Little update on us...=)

Wow, We have had a great time over the past month or so.

First of all. Katelynn turned 1! I cannot believe my little baby is 1 already! She has gotten so big. The most common question i get is... Is she walking yet? Well she isn't walking by herself. She still likes to crawl when she has to be independent. She loves to walk when we hold her hand. Most of this walking is her pulling us all around to where she wants to go. She is a busy body. I seriously thought she was a busy girl months ago, but i had no idea what i was really in for. She wears me out! Kate's birthday was a great day! My brother Jared and my Grandmother were able to come and stay with us for a few days over her birthday. We had a blast! We went to the park and played on the slides and the swings. She got to do a little skateboarding with her daddy. Her new friend Eloise from down stairs gave her a puzzle, that she absolutely LOVES! Thanks Black family.
She was also spoiled by her Grandparents! She got so many fun toys and clothes. My Grandma Stanger took us to Olive Garden for dinner, and then came home for some cake. It was such a wonderful day. We had a blast!

The next few days we enjoyed seeing the sites around here with Jared and Grandma. Snow Canyon, Mesquite, and some of our favorite spots. Grandma volunteered to babysit, so Ben, Jared, and I could go bowling. It was fun to spend some time with out our little stinker.

Over the past few weeks we have just been living the good life. We haven't found work yet, but we are still hopeful. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers. Over all things are going good here. We still are loving our new ward. We're trying to get to know more people around here, find more things to do, and Ben is doing really well in school.

We have some pretty exciting things going on in the next few weeks. Most importantly, we get to see some, or most of our family for a couple of days. It will be great getting to see and spend some good quality time with them. We have missed all of them lots!

Well that is it for now. I do have pictures, but most of you have probably seen them on Facebook, so i don't want to add the same ones to this.
