So it has been awhile since my last post. We have moved twice in the last 5 months. We moved from a horrid neighborhood into a house in the downtown historic district. It was a great area. However, our landlord refused to give us a lease, (we later found out this was a habit of his and that he had booted out the previous 3 residents with only 10 days notice) our house had termites (all the neighbors said he has known for awhile), the heater was jacked up and we were paying about $400 a month for the electric. Mind you this was only about 1100 sq feet tops. So we decided to get out of there. So 2 moves x's 5 people....while working full time. Rich did what he could, but his back is still doing pretty crappy. So thanks to Dad, Mom, Page, Kait , and Devin, we were out of there in a matter of 4 hours. It's great having willing family members, their muscles, and their trucks.

The New Place

Well all, we are settling in fine. It is a much better place and the vibe is awesome, and not trashy:) Ok, so it is an old house in the historic district (a couple blocks from the Tabernacle) so it dosent have some of the newer things. Namely a DISHWASHER!!!!!!! This sucks rocks! With a family of 5 are you kidding me!? Anyone who knows me or has lived with me, knows I dont do dishes when I have a washer, now this! KILL ME NOW! Well I have tried to be very diligent in doing them at night so I can stay all caught up, but honestly, it's only a mtter of time till it gets so bad that I have no counter space. We all know that is what is going to happen. At least I can admit it. You know that is the first step.

Moving is not fun!

That pretty much says it all. Moving 8 years worth of crap and 3 kids worth of toys etc, is horrid! I suckered a couple of family members...(cough, cough, dad and Page) to come help...hee hee! They didn't have any idea what they were getting into:) Well, wish me luck, this BITES!!!

Ok, since Amanda has yet to be a blogger, I will tell those that don't know yet. My baby brother had his first baby. She was born on September 11th at I believe 7:38 pm.(Page or Kait can correct me if i am wrong) She weighed in a a whopping 8'11! Amanda is a tough chick! Her name is Victoria Abcde Goodrich. They are calling her Abby. Yes Abcde, sound it out. She is BEAUTIFUL! All I have are pictures on my phone, so until I see her, I will nag page and Kait to take one and post it! Ok people it is 10:35 and I have to be up at 4 for work, so nighty-night!
