We've got an accepted offer in on the Trolley house! On deck: meth test, general and FHA inspections, and hopefully closing if all looks good! While we wait, we've been looking at old photos of SLC. This is the Trolley house although the date it was taken escapes us.

We're experiencing some belated spring showers (and temperature) so it seems like a good excuse to watch it from the windows and update the blog. There have been a lot of changes around the Ranch lately. First, Tabitha and I took to the Super Pet Adoption like champs. Despite snow and terrible weather, we worked our charms on potential adopters. Las t Wednesday we had a play date with one of the couples we' d met there. the hipster glasses are hiding my tears They live a block away from the Trolley/Meth House we almost purchased and have an old friend Pekingese as well. They love antiques, renovated their Victorian, and are who I want to be when I grow up. In short, they were absolutely perfect. Which made adopting her out a little more sweet than bitter. It still broke my heart though. the Peke in her new digs We may be down a furry friend but in February we found out we're going to be + 1 tiny one. We're pregnant! The due date is November 11th but already w...

Utah~ We were babies when we met you. Newly married, freezing in 50 degrees, adventurous babies.  Now we're parents, well acclimated, sad to be possibly saying goodbye grown people.  There's no way to measure my adoration for your hikes or what we discovered along them. I'll never be able to relate the perfection that is picnic-ing and playing in any one of your parks. Small town parades and big fireworks will never be done better. I love the people who made us family and friends here. And Fall, well, Fall is just bliss. So I thank you for bringing me these people and places so I would stop crying in bungalow basements out of homesickness. You showed me how beautiful it could be to begin again. I'm channeling the 10th Doctor over here with an "I don't want to go!" I can't imagine Arizona ever being for me what you have been. But maybe when I'm crying in some non-basement Arizona will speak to me as you did and I will let it bec...

M-i-c, See You Real Soon... Though I had started my return trip to Kissimmee with the intention of retracing the steps of my younger self, I found it was much more enjoyable to just revisit what I could. Plenty of my favorite haunts were reincarnated as something else. My favorite bar was up for sale (gasp!). However, therein lies the beauty of Kissimmee. For every old memory there’s a new one waiting to be made. I was lucky to get to return, to find those old familiar buildings I always wished I’d gotten pictures of when I lived down the street. It was great to have time with family who I wish weren’t on the other side of the country. That is what Kissimmee is…a prefect backdrop for reconnecting and enjoying your vacation companions and scenery. The next time you find yourself there, make sure to take it all in. This is a city with so much to offer and one that reinvents itself constantly. There’s no way to return to that life you lead before but you can always count on...
