New House

Miriam happy about her room.

We've been greatly blessed. Thank you Heavenly Father.

The back of the house. It has a large deck and patio for all our friends and family to come over and visit and play with us. :)

This is the first picture we took on Jan. 1, 2010. 10 months later to the day we signed papers to buy it.


October 5, 2010 This is our first trip to the new house. Our Sailboat with the canoe on top of the van.---Just the way we moved to Rochester and back to Utah- however, before, it was our only trip. This time it was the first.

Up For Sale

I finally planted flowers where I thought there should be flowers the first day I saw this house and tomorrow it may snow.

Our NEW old house! I'm excited for the people who buy it.

The kitchen with new flooring that my friend Sheri helped me install. My friend Tiffany helped me with the countertop.


Remember the bathroom Cesar was remodeling?
My dad helped a ton on the bathtub. He tore out the old tile and did all the sheetrock work.

We'll see how the selling process goes. If it's anything like buying we're in for another lesson on patience.

Getting our house ready to sell

We installed a new tub and surround wall. My dad helped a lot too. Doesn't that look fun!

Still waiting!

A lesson in patience. We are still waiting to find out if the loan will go through. The children are really enjoying their new school. Cesar finished one test and now has only 5 weeks until he takes the pediatric boards test. We practically tore apart our house last week trying to prepare it for sale but we didn't finish putting it back together so now we are in a torn apart house waiting. We had fun painting the house, replacing the tub and tearing up the living room carpet and the kitchen linoleum. Now we have to finish all of those things. Probably won't happen until Cesar is "off-track again" So that's the update.

Just 2 Days til the Big Test

Three moms -15 children-all friends
On day 28 of 30 days straight of at least 12 hour days followed by the internal medicine boards exam. That is how Cesar is finishing. We've also gone under contract on 2 houses in the past 28 days. Still waiting. "Patience" I'm trying to tell myself. Be patient. Yes, yes, but I have been driving the boys to their new school for the past 3 weeks. Now they have three weeks until they start again. Could it be possible for us to move before they start again? I don't know. I hope so.

Looking for another house

The sellers of that house thought the appraisal was too low and don't want to sell. So now we're looking for another house. "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways, acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths. " Prov. 3:5-6 I have to wait and trust. No problem, right? In theory.
We put an offer on another house but we have to wait 30 days for that one so we'll see what happens. At the moment we are still in our house and Cesar has begun working at his new job. He likes it!! :) Now we just have to move closer once he takes the boards test.

Had a beautiful surprise today. My friend from Rochester with 5 boys called and came over. So great! I called Tiffany and she came too. Between the three of us we had 15 children. 5 each. Sooooo cool.

Isaac and Hyrum play soccer!

Isaac and Hyrum are both playing Summer Select soccer. My grandparents,dad and sister who sometimes came to my track meets when I was in junior high (flew from Provo to Tucson just to see me compete) stopped by on their way to a family reunion to watch my boys compete. Talk about showing support. I love feeling supported like that! Thank you family.:)
