Windows Live Writer

So I know how I said I was going to go back to my original blog on spaces, but I miss your comments so much. When I was publishing the other day, I discovered that I could publish to blogger using the free window live writer program. It makes it all so much easier when it comes to posting pictures and slideshows. I can upload all at once and not one at a time. Going forward you will continue to see me here on blogger and I promise to do no more switching!

Our Little Swimmer

When we moved to SC we got Lizzy into some swim lessons as we swim almost everyday. When she started her lessons she would do more in class than she would with us in the pool. Toward the end of the lessons she would do more with us than in class. Monday, June 21st, we went swimming for FHE. She was clinging to me like I was going to let her drown. However, I got her to trust me and then I let go and she has been a little fish ever since. We are so proud of her! This video is from June 22 as we didn’t have the camera with us the first day.

Happy Father’s Day

We are lucky to have the best Dad in our family. We really couldn’t ask for anything more from Adam. The kids love him and can’t wait for him to come home from work everyday and maul him as soon as he walks in the door. To celebrate father’s day they were nice enough to let him sleep in. Lizzy decided she wanted to wake him up by roaring at him and I told her it wouldn’t be very nice so she opted to go, “tweet tweet, tweet tweet”. Where does she come up with these things? Anyways, we had a great Sunday with Dad at church and at home and finished off with a walk in the county park. We love you Dad!

Happy 4th Birthday Lizzy!

Lizzy turned 4 this past Thursday. She wanted 2 things for her birthday: a Belle cake and a mermaid Barbie so we complied. i kind of cheated on the cake this year, but I thought I was a genius. She loved the Barbie and the cake so it was a success!

We love our Lizzy so much! She is so much fun and is a great big sister to James. We couldn’t ask for a better girl.

Going Back

Well friends, I have tried blogger for blogging and it just doesn't work for me. The picture upload is what has done it so I am moving back to msn spaces. I know some of you will not be able to comment if you don't have a windows live id (you can get one though) and I will miss it. Please keep visiting us here:

Tulips & the Temple

Our friends invited us to go and see the open house for the LDS Vancouver Temple last weekend. http://www.ldschurchtemples.com/vancouver/ . I was excited for Lizzy to be able to see the inside of a temple as ones that are dedicated are only open to those with a special recommend. On our way we stopped at the annual tulip festival held in Mt. Vernon. It was a beautiful day.

The temple was a good experience as well. It could have been a little better if we had let James run around for 30 minutes or so before the tour. The true problem was a lady with her guide dog was on our tour so every room we went to he would yell "Dog" at the top of his lungs and run to pet the dog. I truly felt sorry for those who were there to really learn about the temple. Adam and I tried to remove him from the room as the tour guide spoke. I also remember entering the celestial room in the temple and having such an overwhelming feeling of peace. Lizzy really enjoyed the trip to and keeps asking when we can go back.
We spend the night in Vancouver and headed to the aquarium in the morning due to the rain.

After lunch it quit raining long enough for us a to do an awesome hike across a suspension bridge before catching dinner and heading home. Thanks to the Hyuns and Kersavages for a great trip!

Move Date

Finally, 2 months and 11 days later we have a pretty firm move date. Coming back to the US has been wonderful and we have loved spending time with our family, but we are sick of living out of a suitcase so we are excited that we will be moving on or around May 4th to Charelston SC. It will be a great adventure. What am I looking forward to the most? the beach, 10 minutes away from my house!
