Oscar’s First Bike

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

This pictures was taken awhile back but I think it is great. We bought a bike for Oscar from Wal-Mart the week after we moved into our new house. We bought the bike but he wanted to ride his bike as soon as possible. So since we now live only about 4/5 blocks from Wal-Mart, [...]

New Home

Friday, October 31st, 2008

We’ll need to put up some photos up because we haven’t yet. But we are pretty happy with the home. We are starting to get more comfortable in the home. We have our internet, cable, and phone set up. We have been canning the pears, apples (sauce and juice), and concord grape juice. Marlene is [...]

We’ve Arrived

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

We can say tonight that we’ve indeed arrived at our new home in Orem, UT. We are sleeping here tonight and we have probably 95% of our stuff moved too. We’re happy with boxes and not knowing where everything.

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

Looks like we’ll be signing the loan and closing paperwork on Thursday. That was the best time when it worked for everyone. We’ll be homeowners. We are excited. We’ve been trying to pack up and get things ready for the move to Orem. Crazy, how time flys.

Cutco Cutlery: We’ve finally made the plunge

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

Growing up I loved my parents knives: Cutco Cutlery. But I didn’t think that I’d ever spend the money to buy them. Well someone from the ward referred this Cutco salesman to us to come by and give us a presentation. I thought that I’ve heard about Cutco from my brothers since they both sold [...]

Move to Provo

Monday, July 24th, 2006

Well in a major turn of events for our home buying days, we have now decided against buying the condo in Pleasant Grove (due to some FHA loan hang ups due to the land being a wetland). We have, however, decided to rent a home in Provo. It is again near the North Park on [...]
