Forbis: October 2010

Kevin mentioned that his really good friend thought we should start a blog and asked what I thought about it. I wanted to start one back when, but I just didn't do it. What a perfect time to start one together. So, starting a blog is awful especially when I'm so indecisive. Kevin thought using 4bizzle.blogspot would be funny, of course I didn't like it and that is because I wasn't getting the concept until he thought of 4bisfarm.blogspot. it dawned to me what he was trying to do. Its actually quite funny, I sure need to learn to trust him a little more. And come to find out, there is a forbizzle.blogspot and their last name is Forbes, we thought it was kind of funny.

Its crazy how summer flew by and fall seems like it's slipping from our fingers. Summer was eventful and memorable, we got married, went to the most beautiful place on earth, Hawaii. My family came up and we went to WY to see our cousins and old missionary that served in St. David that lives there. We went to the scrapbooking expo, Oprah, plays, and the Greek Festival. I was able to attend the Relief Society Conference with my sister-in-law, Tiff and her friends.  My parents came back up and we went to my cousin Ty's wedding down in the Provo area. We went to Idaho- Rexburg to see where Kevin went to school and to see his friends that lives there. And we went to Boise to help out Kevin's aunt, I must say his aunt is amazing with the things she can whip up. Boise was a pretty city. We stopped somewhere in between Boise and Twin Falls, to meet his Grandpa and Grandma.... The place we stopped at was, hmmm, lets say that's where all the hillbillies hang. It was that bad, I don't think we would ever eat there after all we found out the cook was DRUNK! Then we went to Twin Falls to see his aunt Amy.

Now, the up-date....We've been living in Mendon, Ut. Its pretty but it's getting cold; thank goodness I'm in Arizona visiting, but its only gonna get colder when I get back! BLEH! We have 7 lovely chickens, and we get 7 eggs everyday. They're great minus the poop everywhere! Sophie, our niece, loves to chase them and walk around in the coop, she's a silly girl. We built a coop for the chickens, it was kind of fun. It looks great. Kevin sure is a handy man, GOOD THING. We also had two nephews instead of one niece and nephew at the end of September. I've been learning some new skills while Kevin learns how to be more self-sufficient. I've been canning jams and applesauce and scrapbooking, I actually really enjoy it. All Kevin talks about these days is Kentucky, he really wants to move there and start a farm, and I think it'll be fun and an adventure. We have so many plans for ourselves and can't wait until they come through.
As for work, we're waiting for the contracts to come through so we can move to Tucson, if that doesn't work, we want to open up a thrift/book store in Mesa/Gilbert area, and I'll go back to school before we start having any kids! It'll only become more difficult when we do.
We've put our records in the deaf branch and love it there. We've met some great people in the branch. And Kevin was recently called to be the financial clerk. It has helped/pushed Kevin to learn more sign language.

I've been in Arizona for about a week and half, its been nice to be home. It would be better if Kevin was here with me. I came home to see Preston play his football game since its his senior year and it was my Grandma's 80th birthday.  Its the perfect time to be home because my mom's birthday is today and I'm able to celebrate it with her. Since I've been home, I've been getting all my favorite meals, which are YUMMY. Its been great! I was able to see our new nephews, all kiddos are just so adorable.

Here are some pictures of our festivities... Enjoy!
