Tennessee

We are all happy and healthy in our new State of Tennessee! We move to our new house the middle of this month! I am so excited. Ethan is loving school but he misses his friends in Alaska. Matthew started primary and loves to sing all the new songs he is learning. They haven't picked up the accent yet but I know it's coming. Kreighton's job is going great. I am always so proud of his hard work. I love our ward. The ladies here are great! Of course the shopping doesn't hurt either ;) We are so thankful to have to Rosales family so close. It feels like we live next to family. We are very excited to have my sister Elizabeth and her baby Jet moving here next week! We wish her husband Andy was coming along too, but he is serving our country over in Cuba. Our thoughts and prayers go out to him daily and we hope for a visit from him soon.

MOVING!!

We are MOVING again!! This time to NASHVILLE Tennessee!! WOOHOO!! We leave December 16th for our Christmas trip to Vegas and we aren't coming back. We are selling almost everything we own. We are only taking what we can fit in our minivan (gulp). I'm excited yet sad and nervous all rolled into one. I will miss my Alaska family very much. We hope to be able to meet up with them when they visit south. We have had a busy couple of years and I am hoping this will be our final stop... Well, for at least a few years ;) Baby #3 is still good and cookin' at 21 weeks. I think the thing I am most excited about in this move is I get to have an EPIDURAL!!!! We also get to buy a house and all new furniture! Shopping is always fun! Target here I come!!!

no pictures :(

For some reason my computer won't let me post pistures! BOO!!! it shuts down the internet everytime i try.

Ethan came home from school and said, "We learned to not play with matches at school today. But I don't know what matches are! How am I supposed to know not to play with them?!

LOL he was very concerned. Should I show the kid or was he just trying to find my secret stash? Either way it gave me a good laugh. Kids are so funny.

Bubble Feeding Humpback Whales


video

This is how humpback whales feed. I wasn't sure where they were going to come up so it's a bit cut off. I did better the second time around.

I couldn't believe just how close they were getting to the boat!

This was SO AMAZING!!!! Thank you Mattson family for letting us tag along!

Clover Pass Resort Whales













Matthew and I went out to Clover Pass Resort today to do some whale watching. It was so fun to see all the whales! I was going to pull Ethan out of school to come with us but decided against it. Bad choice. I should have done it. We tried going back after school for him to see but they had left by then. Maybe next time.
