What?

Again it's been quite awhile since I wrote on my blog. The last little while my husband and I have been trying to make life changing decisions. So all my time was spent thinking about it or trying not to think about it. For those who don't know we decided to move back to Cedar City. The last year we both felt has been a disappointment and a waste. We knew we had to do something else. We chose to move to Cedar for quite a few reasons. But it's going to take some sacrifices on our part to make it possible. For example, I have to move down here practically without Abe until he can find work down here and we get someone to rent our condo. We thought about selling but considering how the market is we think that might not be possible. So if anyone knows of someone who who wants a place in Eagle Mountain let me know. So of course we are going to be tight on money for awhile. The funny thing is I keep looking at getting a job because I don't want to give up Netflix. Can we all say how spoiled I am?
Gwen is starting to act like a little girl more than a baby. It is so fun to watch her now. She is cute and goofy. And I can understand her a lot more. She still throws tantrums like a two year old but that is her age. She still limits what she says though. Every animal is a bear, cow or bird, every person is 'Daddy', and every drink is 'water too'. But at least she is using her words.
I went through a time where I started writing a story. During the summer my family does a summer school for the nieces and nephews to keep them busy. My sister Katy did one online that was a writing class so I pretended to participate. Now I went back to the assignment and started working on it again. Maybe if I practice enough I'll be able to get better at writing. If you couldn't tell by my blogs, I'm really bad at it. My sister Christy Hardman has a couple of books out. "Against the Giant" and "Santa's Secret" My brother has a book out on Amazon called "The Living Dead the Reapers Reward" under the name of Oliver Church. My sister Katy is trying to get a book published and my sister Kari is writing one on how to get your kids to work. And to top it all off my brother John thought up a book and sat down and wrote it in three days. He pretty much can do anything he wants to and he's good at it. I'm so jealous. So I guess you could say my family is a writing family. I just can't do it very well. I wrote a short book years ago that ended up sounding more like a screen play than a book. That tells you the extent of my talents. Maybe someday if I'm daring I'll put it on my blog for people to read and make fun of. Anyway now I'm really rambling on again so I'll stop before I start boring you all to death. And I'll try to write again before too long.

It's good that Gwen will be able to get to know the cousins on the Hunt side. I hope you guys have luck in finding a place to live and a job soon so your family can be together again. It was hard for me when Ben was in Panguitch, and he only had an hour drive home.

I hope I wasn't one of the reasons you left... We realy miss you up here already Jane!

No Jimmy you aren't one of the reasons. In fact if I could have lived with you then I would have stayed. But that would have made your mom crazy. I'll have to think of a way to get you to come visit us here though during the summer. We'd love to have you.

I totally forgot you were in Eagle Mountain!! And now you're moving?? Well, I understand. You have to do what is best for you and your family. I'd like to see you before you go. Do you have dates planned yet for when you're leaving?
