Life Update.

 I thought it was time for a quick every day life update. We are staying busy! I'm still in school at NWACC and that's keeping me very busy. Chris is busy with work, army and church and the kids are as busy as ever. 

Tucker and Tanner went to the temple together last week and then Tucker turned around and went again with his deacons quorum. 

I recently got to watch Benson's class showcase. It was pretty cute. It had been scheduled in January, but then the snowstorm hit and they had to postpone. It was super cute. They sang a song to the tune of "Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland" but it was all about learning at Elm Tree Elementary. They did a great job. 

Benson is always so happy to when I get to come to his school and I love seeing his smiley face. It's the best. I'm so proud of him and I'm trying to cherish every time I get to go spend tie with him at school because he's my last elementary aged-kid. 

Bailey and I are still having our monthly book club. It's such a fun tradition and we both love it. I know Bailey just loves the food and new book aspect, but I am grateful for the quality time I get with my girl. 

Also, Nanny and Papa have been coming over and looking at houses. We finally convinced them to move here and we've been helping them look at houses and talk to builders. Well last weekend we finally found a house for them. They signed a contract and the builders will be breaking ground this month. Then come August they will be moving here. We are so stinkin' excited. It's going to be so amazing having them live  here. 

After they signed their contract, we celebrated with lunch and then we went to Andy's. My parents love Andy's. It felt like the perfect way to celebrate.  

Their new house is going to be so gorgeous. Nanny's favorite part is that she didn't have to make any hard decision. This builder has a certain set of options for each floor plan. So Nanny and Papa bought a floor plan and then they were shown the counters, fixtures and everything else the house came with. She was so relieved she wouldn't have to make any hard decisions. 

Papa is definitely sad to be losing his shop, but since his balance is getting worse, it may be for the best. This new house is going to be a single story and a very open floor plan. It's perfect for them. 

Their new house will only be 7 minutes from my house and it's such a great location. It's going to be so amazing to have them so close. I can't wait!

Lastly, we recently went to Benson's Pinewood Derby. It was so cute. There were 23 little boys competing and they were loving life. They were cheering for each other, chanting each other's names and so hyped for each other. It was adorable. 

Benson came in 7th and while he was sad he didn't get a trophy, 7th out of 23 isn't too bad. 

He really just loved eating treats and hanging out with his friends. The Pinewood Derby is always a fun family event in our ward. 

Oh and after the little boys had their race, the Elder Quorum had a derby too. Chris raced Benson's car and he took 4th place. Pretty fun. 

Anyway, that's us right now. We are busy, healthy and happy!
