What's up now?

Morgan and I are really having a great time here. We love it. The church is great and the people are sooooo nice! I just had my orientation at Target... yes, I got the job. I'm really excited. It feels like a great atmosphere and a great company to work for... plus 10 percent discount :) Morgan is taking 3 Engineering classes and 1 computer science class. Can you say... crazy? Yes. He is crazy, smart, and I love him!!!!! These are pictures from Friday night. We walked to the beach and sat on some rocks and just talked. It was awesome... and surprisingly not too cold.
Look at the sky!

Not only is he smart, funny, and good looking, he likes to lift huge logs for fun! What a man.

Saturday was one of the best days we have had here. We walked to the beach and ate Chinese food on the sand. Morgan also practiced his bird chasing skills and worked on his 100 meter dash times... and I watched him. So fun :)

Then we went to the public library and checked out books and a movie. We can get discounts to museums in Boston. Can't wait to use them!

I'm just going to give a shout out to good husbands... namely... mine. For those of you who don't know him, he is probably the most caring, sweet, loving, and genuine man I've ever met. Our first week here he gave me a "Congrats on your new house" card with a note. The other day he brought home a white rose (my favorite) for no special occasion. Today I came home and he had cleaned up the house. I while ago I went to get something out of the freezer and there was a note that said "I love you" on it. Oh, and he does the dishes all the time. And there are so many other little things he has done. I'm just so grateful that God allowed our paths to cross and that we both had the courage to do what we knew was right. I know its just the first 4 months but everyday is a new comfirmation that I am doing what is right for me and I have the most perfect person for me right by my side all the time. So give it up for amazing husbands! Tell them you love them and appreciate all the little things they do for you... I'll do it too!

Day Doo mom and dad! :)

Ok, so moving into an apartment with no car isn't as bad as you think... kind of. My parents came to help us move in and we had sooooo much fun. First, a huge shout out to all you target gift card givers; we loved them. After we bought all our stuff we decided just to do it. We pushed our target carts about a mile to our apartment! :) It was so funny. We don't look like hicks do we? haha. For the record, we took the target carts back.

The boys used their man skills to build...

And the girls went shopping! My mom and I went and got groceries... and seriously almost bought the whole store. We didn't get pics of this event because we were all holding on to probably about 8 Shaw's bags in each hand... and yes, we walked it home. I think we made a great first impression on the neighborhood! But we did make some good dinner. Stuffing chicken, potatoes and bread!

Then we got this great deal on a table through craigslist... still no car. So we went over and each carried a chair back with us. :) No pics because our hands were full. ha.

We eventually rented a zip car... which was initially a nightmare but then turned out ok to pick up the rest of the table, a couch, and a chest that Morgan and I repainted black. This is the final product...

It's just the perfect place for Morgan and I. Hopefully as time goes on more pictures and decorations will be put up but for now it's what we call home. God really played a role in getting us here and settled. I love this place.

ps. "Day Doo" means Thank you in Kody language :)

The Pope's in Boston!

Well, we're not actually IN Boston; we're in Revere which is about a 45 min. T ride for Morgan to get to Harvard. But we love it here. We are 5 min. walk from the beach and a 5.234 min. walk from the T :) This is us on our walk to church. 3 miles there!... we found a bus for the next week. Morgan insisted on this picture. He's so cute.

We also saw this bench on our way... haha. wow. Enough said.

The reception

Finally got the pics up!! :)
