Here's to Newness!

So much of my life has changed in the past year its unbelievable. Especially in the last 3 months. I went from being a YW pres, full time employee and pregnant wife... to... quitting my job, losing my calling and becoming a home-bound stay at home mom (I say home-bound because I've been car-less since I had Emmett). And even still, I wouldn't trade anything for a million bucks. I love my new life.

But to top it all off, my parents are both moving to Korea next week for 2 years!

We took a week off over New Years to help them pack their house and get ready. But before we worked we had to play a little...we went to Island Park to their cabin first to ring in the new year!

And I just have to say, these pictures almost didn't happen. Mike took the SD card to work and lost it. But miracles do occur and he found it in the parking lot on the ground a few days later. So here ya go:

We ate lots of good food

We did a lot of sitting around

We did a little snowmobiling

And then we did a LOT of packing

Well, I shouldn't say 'we', as Emmett refused to pick up a box, and I being his mother had to make sure he didn't distract daddy too much.

Goodbye Big Sky Country!

Oh my gosh, Emmett has changed so much since Thanksgiving, he's turned into quite the handsome little chunk! I want to pinch those cheeks!

I can't believe that your parents are actually going. What a fun experience though. They will miss all of the grandkids so much. Looks like you had a good time at the cabin!
