Our Home to be!




Well... this past week I went to Utah to find us a house. After deployment Randan's 4 years will be up and he's decided to get out. so we decided to find a house and move back to Utah! We decided there's no point in me staying in Cali when we would move after he got out so we're just getting a jump start on it! I l looked and looked with my realtor but there just wasn't much out there which was a surprise to me. And it ended up being a better deal for us to just build. So I picked our lot out in Washington Fields and all thats left is for them to build it and us to move in!! Its a big scary having it go up while we are in California, so my family will have to check on it for me! ;) Its pretty scary/stressful and very exciting! We have loved living in California and I'm so glad we got the opportunity to do so I know at times I will miss it, but we've both missed Utah and all our family! It works out perfect of when we will be moving. Randan's pre-deployment leave, my last day of summer semester, and when our apartment lease is up is all on August 12th! Its going to be pretty crazy but keep your fingers crossed that it all works out! ;) Here are some pictures of our lot, I know its just a big dirt pad and probably not exciting to you but I have to share anyways!
As for Randan he leaves to 29 palms for training July 5th- August 10th ish? he'll have his pre-deployment leave from August 12- August 29th. and then will deploy sometime shortly after that to Afghanistan. I think this one is actually going to be harder than the last for a few reasons, but I try not to think about it! I know I have wonderful family on both sides and great friends to put up with me which I am so grateful for! and I know Randan will be looked after! the pic of the playground/pavilion is in our subdivision. Its pretty cute little playground, pavilion, bball courts, and grass park! (sorry for such the long post)

I am so excited for you! I was surprised when dad told me you were coming to buy a house; when I talked to you when you were down a month ago, the plan was to stay in California. That is fabulous news, not just the house but also that your life can be "normal" with him not staying in the military. It's going to be a long year, though, for all of us.
