Last Post!





This will be my last post in
Hurricane, till we get internet in Arizona. I decided that we needed to take some pics of our family before we left. Bridget and I bought these outfits for all of the boys to take pictures in, but we wont take pictures of the boys till tonight in them. So you will have to go look at her blog to see them.
As we have 3 more days left here I am having a hard time not to cry about when we have to leave our family. I know that we are only going to be 6 hours away, but it isn't the same as just dropping by whenever anymore. I am excited to start a new adventure for our family, and to become a better and stronger family. I am a little nervous to move to another town and not know anyone there. But I know that with my family and the lord, and our few friends down there, I will make it through. I am not excited to leave on wednesday and bawl most of the drive there, but we all have to go through some hard times and this will be mine for the moment. I am also not excited for the drive there cause I am very spoiled and DJ always drive. I just can imagine both of the kids crying and me not being able to do anything about it cause I am driving. I think that I am going to tell who ever owns moving trucks that they need to have back seats. So I would only have to take one kid. I am going to be listening to Elmo nonstop just to keep Trey quiet. And hopefully Pace will just sleep the whole way. It will be very interesting. I dont know how anyone can do it especially my cousin Holly when she visits she is always by herself driving her kids from oregan. She is just amazing! And here I am complaining about 6 hours. I'm sure that with daily phone calls to my family I will make it through. I have survived being away from them before I can do it again. I want them to know how much I love them! And how thankful I am for all that they do for me and my family. I know that this is just as hard for them to watch us leave because I am taking the grandkids from my parents, and two cousins away. I am sorry, and I know that you will always be there for us where ever we go. To all of my int. family and friends good luck with everything and I hope to see you all again soon. Sorry this sounds like a weird goodbye letter. Love you all!

Oh megan! First I love the pics! So cute!! A few tips-make sure the kids are both fed and clean when you leave try to stop every 2 1/2-to 3 hours. Even if they cry try to go to your point you picked out. Try to stay at your stops for at least 45 min to give them a break from the car-have a few suprises for Trey along the way and remember you can do it!! I was so worried and scared my first trip-Grant even followed me the first 8 hours. But you learn you are stronger then you think. just make sure you find your ward soon if you can before you leave-they will be a great help to your family. You can call me anytime if you need advice-Remember I have been away for over 5 years now. You'll always miss the family but it strengths your marriage and your family being on your own. Good luck and please be safe!!

Brad and I are so excited to see you guys. It's always great to have good friends move in. I know those feelings you are going through you just have to keep going forward and have faith. I know that is easier said then done. I think you will find that you love it here. Remember to keep it happy because the demands of your husbands school and work will come too quick and it's all to easy to be miserable. Posotive thinking goes a long way even if it doesn't come so naturally at this moment in your life. Can't wait to meet the boys they look darling in the new photos.

Hey Meg, I know exactly how you feel, we had to say those same goodbye's 3 years ago... It was so hard! My family was everything! I agree with the other comment, it's made us so much stronger. It was so good for our marriage. And hopefully neither of us will be away forever:) I hope your drive goes okay. GOOD LUCK!

Way cute pictures. Your family is adorable. You should be proud-

Wow! Arizona! That is crazy and exciting and scary all at the same time! I wish you luck in going there. I think you'll do great. Your family is so cute. Your boys are growing up so fast. Isn't it cool we both had two boys so close in age! Next time you come to Utah County. I realize that may be awhile give us a call. See ya!

Good luck in Arizona! I like it there, although it would be different living that far from home! Are you there for work for your husband? How long will you be there do you think? Your little boys are very cute!

I love your family pictures! They are so cute! But don't worry, you will seriously LOVE it here in Arizona! Even though Kade and I both miss St. George, we have had so much fun living down here! There is so much to do and we are seriously having the time of our lives right now... so be happy! You will love it! I wish we were gonna be living closer though! It's about 40 min away from you guys
