Isn't October just the best month to be born in? I love everything about this month: the cool fall breeze, orange and yellow leaves falling through the sky like confetti, the thrill of Halloween with carved pumpkins and lots of treats, and getting to pull out your favorite sweaters in preparation for cooler weather. And on top of all of that, David and I get to celebrate our birthdays just nine days apart, the 8th and the 17th. It doesn't get any better!
So this past Wednesday was David's 25th birthday which means that he can now officially rent a car. About a year ago we took a trip out to California and although we were married, about to have a baby, and we owned a house, neither one of us was old enough to rent a car! So this Thanksgiving we're flying out to California again and now that we have officially arrived at a responsible age, we will be renting a car. How exciting.
So Happy Birthday to my sweet husband David. We celebrated at Chili's with some of our friends (thanks to all who came!) and had some desserts at our house afterwards. I have a picture in my camera but it is temporarily misplaced, so I'll have to post it later. We had a great time thanks to good friends and good food.
When are we moving?? Well, we still don't know. Our buyer is having a difficult time with his bank which is to be expected in times like these. He's just been approved by the underwriter, which is great, but now the bank wants to go back and review everything one more time. They have five days to give us a final answer and once we get the go ahead, we can close within one day. SO all of my family is coming next weekend for my birthday and we might recruit them to help us move as well! If not this weekend, then the next. We'll keep you posted.
We're so lucky to have such great friends! We will miss our closest friends here in Sugar House. I know it will be hard transitioning into a new neighborhood and a new ward, but I feel like we're moving to the right place. It will be a fun adventure.
Love you all!
