We have had an interesting last week. For starters our good friends were in town, for a sad reason, but we were glad to see them. We spent a good few hours with them. That was nice, and then later that week, more like the next weekend Nick got a phone interview for a job. Well it went well. Two days later the job called him and told him he was picked to work for them. Well so now we are off to Boise Id. Not really the place I thought I would go for his job, but happy to go. We have family there, we aren't to far away from family here in Utah, and I have a friend that lives there. Oh and most important the Disney store is there. That's right I will be close to the Disney store, I'm so excited. =) Its really pretty up where we are looking. Nick is leaving on Sunday because he has to be there by Monday and he can't leave Saturday its our 8th Anniversary.
Gabriel just turned 7 on the 20th, the funny thing was we found out on Gabe's birthday we got the job. So his birthday party was a birthday/yea we got a job party. Any excuse for a party works for us.
So now comes the funness of packing again. I just did this 5ish months ago. Oh well most of it is already packed so this should be easy. Nick will be working up at Boise University. with the USGS. That is what he wants to do. So he can look for jobs when he starts this one, they have jobs for just people in the USGS. The job he has is temperary, so we will take it one day at a time. Its going to be hard to leave family and friends, but we will keep track of them all and we will come down every once in a while, Nick still has guard every months. Spencer is going to have a hard time leaving Aunt Jenny's school class, but we will keep her posted on what he is doing in his new school.
So all and all this weekend has been sad and very very happy.

its not the best of pictures but there is Spencer in his glasses, he looks so handsome.
Well not alot has been going on. Spencer just got glasses, his first week wearing them. He was so worried about wearing them at school. He asked me what he was to do at recess. It was funny. I told him that you just wear your glasses all the time. He was taking them off to eat and everything. EmmaLyn got to ride the train today with Dad. Her first time on a train. I wish Dad had the camera to take pictures. She got to go on the train with Dad to work. Aunt Cristie picked her up to play with Hannah. Then she got to ride home with Dad on the train again. She loved it. Gabe is reading...well Mom really is reading most of it, but he is reading Frindle, cute book. He wants to ready Harry Potter. So here is the picture of Emma hula hooping like I promised, its funny. It didn't take her too long to master the hula hoop, we will see how long it takes her to do the jump rope.

kids say the darndest things!!!!!!

So funniest thing this week. Sometime this week Gabriel told Emma about the private areas. She was playing with me and she told me her girlie part was called a battery! I don't get it but boy did I loose some calories, that was so funny, so Dad has to sit down and talk with Gabe. It wasn't bad what he said but he needs to know all that fun stuff. Good Luck Dad! I took Spencer to the eye doctor Tuesday, and yes he was blind. He is getting glasses, so when we get those I will post a picture of my cute little 4 eyes. School is well on its way and the boys are loving their classes. Spencer's in Aunt Jenny's class and Gabe loves his teacher. They are both doing good so far, but we have only been there for 2 weeks. I went to a card swap yesterday and holy cow they were really really cute. The trouble with going to this card swap thing every other month is that I just collect the cards. I have a hard time useing some of them, they are so cute. It does inspire me to be creative.
Gabriel's birthday is rapidly coming. I can't believe he is turning 7. He woke up one day and started counting down his Birthday. It snuck up on me. Nick and I are going to be married for 8 years this month, wow where has the time gone. We are still struggling like no other but we are blessed with the family we have and our health.
Our garden gave us some corn on the cob, but the beattles got to our other stuff and the wind the other night knocked everything down, so we are going to get what we thought. It was fun to do for a while, Nick loved that garden. Me not so much.
Well Dad is starting the talk.... This is going to be good, Good Night
