Life's about change. . .nothing ever stays the same!

It has been an interesting experience as we are building our new home. It has been a step-by-step process: Step 1. Getting the guts to put a for sale sign up in front of our house. I was mostly nervous about how my young women would respond. Yes, the sign was stolen several times, but we recovered it all but once. Step 2. Showing the house, which wasn't my favorite thing to do. It seemed like realtors would call just as we were sitting down to eat dinner, and they would say, "Can I bring a client to see your house in 15 minutes?" Step 3. Getting offers, counter-offers, and finally accepting an offer on Halloween night. Step 4. Lining up a rental home (thank you KSL.com) and signing to purchase our lot for our new house. Step 5. Inspection and Appraisal which took place while we were in Disneyland. Thank goodness for good friends who happened to have our house key and helped with this step. Step 6. Getting home from Disneyland and packing like crazy so we could move in a week and a half. Step 7. Moving day, the day after Thanksgiving. We had many wonderful friends and family that helped with the moving and cleaning that day. The trampoline moving was my favorite! Step 8. Trying to settle Treson for bed in a new house. This step took nearly two weeks to accomplish! Step 9. Deciding which boxes to unpack and which to haul to my brother Chris' house in Willard. He graciously offered us his third car garage to store our "stuff". Step 10. Meet with builder, meet with another builder, pick a house plan, pick a different house plan, meet with builder and make changes to house plan, and hopefully the next step is beginning the building of our new home. YAY! It has been a journey so far, and I know we are just beginning. We are doing our best to ENJOY the JOURNEY!
