27

Last week Devin turned 27!!!  We had a little tiny party for him with family and a couple of close friends.  Nothing big.  We ate hotdogs, chips, and had tres leches cake.  I just can’t believe how old we are getting.  I will be 27 in a couple months.  Time sure flies when you having fun!  I forgot to take a picture of the birthday boy. How terrible is that?!

AZ Science Center

Last week I took the kids to the AZ Science Center and Katie came along with us.  I thought it wouldn’t be too packed since we went on a weekday, but I was wrong.  There were a few different schools there for field trips.  I have been to the science center before, but it has been about 15 years.  It was fun but would have been a lot better if there weren’t so many kids running around and hogging all of the “hands-on” activities.  The best part about the science center was the planetarium.  It was amazing and the kids really enjoyed it.

Below Katie & Indy made houses and then created an earthquake.  Indy thought it was pretty neat.

Almost There

Lately I have had the song “Almost There” from The Princess and the Frog stuck in my head.  I guess it’s because we are “almost there!”  Just about 14 more weeks and we will be moving down to Mexico.  Devin is going to farm with his dad.  We have been talking about this day since we were dating!  Devin said all he ever wanted to be when he grew up was a farmer, just like his dad.  I love the LDS Colonies in Mexico.  When I was in high school I went down there quite a bit to visit friends.  I even attended Devin’s senior prom!  Although, I wasn’t his date.  We are just so excited to live down there next to family and be at that next stage in our lives.   Devin graduates from ASU in May, so that is when we are moving.  Ever since we were engaged we have had a lot of “almost there’s”.  Waiting for our wedding day to arrive, then waiting for a semester of school to end, waiting for summer to end so a new semester would start, waiting to get pregnant, waiting for that baby to arrive, waiting during another pregnancy, etc.  I know we have a lot more “almost there’s” to look forward to in the future.  And I can’t wait!
