A beautiful Sunday!


Today was Kayden Darrel Christiansen's baby blessing. I am a proud Auntie of two now. It was so fun sitting in sacrament meeting with all the family. We took up three rows with Jeff's and my sister's family. I watched as the little ones where passed from Grandma to Aunt's and uncle's then to Grandpa and back through each member of the family. I really enjoyed hearing their testimonies about families and I felt really blessed to be part of a wonderful family, and live so close by again. I have so enjoyed being close to my side of the family again and enjoying the fun and games. But most of all I enjoy talking with and being silly with each of my siblings.

This week we will be moving into our new apartment here in Logan Utah. The idea that we are back in Logan is really quite strange to me. It is the same in many ways and yet in some of the same ways it has changed. For example though I new so many people from high school, I only occasionally run into a friend from growing up. Mostly it has been the same moving here as it is to move any where new. You still have to meet new people and make new friends. The bigest advantage to moving some where familiar is that you have a basic idea of where everything in town is. So our apartment is a tiny two bedroom apartment. However I think it will do fine for now. There are nice amenities. We have a pool and jucuzi. There is also a play ground and BBQ pits.

Gigi has gotten all her shots so now we can register for Kindergarten. She was not so excited about getting them but she was such a sport about the whole ordeal. One of the shots was a MMR which most of you know really hurts for quite some time. She didn't complain at all. She did notice when it finally stopped hurting later that evening. We went and checked out her school and played on the playground this last week. She is pretty set for school now thank you to Grand-Daddy and to Grandma Boggs's for sending all of her school supplies and of course the cute outfits too. Gigi picked out what she was going to wear the first day and then the following three days. We spent a whole afternoon writing her name on all of her school supplies. . She even has picked out a lunch box though we are not sure how often she will be using it.
