A Neat Freaks Worst Nightmare...

Our apartment is full of boxes and looks so messy!!  

I had decided that we should photo-document our moving but I have to admit that I picked up a little before taking the pictures. :) I've been avoiding packing but realized that our time is running out to get things together before the beginning of the month.  

Weekend Vacation

Last month Mike and I took a mini-vacation to Anaheim and with all the house excitement I haven't had a chance to blog about it.  The reason we went down to Anaheim was because we had tickets to the Trick or Treat event at California Adventures.  Mike and I met up with the Paxman's and their friends for the event.  Mike was not willing to dress up but I figured I'd be a good sport and went as the wicked witch from Snow White. 

(Check out Stacey's blog for all the good photos)

One nice part of our vacation was ROOM SERVICE!!  Yes the two penny pinchers actually paid too much for breakfast just so that we could be lazy for another couple hours.

This was a great weekend away from the stress of home buying and we ended up with a ton of candy!!

House Update

We will be closing escrow by November 24th.  We have been able to go in and start doing some repairs.  We are so excited and want to move in already.  The after pictures will be up at a later date.  Also we will let you know our actual address soon.

Perris Here We Come...

We got our house!!  Yesterday we got the call that our bid was accepted and the house is now ours.  Mike and I are both in shock but our families are super excited.  I don't think it will sink in until we have our keys and we are doing all the work of moving.  We are happy and ready to get to work making this our dream home!!

House Hunters

We recently decided that we should take advantage of the current housing market and found out that we could possibly afford a house.  So this past Thursday we started the hunt and it was an adventure.  Houses in our price range are either torn apart or in the ghetto.  Call us crazy but we actually fell in love with a house that needs some love (to say the least).  So we'll see what happens with this new adventure.

New Puppy: Rudy

While the boys were at the Priesthood session the Davey women went to dinner and then headed over to the Davies' home to visit with the new puppy!!

Scarlett liked the puppy but thought it was gross when the puppy "kissed" her toes.

The person who liked the dog most was Kaelyn!!  

The biggest shock was when Bonski conquered his fear of dogs and pet Rudy!!
