Home Sweet Home!


Tuesday, May 26, 2009 was a big day for our family. That was the day that Woody and I signed our life away for our new home. We now reside in Middleton, Idaho and hope to reside here for a really, really long time. We are out in the country on 5 acres where people still drive around in covered wagons. Just kidding! The country is what I grew up in so for me it's familiar but I do miss some of the city conveniences. For Woody and the kids it's a little different because the city is really all they know other than visiting grandparents or other relatives. So far we love it though. It's so quiet, we have space to breathe in and even our dog, Sage, thinks it's great. Mind you, it is a lot of work but it makes for good family time. We have some great neighbors too. Right next to us our neighbors have a horse arena where they do steer roping quite often. It's fun to watch and the kids think it is great. Ethan just got his first cowboy hat and Alys is already asking to put it on her list. As for Benjamin, dirt and water are right up his alley! I told Woody we traded the soft sounds of the symphony for brawling cowboys. Gotta love it! We'll keep you posted and try to get some more pictures.
