We're Moving!

I'm having a hard time being motivated to update the blog.  Our computer 'update' has turned out to be less than user friendly in the movie making department and blogger has decided to make annoying changes to postings as well.  It's losing the fun factor. . .

Anyway, it's been a busy month.  It's offical, we're moving to Salt Lake City so Brad can start a new job April 1st.  We didn't look for this opportunity, it just came knocking.  But, it's a promotion and it will give Brad a chance to learn more in the management arena.  So, he's going from being an auto claims supervisor to being the state manager for auto claims for Utah.  Wow!  Now that all the formalities are over, we know we have about a month and a half to get there.

So, we decided to celebrate Brad's promotion las weekend by eating at The Fort in Morrison.  It is a famous restaurant that serves wild game.  It's very Colorado.  We had rattlesnake cakes (like a crab cake but with rattlesnake meat!), quail, buffalo and elk.  It was really good and the atmosphere was fun as well.   
It was also our first time to go out without Addy. She spent the time with our neighbors, Pat, Kesa and Olivia.  She did really well and enjoyed seeing all of Olivia's toys!  Pat and Kesa are expecting Baby #2 at the end of April so they were excited to practice an evening with two kids.  Luckily it went well!



Here was the inside of the courtyard at The Fort.  It is an adobe style complex patterned after an old fort.  It was really neat and beautiful tucked up against the red rocks of Morrison.

Here's us inside the restaurant before we got our food. 


In addition to all that's been going on with us moving to SLC, Addy turned 5 months old.  She is getting so big and she is so much fun.  She isn't crying as much when she goes down for naps because she's discovered she rather likes sucking her thumb and playing with her hair in her crib.  She doesn't do it at any other time but it is sooo cute in her crib. 

We'd appreciate your prayers as we prepare for this big change.  We'll have a lot to do and it will be a HUGE change in a lot of ways.  Please pray for wisdom, peace and God's provision of a place to live there.

Thank you!

  1. Congrats, Kim! Wow, that's a big move! You'll have to look for a house with another white picket fence :-). Anyway, I am very happy for you all. Addy is adorable by the way and getting so big. Take care!
