Fun this summer

As most of you are aware, Chris and Ais and I are going to Italy this summer. I am so excited. This trip is my graduation present. We are going to see some great art and eat good food and walk tons!

I got some other good news yesterday!
I was accepted to present at a HUGE nursing conference this summer! It is really an honor to be chosen. I will be presenting the findings from my dissertation. The conference is sponsored by the international nursing honor society and will be held in Brisbane---Australia!
Yep--- 2 stamps in my passport this summer-
how did a girl get so lucky!?
;-)

finally picking a home

we have made 4 offers on 4 very different houses... all had multiple offers and we did not get any of them..... i thought this was a buyers market????
Anyway
we have decided to build a house--- well, not us personally!
We are having Feildstone Homes build. We will be in the Jordan Willows subdivision in Lehi.

this is the house... model 2141.

We will have an unfinished basement.
Check out the website to see the floor plan etc....
We are hoping to get all the paper work done this week so they can start building soon!
I promise to keep you up to date.
