Boxes, Boxes and More Boxes!!

Well last week I finally got a good load of boxes for Old Navy. They are the best moving boxes and plus they are free. What better deal can you get. So we have started to process of packing......well I have. I take that back Jake has helped pack up some of the kitchen. I am a pretty fast packer. It does not seem to take me very long to get things done. When we moved up here from LA I packed the entire out in a week. And now I could do it again, I am going a bit slower this time because I have more time and we can come back and get things even after the "Big Move". But I always have everything ready by moving day. I hate helping some one move and its just like a free for all, just grab whatever. No that's not how we roll.

Also in the mix of all the packing. We have so many other things going on this past week and the coming. Jake and I sang at a wedding this morning. A guy that his youth group went to NY with on Missions Trips got married. So he wanted all the youth that could come that he ever took to NY. It was a nice small wedding. But of coarse, for those who know Jake, we didn't practice our song until last night. I of coarse had been practicing but I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to sing it because I have been sick and haven't really had even much of a speaking voice. But it went well.

Okay well my break is over so off to finish filling the boxes. :)

A fresh start!!

Oh I forgot to mention the worst and well best thing that just recently happen, within the month. Well lets start with the good news. As of August 1st Jake is now officially full-time(part-time) at our church. He is technically part-time(4 days a week) but does not have any other job so I call it full-time. We are very excited. I joke and say that now he gets paid to play his guitar. :) lol well on Sundays he does. :) We will be starting very soon his licensing process with Foursquare. So then he will have the pastor title. :)

So along with that. He got a new Mac Book Pro ( I think, something big that he can do music stuff on) So he transfered all of his setting off of our computer on to his new one. So now I get ours all to myself. After he did that it mine was running kinda slow so he shut it down....... and well it never turned back on again. Lukily we have AppleCare so he called them they couldn't get it to work so they sent up a box. I was so praying that it would be an easy fix and we would get it back and ALL of my stuff would still be there. WELLLLL....... we go it back on tuesday and I turned it on and what did I hear. The new start up programming music!! I could have thrown it out the window. They replaced the entire hard drive. I lost EVERYTHING!!!! All of my settings, the pics ( that I hadn't put on the internet or backed up to our other hard drive.), my bookmarks, files, address book.....ect...... Like I said EVERYTHING!!!! Its realy frustrating having to start from scratch. I almost didn't even feel like doing it.

But I am slowly, slowly, :) getting it back. You know its rough when you can't even remember what you had and were to find it. Cause you are so use to just clicking a button. Oh well. I guess a fresh start is good sometimes. But it won't happen again. I am now backing everything up with out external hard drive useing time machine. So if it every happens again all I have to do it plug it in and it will bring up EVERYTHING!! All I have to say it Thanks God for AppleCare cause we didn't have to pay anything. Okay there was my crisis for the month, I HOPE!!!!

Catch UP!!

Ok well I have been really bad at keeping this thing up the past 2 months. I can't really give an excuse why. So let me see if I can catch up a bit.

We went camping 4th of July weekend. Happy Harbinger Getaway!!! It was very relaxing and fun.
At the end of July to the beginning of August was Soulfest. GREAT TIMES, AS ALWAYS!!!! Its was a little wet, lol butyou can still rock in the rain, right??

I am having a hard time really thinking right now. I have pink eye in BOTH eyes and the med i using makes it had to see and they are really itching me today. UGH!!! (Thanks for giving it to me JAKE!)

Anyway..... on a lighter note we will be moving September 1st!!! WICKED EXCITED!!!! I can't post pics until my parents come on the 7th. Cause I don't want them to see it till they get here. But its beautiful and has amazing views, and can't wait for everyone to see the place. PARTIES AT OUR HOUSE (sorry no cable though) !!!

I will be sending out an email of our new address soon. I will also post some pics soon too. Ally is now 9 months, Jakes birthday is on Sunday and Kyndal will be 4 on Wednesday. So I am sure I will have alot to write aobut in the next coupld of days...............

Ally 7 months



Ally turned 7 month on my birthday, June 6th. It seems like she is doing thing a little slower that Kyndal did. She isn't crawling yet. That doesn't really keep here from getting around though. She also isn't pulling up, she does try but isn't successful yet. She is starting to get a nice little scream when she isn't getting what she wants thought. :) But we still love her!!

These are 2 pics of Kyndal around the same age. I love to push up pic. She still likes to do push ups. Crazy kid. :) Sorry for the poor quality. Our camera was not as advanced as it is now.

The KKK's.....

Ok Well The other day the KKK's well just KK. :) where coming down on me cause I haven't blogged in like 2 weeks. So to make the KKK happy. LOL ( I like that name for them) I will. Its been a bit crazy at work this past week cause we had our annual spring banquet Thursday. It went very well and Im kinda glad it is over. On the other hand Kyndal started pre K on Wednesday and is going very well. I was a bit nervous cause she is only 3 1/2 but we wanted to try it cause it would help our babysitting situation. So she will be going Mon, Wed, and Fri, Just the days that I am there. She will be in the Pre K room in the morning and then in the Kindergarten room in the afternoon for the extended day. She is really loving it and I think it will just get better as we get in more of a routine.


We had some much needed family time this weekend. We went to the Boston Aquarium. I was nice to get away for the day, even is the aquarium is kinda disappointing in size. Kyndal really liked the Penguins. The exhibit was closed so we could only see them through this little room so that sucked. But it was still good!! Well I guess I don't really have much more to say.
Ohh Ally is 5 Months today. I will try to do some compairing pics. Maybe Tuesday. We got an extra hard dive so we pic a big chunk of our pic on there so I think Kyndals are on there so I have to actually plug in the laptop to get them. So I'll try......



This is a pic of Kyndal and Jake when we wnet bowling for Max's birthday.... I love it!!!
