Are we alive?

I am sure that is a question that many of you are thinking, and I am so sorry! I don't even know if we have been so busy that I haven't had time to post, I think I have just been doing other hobbies instead! (So sad that blogging is a hobby for me, but it is!)
Cody has been so busy with school, and is feeling small case of senior-itis. He is pushing through it well, and can't wait for April 23rd! Right now he is in the middle of March Madness, just praying one of his brackets will pull through for him! I am so glad that I married a man who is as obsessed with athletics as my FATHER!
I have been reading quite  a bit lately, and I reccommend two of my most recent books. (Neither of them are for the feint of heart, however...) The first being The Secret Life of Cee Cee Wilkes by Diane Chamberlain. I absolutely could not put this book down. Murder, mystery, love, amazing! The second was Me & Emma by Elizabeth Flock. I don't know what to say about this book except for the last 15 pages are amazing! After reading those pages I wanted to read the book all over again. It is definitely a different read, but I did enjoy it.
I am staying busy with photography and loving every minute of it. I really think this could grow into quite a hobby/obsession with me. I love seeing all of the different ways to photograph a child or family. I am always thinking of my next shoot, just wondering what will come of it!
We only have 38 days left in Utah! I can't believe that our home of 4 years is going to be left behind us forever. We are actually excited to move, mainly because there are so many new adventures ahead of us. We are constantly talking about our new home that is 3 times the size of where we live now and everything that we are going to do to it. We are headed to Billings for about 6 weeks to hang out with the family. After all, we won't be seeing them very much in the next 4 years. We hope that we can somehow get our fill (which is obviously impossible) in the short time that we are there.
Then we are headed to Omaha, NE around the first of July!!!! We will be living across the street from Aaron, Erika, Brevin and Jace and can't wait to see them constantly. 
We have lots coming up and can't wait for the changes to come. We are so thankful for everyone here in Utah and will miss them all so much, but we also look forward to those that we will be meeting soon!

Nonono - it's not sad that blogging is a hobby! (it better not be, anyway!) But I do wish you would put those books down a little more often and neglect your blog a little less often! Especially since you're going to be living so far away for so long... you need to get used to being a frequent blogger!! My brother is graduating from dental school in two months. It's amazing how fast it goes. And know he thinks he knows EVERYTHING about teeth. He's joining a practice in Denver. He said there's lots of opportunities there. Keep that in mind, in case you decide not to spend the rest of your life in MT :)

It's so fun to think of the future when you have a good place to live and a good hubby to live with. You are smart and enthusiastic so you won't have problems anywhere you go or end up. Congrats to Cody! Give your Mom a hug for me.

I was starting to get worried! Glad you're alive and well! How exciting to have all these big changes in the next few months. But like Misti said, we want to hear all about them to keep the blog updated!
