Lots of people have asked how our house is coming along. I've been terrible about taking pictures of it and updating. I drove by today and took a picture and then walked to the park near our house and stopped to push Tyson in a swing. They should be doing drywall next week and they gave us the closing date so far of November 12 which I'm so excited about. We've been kind of cramped here and have been infested by bugs, I think from the cockroach family. I had a visitor in my bed recently. Gross! Anyways, here are pictures of our house now and Tyson sporting some killer shades. He seriously is the happiest baby. He's learning to play by himself more now that he can sit up and he is just all smiles most of the day.


Yesterday I got to go and pick out the color of our cabinets, countertops, carpet and linoleum. It was so fun! Scott let me go by myself, because after 4 years of marriage, he's learned his opinion doesn't matter much when it comes to decorating and because he trusts I won't turn our house into a crazy looking place. It's probably not a very good picture but this will be our flooring and carpet and the little square is our countertops.

We have enjoyed Omaha so far and it's been a fairly easy transition. Our ward has been great. We've been invited over to different family's homes for dinner or games. They are just so friendly and outgoing here which is great. Fall is soon approaching and that means winter. I seriously get a pit in the bottom of my stomach when I think about it. It's going to be so cold...no one has told me otherwise, they just tell me its really bad. I think I may become a hermit in the winter months. Oh well.
