So we have been in Utah for 2 weeks! It's been different, exciting, tiresome, and enjoyable. Because BYU is out for summer, there seems to be no traffic and it feels like I am living in a very small town. I grew up near Provo and I do not remember it being to quiet. Maybe it's because I am now a mom and don't go out looking for "fun" like I did when I was a teen!
The house is coming along. I would have loved to have painted a few walls before the furniture arrived, but the furniture arrived when we did so I will have to paint later. The landscaping is...overwhelming. The previous owners of our home loved wild flowers. I'm gonna be honest, I didn't know what was a weed and what was a plant/flower. A neighbor down the street came over and educated me on most of the plants in my yard. I even planted a few tomato plants (pat and I). I can't wait till I can eat those!
The girls are adjusting nicely. Arianna has found a friend who lives a few houses away. Most of the neighborhood is older. That's fine with me, but doesn't help my kids with playmates much.
Anyone is welcome to visit! I have missed my California friends terribly. Life goes on, I know, but I sure grew to love that state...still do!
