it has been a while i know...

so I will give a quick update and put up mostly pictures....

Josh...has made a decision....he is going to be a Ute and go to University of Utah.  He is very much excited to attend this school as he has already been working on credits that will transfer, what he has left to take, applying for FAFSA and scholarships, and finding a job within his field.  Hm....josh just got back from 2 trips...an anthropology trip and a camping trip to Hoko.  he seemed to have a good time and he came home with perdium.

Adelynn rolls all over the place now and has learned how to scoot sometimes backwards and around in a circle while on her tummy.  she likes to go to her tummy from sitting up.  she is a very curious baby and always likes to have mommy in the room with her.  she has tried some new foods of which she likes...macaroni, apricots, steamed broccoli, and some others.  She has 6 teeth now...2 on th bottom and 4 on the top.  the ones on the top all came in within 9 days of each other...it was crazy!  she did pretty well for teething just sometimes was she quite cranky!

Katie had a wonderful trip to Nebraska to see her family.  Adelynn did really well on the airplane.  she even got to sit up front after everyone got off of the plane and take a few pictures of there...even with the captain of the plane.  we had a good experience in the air port for once.  in Nebraska we did a lot of shopping, played the wii, did some arts and crafts, met new people, spent quality time with her family, made memories, and went to the zoo.

Adelynn covered her self up while sleeping...

mommy went to get her and found this...

we went on a family date last night to chuck e cheese...we have been saving tickets and now have over 800 for adelynn to spend when she is bigger...

PARK...

so we went on another walk to the beach and then went to play at the park.  this beach was a rocky beach in olympia so adey of course tried to eat the rocks and sea shells.  this was also her first time to go on an actual slide and a swing.  it was fun and josh and i look forward to taking adey to the park as she grows!

josh got in...

so before i post some pictures and what we have been doing for the past 2 weeks...Josh was accepted to University of Utah (his 2nd choice).  So so far he has gotten into 2 of his 3 schools.  we are waiting to hear from BYU which should be by the end of this month...keep your fingers crossed.  he really wants to go there and double major in archeology and socioculture.  it should still take the same amount of time which is 2 years.  he is even thinking about getting his masters there which would be great for us too!  so we have about 4 1/2 short months left in washington and a semi long to do list to see and do before we leave!  we are going to miss the green and some of our favorite places to eat and sight see (especially the amazing zoo in seattle) but family is more important and josh has many more opportunities for our family to accomplish down in utah like buying a house and making more money so i can stay home and josh really getting into his passion of a career and being near family.  those four things are important to us and we feel this is the right move...even though we said we would never be utah again and utah here we come....
