We're alive and kicking... yes, all three of us!

Hello from Philly PA!!! (we're obviously not in Philly in the above picture, we're in Powell, which is where I'd always rather be!) I'm sorry for neglecting to update the blog for over a month now... it's a little embarrassing, but life has been so very busy and I have to admit that the blog has been on the bottom of my LONG "to do" list!! =) So we're sorry to anyone who's noticed the neglect!

We've had so much happen in that past 6-8 weeks that I'm not sure where to start! I'll just run through the past few weeks quickly, so we don't bore our readers to death! The move from Boston to Philly went really well (thanks to our brother Parker for all his help.) We were literally in our new apartment just long enough to unload the moving truck before we flew to Salt Lake for 3 1/2 weeks. We left the apartment full of boxes and in complete chaos, but it was well worth it.

Salt Lake was wonderful- it's always fun to spend time with family and friends. We spent a full week in Lake Powell and some time in Park City. We had three baby showers and tried to just relax and enjoy the pool before it was BACK TO SCHOOL, a new city and a new life on August 1st!!

Starting from where we left off... here we go, we're off to move to Philadelphia in the big yellow moving truck. We'll attend Business school there for the next two years...
I was sad to leave Boston but not to leave our stinky apartment. =)

Congratulations to Porter and Sara Allred!! Just one week after we RETURNED to Philadelphia we FLEW BACK to Salt Lake for two and a half short days to celebrate and attend our brother Porter's wedding. We would have just stayed in Salt Lake through August 9th (their wedding date) but Jo had to start school and couldn't miss!! It was a wonderful day for Porter and Sara and we were thrilled to be there. Welcome to the fam Sara and Congrats to you both!A beautiful reception was held in the Allred's front yard. It was awesome.

THIRTY ONE WEEKS PREGNANT!!! and getting closer and closer to October!! Can you believe how much I've grown??!!

Yes, I send my husband off to school with a brown sack lunch... on the first day of school I had to write his name on the bag with a black magic marker, it was too appropriate to pass up. As of this week we're just trying to figure out life in a new city and new apartment. We're still trying to get organized and familiar with all our new surroundings. We've found the Costco and been to our new ward... two important things to check off the list! Life feels completely nuts to us both right now, we haven’t moved out of the fast lane all summer long. I have four more weddings in Boston before Baby Boy arrives... lets hope that he stays cookin' in there until I'm done with all my work!! We still have a lot to do before this baby arrives... the nursery is currently the storage room. Anyone who's willing to fly to Philly and help with all the chaos will be treated to as many Philly Cheese steaks as they can eat!! Anyone?

While in Salt Lake in July, I had the opportunity to take BOTH my brother-in-laws engagement photos, my Sisters two adorable Kids, our cousins new baby girl, a good friends new baby... and I'm probably missing a few others. I spent a lot of time behind the lens, but I love using my camera on people that I love. I will post some of my favorites in our next post so look out for some new sassa art. That's it for today, Happy Sunday Everyone.
