Long time coming....

New house outside. We have lemon tree, orange tree, and magnolias.
Living room is big enough for our computer!
Papa and Gabby Easter.

I know it has been forever since I blogged. It has been very crazy for us. We finally got a place in California. Ben and I got moved in on Monday. I have been unpacking since. But we are here and now we are waiting for our little ones to join us. They will be here on Monday evening. They have been with Grandma & Grandpa Syphus. Nana and Papa picked them up today. They are taking them to the Breast Cancer walk up in S.L.C.. I am so very sad I can not be there. It was a very inspirational experience last year.
I will get everyone up to speed since the last blog. Ben had been commuting every weekend. It sucked for him so bad. And for me it was not fun at times. Gabby had to have surgery back in March. She had her tonsils, adenoids removed and ear tubes. It was a very long two days. She of course would NOT take her meds right. So she had to stay over night. It was hard for her. She didn't eat for days. And her breath was horrid. We called it Dragon Breath. It was deadly.
Gabby had her 2nd Birthday! It was very quiet. She got a few things but she wasn't feeling that well. She had her surgery 4 days prior. It is so crazy that my baby is now 2. Since her surgery she has become a talker. She is insane. Chatter this and that. She got new glasses, too. She is our little taz!
We did Easter with Nana & Papa with Grandma Great and the Strong's. It was fun and quiet. I was glad to have one last Easter with Grandma. The kids had a good time coloring eggs and finding them. They got bunk beds for Easter. They are so excited to have them. We still have to put that together.
We had our 7 year itch back in April. We didn't do anything. Ben was here in Cali and I was in St. George. It sucked but we have made it. 7 years. I love my husband and even though we have our moments (ALOT!) I still couldn't imagine a life with anyone else. He is a good man and has provided for us. I love you, Benni!
It will soon be my 30th! Yes, I said it, 3-0! Blah! GGAAA! What the!!!!! I am getting OLD!
Life is going crazy and this new adventure is going to be interesting. I don't know what to think. I am so very tired. Packing and unpacking in a week is kicking my arce!
I promise to keep up on the blog. But that's it for now, enjoy some pics.
Gabby and Cash Easter clothes and basket on their heads. Their way of saying "NO!"

I'm so jealous of the yard on your new house! and your fruit trees, that's so cool. I hope you get to relax a bit while you settle in, moving is so freaking hectic! and a long distance move at that. I'm so glad you updated and posted pics of your new place, it's a treat to see how you guys are doing, even more so now that you are far far away :)
