homesick more than ever for our good friends in Boise

Okay, this is my first attempt at blogging....I hesitate to begin on more thing - but after Amber showed me how to set this up....I need to give it a try. I just love reading what is going on with all of our good friends and family, and I think it is a wonderful way to keep a journal of our family and every time I read Amber and Brent's blog, Jack thinks that he is Carter and wants me to tell him what Jack is doing in each picture. Well, with that here I go....

We just arrived home after spending a week up in Boise to do yard work and sign with another realtor on our home in Boise. Hopefully, it will sell soon! It was so wonderful to see our friends, family, and old neighbors. Leaving Boise was just as difficult this time as it was when we moved six months ago! We had such a great time visiting and seeing everyone, that for a moment I forgot that I no longer lived there! It was very surreal to be back in our old house, now all vacant. Jack had a tremendously fun time bowling in it! Nate did so much work to get the yard looking nice again! So we all have our fingers crossed and are continuing to pray that it will SELL!

We stopped at Jodi's on our way up to Boise...and Eden was invited to spend the week with them. So of course she naturally would rather spend her time with her cousins than with mom and dad, and had a terrific time playing with them. When we arrived at Jodi's, Eden saw me and yelled, "Mom....I need to hide" and ran off into another room, so afraid that we would be leaving that very minute. Now that we are home, Eden finally has the time to talk to me. I do wish that we had more time to just play and visit with everyone, a week just isn't enough time to get everything done that needed to be done and get all the playing in that I wanted to do! But oh, how I loved being back in Boise! We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends and we miss you all dearly!

Now that we are home, we need to get ready for this week. Eden begins school and soccer practice tomorrow. Eden's been out of school for ten days. Nate is headed to Denver on Thursday for work. He has a lot of traveling scheduled for this month in preparation for his interviews in May. He is doing so well right now, and we will most likely know if we will be staying in Montrose by July. Which I can honestly say that I do not look forward to moving one bit! We love the size of Montrose and have made some great friends here..it's just so far away from our old friends and our family! But for now, we are here so I'm not going to worry about moving yet!
