We Love Texas

Dan drove the long 20 hours to texas all by himself and our awesome Maxima that has over 260,000 miles road like a champ! We were glad he made it safe. Aurora and I followed him 2 days later. I was a baby sissy boo boo pants saying bye to my mom and dad I just love them so much and am going to miss them so much...the plane ride went great. Aurora was super social and we were best friends with everyone on the plane. Luckily it wasn't crowded so we were able to move all around. She looked out the window and started going To To To To witch translated means tweet tweet tweet. We made a great friend Scott who is from Dallas and Aurora was putting her Tiara on him it was funny. Our Apt. is nice it is big and opened with a fun balcony that we color with our side walk chalk daily. We have gone to the pool almost everyday it is freezing cold water but that doesn't stop a 1 1/2 year old. We are playing with our great friends all day. It is pretty much a vacation for us two girls. Dan is out doing his sales and doing awesome. We love that he is such a great worker so we can shop and lay out ;) hee hee
A really cute story when we first walked into our new home for the summer within the first 2 min. Aurora walked over to the pantry opened it up and said Bompa... were Bompa with he arms up in a question. My Dad a long time ago came over and hide in our pantry at home... Aurora loved it and obviously hasn't forgotten her sweet Bompa. It melted my heart.


Waking up for the first time in Dallas Texas. She played in her room and came out wearing her pretty necklaces.

okay Aurora has always been a big flirt with the boys, but her and Nick have a special little connection. From the very first she has just loved nick to death... she always runs to him and gives him the biggest longest cuddels. it is so sweet. he is really cute with her, So when we got to the apartments she was pretty excited to see her boyfriend. We love ya Nick.

Waiting to board the plane in Salt Lake


If you look close you can see dan packed tight in between all our stuff.




This is what it is like to pack with my fun little girl. I would have a box ready to put stuff in and look down and it would be gone ;)

I'am so glad you guys are loving it. It sounds like fun to have a new adventure and you can't get better than being at the pool everyday. I miss our daily trips to St. George to lay out at quail. That summer was a blast! (even if we had creepy peeping toms. Your little girl is so sweet. Good luck to you, have a great time!

Larua I didn't know you guys were going so soon! That makes me feel even worse about missing you when you were in Cedar. I'm jealous that you have a pool to lay-out by. Your little girl is adorable.
