Neighbors - can't live with them.

Or it seems that they can't live with us.

The neighbors to the east have moved out once again. Since we have lived here (2 years) - we have seen 4 neighbors move out. I know we have a little yapping dog, and I might not mow the lawn every 7 days, but I didn't think we were that bad to live next too.

So the neighbors moved out on Thursday and on Friday a new family moved it. I went over and meet them, and when I asked how they were, the father informed me that this was only a temporary move and they only expect to live there for a month or two - so within a min of converstation with me he's already planning on moving out. This morning a for sale by owner sign is in the yard.


Oh, by the way - I am typing this from the couch in the hospital. Lisa is sleeping, but dilated to a 6!!!

She's here!!!

My sister Jeni had her cute baby a week ago (July 26th). Clayton and I were spending the weekend at Bear Lake at a family reunion for his family when we heard the news. We went to the hospital to see her when we got back. I don't know if being there with a newborn made me more excited or more scared. It has been really helpful to be able to spend some time with her this last week. Jeni's son James (2 years old) is adjusting to having a little sister but he is so cute with her. He gives her little kisses and will try to help with whatever he can. Baby Anna is really fun though. Whenever I hold her, Benjamin starts to kick her. They are already playing together.
Today marks 1 month to go for Benjamin to make his big debut. I am excited but scared at the same time. I hope he doesn't come early because I start school on the 18th and I want to get a few weeks with the students. I have to go back to meetings on the 12th so my summer is almost over. So sad.
Houston is recovering nicely from his little injury and that makes me happy. Hopefully that will never happen again.
