presley's blessing that we on my email but for some reason its not pulling up. So... those are still going to be coming later. Well, the new Texans are off to have some lunch. Hope everyone is doing great!!!

Dallas TX Here we come

So, in the morning we are off to Dallas, TX. For two months. Working. Crazy? Yes. Excited? Yes. Mixed emotions? Definitely... Since Darren is extending his summer with Pinnacle, he has to switch offices. They close down a lot of offices at the end of August and only leave the bigger offices open. We came home to bless Presley last Sunday (pictures to come later). We have been waiting to hear whether or not there was an apartment open for us. Turns out there is. We are super excited. I am really glad I will be with him the next two months instead of away from him. So nice. I am really sad to be leaving family here. I know, it's only two months, but still hard. I will for sure miss my mom, who I see everyday. So will the kids. But this will be such a fun adventure!! I have only lived outside of Utah once and it was when I was single. It will be nice for Darren and I to only have each other. I am nervous to live somewhere so different then what I am used to. Luckily, one of my girlfriends will only be about 20 minutes away, so that is definitely a plus! So, tomorrow we are off on a long long long drive. We are splitting it up, but 20 hours in the car is no picnic. I will post about our newest adventure soon. Wish us luck!!!
