MOVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, it's not exactly what we had planned or how we thought this would go. But we finally got to a point where we knew we needed to get be out on our own again and decided that we weren't going to just sit around and hope we get a full time job. Ryan has two jobs already, so as long as he keeps getting the hours that he has been getting, we'll be just fine. So about a week ago, something happened that lit the fire in us to really start looking and just go for it. We looked at an old apt building that we had lived at previously that we had LOVED. Sadly, the only apt they accepted pets in was a much smaller apt than what we were looking for. So we moved on. We looked at a few other place south and north of us. We finally found a place in Layton, Utah that we loved and the boys loved. It allows us to have our cat with us (which was a necessity) and has a storage unit we can rent. It's quite a bit smaller than we had hoped for, but it has great use of space. There are negatives and positives to this move, but the important thing is that we feel very good about it. One of our major worries has been Alex and how he'll deal with it. He LOVES the apt., and really likes the look of the school. I don't think in his mind it will ever come close to Adelaide, but he'll give it a chance. :) I really hope that being in an apt complex, Alex and Darek will have the opportunity to make a lot of new friends. We will be in an incredible location... walking distance to the mall and movie theaters, so there will never be a problem of having nothing to do. I just have to watch myself with how easy it will be to go shopping! We got a great move in deal with this place, so we feel like we can take our time moving in. But at the same time, I just kind of want to get it over and done with too. So hopefully within the next week or two, we'll be totally moved into our new place. Once we have furniture and such in, we'll take some pictures of it!
